Internal Martial Arts

In Martial Arts training we stress applications and partner exercises. We use special Dantian (Field of Cinnabar) methods to awaken the Dantian by personal guidance. Private lessons are possible.
Taoist Culture
Understanding Chinese Taoist culture is very important as a background information in your Neidan, Internal Martial Arts or Qigong, and Neigong training.
You will learn about the history of Taoism, Confucianism, and Buddhism and how they relate to one another. Classical Chinese Language lessons are also possible, enabling you to read the ancient Chinese texts.

Become the Mountain that Can Withstand Every Storm in Life
Life sometimes isn't easy. Taoists aspire to be like a long-living, enduring mountain. Due to the storms that happen in everyone's life, you can get seriously hurt or damaged, but with the right training you can overcome these difficulties. Your mountain may lose every tree that grows on it, but it won't perish. This is an ancient Taoist view of the body, which lies at the basis of the so-called Neijingtu, the chart of the body's internal circulations. If you nourish your inner self by keeping your balance, you can become a stable mountain in the busy and chaotic world around us.
