EasyFor people looking to exercise their minds more than their bodies. There’s minimal walking and not too many stairs.
ModerateThese programs get you on your feet and include activities such as walking up to a mile in a day through a city and standing in a museum for a few hours.
ActiveFor people who enjoy walking as much as two miles a day, perhaps to explore historic neighborhoods or a nature trail.
Moderately ChallengingFor hardy explorers who enjoy a good physical challenge, spending most of their days on the go.
ChallengingGet ready to keep up with our highest-energy group. These demanding — and rewarding — programs are for seasoned outdoor enthusiasts.
Explore the history of the world’s most ancient and populous country. Examine the dynamic changes that have taken place in a culture where traditional philosophy and religion and modern political ideologies intersect and their impact on the people of China. We’ll also learn about the arts and elements of Feng Shui.


Highlights

• Discuss the lingering impacts of Confucianism, communism, and capitalism on China’s goals and their meaning for us all.
• Focus on a different element of Feng Shui each day. Translated “wind over water” Feng Shui is an ancient art of energy in time and space that has informed Chinese architecture and acupuncture for thousands of years.
• Apply your ideas to your personal living/working spaces and create/collage pages including your own personal energy map to make a book.

Activity Notes

Minimal walking and standing on this program.
