7th Int. Shaolin - Taiji & Qi Gong Camp in Greece

The 7th International Shaolin Kung Fu & Qi Gong retreat for 2024 which took place in the second week of July was successfully completed. We are especially honored by the visit of people from other countries who have been coming for years to the expedition and not only continue what they have learned but also they have excellent progress. The training week was full of practice not only with Kung Fu but also Qi Gong as the day started with the traditional sets of Yin Jin Jing (Tendon Muscle Change) or Ba Duan Jin (Eight Pieces of Silk) and ended with other Qi Gong exercises such as "Tui Na" breathing, internal restoration methods such as "Liu Jiu Jie" etc. The main course held in the morning and afternoon included learning Xin Yi Quan (Heart and Mind Fist), Bao Quan (Leopard Imitation) and Qi Xing Tang Lang Quan (Praying Mantis of the 7 Stars). The practice took place outdoor in the deep shade of the plane trees of Lake Doxas, after the lesson there was a daily dip in the unique, crystal clear waters of Lake Doxas for refreshing and cooling off. At the end of the camp, the participants enjoyed the activities of the famous lake (ride on a water bike, visit to the local monastery of Agios Georgios, etc.) and they left with the best impressions of both training and place where it took place. Another great experience for everyone!
