Palo Alto Library hosted a BTS-themed program in May just before they visited Stanford for the Arirang Tour. We had an afternoon of crafts, dancing, and music!

from K-Pop-Up lead a “Swim” dance workshop where attendees of all ages had fun learning the moves - first at slower speed then normal speed. How do you think they did?

Join us for Tai Chi sessions with Nelson Ng every Sunday outside Rinconada Library from 10:00am - 12:00pm. In this weekly class, participants will learn the basic principles and the philosophy behind Tai Chi, gaining flexibility and a better sense of balance through slow, gentle movement.

Nelson started learning Chen’s Tai Chi in 1989 from Master Gene Chen, who was a disciple of Grandmaster Feng ZhiQiang. Nelson has been teaching since 2014.
