About the event
This class combines music, physical exercises, and origami instruction. Music sets the mood and stimulates your hearing, while the colors of the paper engage your visual senses. Accurately folding paper strengthens your finger muscles and builds muscle memory, and memorizing the folding steps stimulates your brain. Understanding the logic behind origami patterns enhances your geometric insight, and the act of folding improves your focus and emotional control.
Creating an origami piece from memory using a single sheet of paper provides a tangible sense of accomplishment and joy. This practice serves as a therapeutic exercise and a form of joyful meditation.
Age Group: Adults
