Welcome to Long Tou Shan Tai Chi School
We invite you to experience the depth and satisfaction of studying traditional Chinese internal arts in a place where practice, nature, and daily life come together.
Located in the renowned landscape of Yangshuo in southern China, Long Tou Shan Tai Chi School was founded in 2006 as a place for dedicated study, personal development, and connection to the roots of Tai Chi (Taijiquan) and Qigong.
Here, training is not separate from the environment. Surrounded by mountains, orchards, and overlooking the Li River, students are supported not only by skilled instruction, but by the rhythm and quiet of the natural world.
Lineage & Teaching
The school was founded by Master Luo Mei Juan (Mei), a 7th Duan Master of the Chinese Wushu Association. Today, instruction is also carried forward by Master Zhou Da Zhu, continuing a family tradition of practice and teaching.
Students train in both Chen and Yang styles of Tai Chi, alongside Qigong practices that support internal development, balance, and awareness. Classes are intentionally kept small to allow for personal guidance, regardless of experience level.
The Experience
Long Tou Shan offers an environment designed for focused training and simple living:
- daily instruction in traditional Tai Chi and Qigong
- an emphasis on health, internal development, and practical application
- A welcoming space for all ages, abilities, and levels of experience
- A quiet, rural setting that supports immersion and consistency in practice
Students may stay for a short visit or a longer period of study, with the flexibility to shape their experience over time.
Living & Environment
Life at the school is intentionally simple and supportive:
- Comfortable, clean rooms with modern amenities
- Three nourishing meals daily, primarily vegetarian
- Practice spaces overlooking the mountains and river
- An outdoor swimming pool
- A peaceful countryside setting, with Yangshuo town nearby when needed
The surrounding landscape is not just scenic—it is part of the training experience itself.
A Place to Begin or Deepen
Whether you are new to Tai Chi or have been practicing for many years, the school welcomes you as you are. Some arrive seeking health and balance. Others come to deepen their understanding of internal arts.
What unites them is the opportunity to step into a way of life where practice becomes part of each day.
