    Taking a calligraphy class from Master Guo Baoqing was my favorite experience during my 4 weeks in Beijing. Master Guo's teaching style is supportive and hands-on, which allowed me to connect with the process right away. In addition, I learned how the calligraphy system evolved historically and gained an appreciation for the expressive nature of Chinese writing. Master Guo's credentials are incredible (leading many professional organizations, academic advisor, and official calligrapher for 2008 Olympics greetings) and you will have an amazing lesson that will be a highlight of your trip.
