This workshop will explore the roots of Ba Gua Zhang as a circle walking practice of Daoist Moving Meditation. It will specifically focus on how Ba Gua Zhang physically and energetically manifest the eight basic patterns of change, which are symbolized by the eight trigrams of the Yi Jing, or Chinese Classic of Change. Students will learn how working with those change patterns can help them to deal with change in their lives and how to experience the Yi Jing on physical and energetic levels as well as the more common intellectual study of the Yi Jing. This understanding of the roots of the art can be applied to all styles of Ba Gua Zhang and learned by Practitioners of all levels.
