Taoist Wellness

 

       Recently, more and more people, not only from China but also from other coutries, come to know about Wudang Mountains. Westerners spell it in various ways: Wudang or Wu Dang; Wutang or Wu Tang; Wudan or Wu Dan; Wutan or Wu Tan …

They first knew of the name most probably because of the name of a famous music band: Wu Tang Clan. It is said that the band got its name enlightened from an ancient Chinese martial art from Wu Tang Mountain.

Chinese call it Wudang Shan, shan being mountain. It is located in the northwest part of central China’s Hubei Province.Wudang Shan (Mountain) is famous as a sacred land for Chinese Taoism (Daoism) and original place of Tai Chi Chuan. Talking about Chinese Wushu, there has early been a saying:

Bei Chong Shaolin, Nan Zun Wudang

Translated into English, it means: (People in the martial arts circle) esteem the Shaolin style in the North and respect the Wudang style in the South.

As time goes on, especially in the times when human being’s attack or defense has largely depended on weapons or technology, the function of wushu has conciously or unconciously shifted to physical or spiritual wellness. If Shaolin style, representative style for Wai Jia or external Kong Fu, still appeals people for the effect of attack or defense, Wudang style, representative style for Nei Jia or internal Gong Fu, lays strong emphasis in human wellness as its tradition did.

INVITATION LETTER

TO TV REPORTERS, MAGAZINE JOURNALISTS AND PRIVATE FILM MAKERS

 

Wushu?Yes! We teach wushu;

Kungfu? Yes! We also teach kungfu.

But

in Master Gu’s centre, Wushu or Kungfu is not the focus!

What is our focus then?

It is internal alchemy practice and the Taoist culture,

which is regarded as the genuine legacy of

The Wudang Mountains!

 

Dear friends from among the TV reporters, magazine or newspaper journalists and private film makers:

  I am the founding director of the Wudang Taoist Culture Centre, with a team of professors, scholars, instructors, coaches. They are from such different fields as Taoist philosophy, religion, Taoist architecture, Gong Fu ( Kung Fu), Yangsheng, Taoist music, the language, calligraphy and so on.. I myself run a Taoist wellness centre named SHINING DAOJIA YANGSHENG GUAN. My aim is to help those seeking the secret of longevity and wellness in a Taoist way.

  I really expect more people would join us in the practice on the celestial mountains. The Chinese character for immortal ( sounds xian) is made up of a person (sounds ren) and a mountain (sounds shan). My centre is exactly located in the place where you can shoot all those amazing archetuctures and the Taoist life, the practise, the dieting and every aspects.

  Thanks to the fact that we are both Taoist practicers and excellent English speakers, which is quite rare in other kung fu schools, we can help to the greatest degree to explore deeper in the mountain andreveal the secrets of the Tao !

 

If
you’ve meant to find an institution in which
you can expect to find tour plan, Taoist yangsheng tai chi or chi kung demonstration, activity arrangement and,
of course, English translation or interpretation all together…

Yes,
find me, Gu Shiyi,
the founding director of the Wudang Taoist Culture Centre!

 

I know how to avoid those touristy places as I’m familiar with many hidden ancient paths; I know who to meet with to obtain rich content for your film; I know where to find ideal angle to make the best effect as I have companied many domestic film makers.

To make it short, It's all correct decision you should contact me

3-YEAR LONGEVITY AND WELLNESS PROGRAM

IN CENTRAL CHINA’S WUDANG MOUNTAINS

FOR WOULD-BE INSTRUCTORS ALL OVER THE WORLD

 

DURATION
Oct 23, 2012 – Oct 21, 2015

Why 3 years?

At first, all those numbers which are the multiples of 3 are regarded good-luck numbers in Taoism, like 3, 6, 9, 36, 72. Practically speaking, duration of 3 years is a must for those who are going to work as wellness instructors but longer duration might be hard for many people no matter how they wish. As a matter of fact, if you are serious learner and make full use of your time, 3 years is quite enough ! If you wanna learn Mandarin while here, it’s also a good idea.

Why from Oct 23, 2012 to Oct. 21, 2015?

These two dates are both September 9 according to Chinese lunar calendar and such a day is said to be the date marking the fullfilment of Zhenwu’s cultivation on the sacred mountain. Master Gu will tell you more about the story when you have arrived! So Sep. 9 also reminds you of an inspiring story!
