TaoTouch Chi Nei Tsang Training Retreat in Orizon Center Akrimios, Crete, Greece
We are delighted and excited about the Crete Retreat in Summer 2025!
Join us for a transformative immersion into Classical Taoist practices, Chi Kung internal alchemy, and hands-on TaoTouch Chi Nei Tsang. The setting of Orizon Center for Life & Creation, on the amazing, powerful island of Crete, Greece, is the perfect place to dive into these practices and into one’s self, while extending your chi to help others heal from within. Taught by the master practitioner and instructor Gilles Marin.
The Crete Retreat is not simply a training retreat. It is equally, if not moreso, a personal experience where the conditions and practices set the environment for an inner healing journey. The retreat begins with 5 days of TaoTouch Extraordinary Chi Kung, an introduction to classical Taoist health and healing philosophy and functional practices coming from a martial arts approach of winning without fighting.
The order of classes allows students to start building a foundation of knowledge, understanding, and observation of your own level of Chi so you can begin to welcome, experience, and utilize Universal Forces safely and with compassion for yourselves and the people who you work with, whether fellow students or future clients.
The training includes all hands-on TaoTouch Chi Nei Tsang techniques and Chi Kung practices including Healing Buddha Palms, Space and Boundaries Chi Kung, Lessons from Aikido Martial Arts Approach, Fusion Meditation, and Sleeping and Dreaming Chi Kung, along with the systematic inclusion of the use of the Biology of Consciousness.
There will be two-day breaks in between modules to allow for assimilation… and to enjoy the amazing island!
