As we transition out of Winter, the season of Water, and into Spring, life is revitalized by the exuberance and determination of Wood. 

The Wood Phase is marked by the smooth process of becoming. Like the first green sprouts bursting above the soil’s grasp, or the wayward weed miraculously whirling its tender face through cracks in the sidewalk, Wood is the energy of germination, birth, arousal, creativity, imagination, passion, growth, determination, and hope. Wood is that which propels all lifeforms into the active manifestation of their authentic nature and destiny.

We will explore this Wood phase of the Five Phases

(Wu Xing) through breath, movement and interactive lecture.

Wood correlates with the Liver and its paired organ, the Gallbladder.
