Come and experience the daily rituals of the Song Dynasty’s Scholars (960-1280 A.D.) -- their practice of “hanging pictures, brewing tea, burning incense, and arranging flowers” extends beyond just the mere activity, but how these customs influence our lives on an emotional, spiritual, and intellectual level is a realm which warrants further exploration.  Your child will learn to understand and appreciate the philosophies of Ancient Chinese scholasticism, and become a brilliant young scholar of the modern society.
