 The magic square is a Chinese grid of numbers whose coherence form a measured pattern of integration and dexterity. When the magic square is presented flat, it resembles a tic tac toe board, but when regarded with dimension it is a cube, becoming synonymous with the body, whose possession of legs, arms, torso and head provides the idea of being personally embodied; the idea of being contained.

Moving through the route of the magic square organizes us in time and space. For the structure of anything, determines how it functions. Join us to uncover the magic of the map that underpins our entire practice and to explore how to use the it as a tool in your practice, teaching, life and beyond.
