Classes:

Dancing Brush offers a class with a twist. While learning oriental calligraphy, that trains your hand, you will also learn the meditative art of Tai Chi. My premise is if I can get your body to move your mind will follow. I teach the Five Element form of Tai Chi that I learned from Chung Liang Al Huang. Those of you that are wanting to develop your right brain as a relaxation from hours of left brain work all day, this is your class. I offer Private Lessons, just call to schedule a mutually convenient time. Come once or for years. Every lesson is individually based. I supply the materials. Come and pay as you go, $65 per 1.5 hour session, $85 for two people...two hours, $105 for three...two hours, etc.  A right brain approach is a must.

Suggestions:

Arrange for a private lesson with your child or grandchild or friend Gift certificates available.
Call Dancing Brush.  See below.

Is the Giant Brush for you?

Saturday, September 8, 2007 — A unique opportunity

Zen circle, with the brush at left.

On September 8, Dancing Brush offers an unheard-of chance for you to try out the fabled giant brushes from China.

We recently received a number of giant brushes bearing the Dancing Brush name. Bristle diameters range up to 3½ inches and lengths to 9 inches. The handles are up to 33 inches long. To help us evaluate and recommend these exotic brushes, you can try many of them in a private all-day workshop.

Enjoy the day in a relaxing and creative atmosphere at Rosemary KimBal’s Artist’s Studio in Cardiff by the Sea. 10 am to 4 pm, with lunch included. Plan to wear dark clothes, as sumi (ink) is permanent.

Space is limited due to the size of the brushes and the paper needed. Interest has been great prior to announcement but a few places remain. (Also, we can wait-list you in case someone can’t make it.)

Dare to dare. Call 760-943-7496 or email Dancing Brush for details.
