LIVE, In-Person at Wudang West
Exclusive VIP Tea Ceremony
2 Amazing Teachers! 1 Incredible Afternoon!

Join us tomorrow at the Wudang West Cultural Heritage Center for an afternoon of cultivation and care designed to help you align with the seasonal shift from Autumn to Winter. Led by esteemed Shifu, David Wei, and Shereel Washington, this workshop will blend movement, massage, meditation, and medicinal herbs to support our Lung and Kidney systems—the two organs most affected by this transition.

More than just instruction, this workshop offers renewal. Participants will learn practical tools to strengthen their immunity, calm their minds, and replenish their energy reserves before the Winter chill sets in. For those wishing to dive deeper, you are invited to the VIP Tea Tasting—a special kung fu tea ceremony and Q&A session with both instructors. Please note that space for this private experience is limited to just five guests, so be sure to register in the checkout window.

We are pleased to share that all proceeds from this event will go toward ongoing post-stroke recovery care for Sammuel Washington, the beloved husband of co-instructor Shereel Washington. Through your precious presence and participation, you help sustain both healing and hope, transforming this seasonal gathering into an intimate ceremony of communal care.

It is always an honor to teach Black North American Herbalism. For the past five years, I have been privileged to share this transformative class in various herbal institutions and programs. The course continues to evolve, and I have taught many inspiring variations of this material. Just yesterday, I spent the day with both Community and Apprentice students as we passionately explored this vast field of study. Black North American Herbalism is a rich course with many components and areas of focus. Although we covered a great deal, we barely scratched the surface. One day, a book will emerge to illuminate this important subject, so be on the lookout!
