SUMMARY:Mizuhiki Demonstration by Kaori Funaki
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a free demonstration of mizuhiki\, the centuries-old art of decorative knot-tying\, led by Kaori Funaki in the Jordan Schnitzer Japanese Arts Learning Center. Through this thoughtful program\, you’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of the symbolism behind mizuhiki and new inspiration for adding beauty and meaning to your gift-giving. Mizuhiki (水引lit. “water pull”) is made of twisted washi paper cords. This artform dates back to the 7th century\, when envoys to China during the Sui Dynasty brought back gifts to Japan that were wrapped in red and white hemp strings. Following this exchange\, offerings to the Imperial Palace began to be wrapped in red and white threads\, and mizuhiki soon developed into a deeply rooted element of Japanese gift-giving culture. It is most commonly used to decorate gift envelopes during holidays and special occasions\, with each style of knot and color of thread carrying significant meaning and ultimately symbolizing the connections between people. Mizuhiki’s unique characteristics have since inspired artists to craft new and complex patterns to create intricate sculptures\, accessories\, and decorations—and also inspired the logo for Japan Institute of Portland Japanese Garden. Included with garden admission.

SUMMARY:Tai Chi for Better Balance
DESCRIPTION:Many tai chi moves use images from nature—stable as a pine\, flowing like a river\, hands moving as clouds. Enjoying tai chi in the Arboretum allows us to connect deeply to that imagery. Each week we will explore movements which are relaxing\, help improve focus and balance\, and nurture rooted in the moment. This event is coordinated by Hoyt Arboretum and registration is required through their website.

SUMMARY:Qigong
DESCRIPTION:Looking to slow down\, breathe deeper\, and move with intention? Join instructor Steven for a calming Qigong session beneath the canopy of the Hoyt Arboretum. Qigong (pronounced “chee-gong”) is an ancient practice from Chinese medicine that combines gentle movements\, breathwork\, and mindful posture to cultivate a deep sense of inner peace. The low-impact meditative nature makes it great for all levels whether you’re looking to reduce stress\, improve balance\, or feel a little more grounded. Come move with the rhythm of nature and leave feeling refreshed—body and mind. This event is coordinated by Hoyt Arboretum and registration is required through their website.
