Walk Your Own Path’ is a unique 93-days workshop in Asia (India or Bali -Thailand-China.) It is a great opportunity for those who

Buddhism and Taoism from the inside.

The program offers:

Physical and mental journey into one's primitive self, to find and grow his or her inherited natural talents. Visits to landmarks of the three ancient philosophies: Hinduism, Buddhism and Taoism. An energetic tropical environment that in a subtle and harmonized way forms a part of the Wuyiquan training.

Adventures hiking, exciting boat trips and magic ceremonies. Plenty of free time to relax on beaches, spa's or just do nothing.

The Sabbatical leave theme:

Walk Your Own Path is chosen because the aim of the workshop is to bring people back on their own path, which many have left during their career or private commitments. The sabbatical leave can be the beginning of a more self-driven way of living. During the many sub-workshops you can personally experience that life can be lived from many different perspectives.

Seven reasons to take our Sabbatical Leave:

1/ To recharge your batteries physically and mentally

2/ To take time for your self without feeling guilty.

3/ To find the pleasure, inspiration or creativity back in your work or private life.

4/ To prudent avoid burnout.

5/ To seek and find the balance between work and private.

6/ To accomplish long cherished wishes and dreams.

7/ To discover an other way of living or having enough time for foreign countries. 

Who can join our workshop?

Anyone who wants to work on self-improvement in an inspiring, relaxed and at the same time active way. People who are interested in ancient martial arts and other forms of health improvement and practice it on a daily base. Persons who want to speed up their comeback to society from a burnout, stress or being overworked.

Health conditions:

Prospect participants are advised to discuss their plan to join this sabbatical leave with their personal physician for a health checkup and medical advise on what vaccinations to take and what medicines to carry for a three month stay in Asia. They need general good health, so they will be able to carry their own backpack during trekking and walks, and can sit or sleep in a train or bus on longer trips. Participants need to be equipped with a good functioning internal digesting system which is able to process all kinds of delicious exotic food and survive on it. 

Number of participants in the group:

We prefer to travel with a small group ranging from only 8 to 12 people. This provides the groups with a perfect combination of intimacy and flexibility. The small size of the group guarantees that everyone get his or her individual attention and personal coaching during the trip and training. This way we also can provide authentic cultural experiences and pleasant surprises that can only be enjoyed with a harmonized group. We allow the group to slow down and appreciate the unexpected and as much flexibility as possible within the arranged itinerary.
