About
Chinese Stands out as one of the most distinctive language compared to English.
Whether you are visiting China, exploring Chinatown, or spending time with
Chinese people, having a basic grasp of Chinese language can be quite beneficial
in unfamiliar settings and may also prevent potential misunderstandings.
Practiced for over 3000 years, Chinese calligraphy is a time-honored and beloved
art form with devoted fans worldwide. Our enthusiastic and knowledgeable
instructors will guide you through the basic Chinese words, such as 日 “sun” 月
“moon” 山“mountain” 川“river”, as well as 喜“joy” and 福“luck”. You will learn to
use the brush and create your own piece of art.
