SHAOLIN RETREAT 2026 (For All ZYQ Practitioners & Personal Students)

Dear ZYQ Community,

We are delighted to invite you to the Shaolin Retreat 2026 with Grandmaster Xu Mingtang.

The Shaolin Retreat offers a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in a deep state of silence and dedicated practice within the Zhong Yuan Qigong system. Held at the legendary Shaolin Monastery, this retreat takes place in a powerful environment unlike any other. For many centuries, the monastery has been a center of profound meditation, Chan Buddhism practice, and the martial art of Kung Fu, nurturing generations of great masters and their disciples.

Practice and meditation during the retreat focus on calming the mind, releasing persistent thoughts, and maintaining awareness in a quiet and balanced state. This allows you to begin exploring your inner world — a deep, versatile, and complex system. Each day features fascinating lectures by Grandmaster Xu Mingtang, which improve your understanding of life and strengthen your meditation practice.

As you journey into the depths of your consciousness, you may encounter many beautiful and pleasant moments, as well as challenging experiences. Through continued meditation practice, it becomes possible to access a state of being that goes beyond the limits of ordinary happiness.

Each year, the Shaolin visit is organized into two separate retreats, each with a different focus and program.
