10th Annual
Zhong Xin Dao I Liq Chuan
Summer Camp in Poland
July 12-19, 2020 

Join us in the beautiful Polish countryside, as we explore Zhong Xin Dao I Liq Chuan, the art of Grandmaster Sam F.S. Chin! All levels are invited to join us, from complete beginners to advanced practitioners!

This year’s camp will again be held at Dwór Zaścianek, a traditional Polish inn, nestled in the woods of eastern Poland. Dwór Zaścianek is the perfect location to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life and to focus on training. Come and enjoy Polish hospitality and cuisine, and train with an amazing community of people from around the world!

If you are flying into Poland, please let us know your flight information, and we will assist you in traveling from Warsaw to the camp. Please note that we have arranged for a shuttle bus to transport people to and from the summer camp location and Warsaw – if you would like to reserve your seat, please let us know via email. There is an additional fee for this service. If you wish to take the shuttle bus, please arrive in Warsaw on Saturday 11th of July 2020, so that you may take the shuttle bus early on Sunday morning.

The Training

During this 8-day intensive (up to 70 hours of training!) you will explore Zhong Xin Dao I Liq Chuan system, the art of Grandmaster Sam F.S. Chin. Throughout these 8 days of concentrated practice, you will deepen your understanding of yourself, as well as your relationship with the world around you. Grading will also be available for those who wish to test for their next student level.

This year we will be focusing on the nature of awareness, the elements of internal practice, Absorb-Project & Condense-Expand, and the Four Strategies. The Zhong Xin Dao approach is the method that is used to recognize and realize the conditions as they are, their limits, the process of change, and the nature of awareness itself. We will train to see that each movement, each application, is merely an effect of the process of balancing yourself, propelled through your own Unification of the Mental and Physical.

Early Morning Training: Qigong and Meditation with Instructor Irek Zareba
In Zhong Xin Dao we train to be present in order to see the moment itself, to recognize things as they are. We work with Mental Balance and Physical Balance. The mental balance is Mindfulness, the concentration of attention to be still, so that we may see clearly. Meditation is a direct observation with attention. Every day before breakfast you will have the opportunity to open your body and still your mind with an hour of qigong and meditation, the ideal environment to develop the right quality of attention required to train.

Morning Training: Four Strategies with Instructor Joshua Craig
Every morning you will focus on the Four Strategies to propel Engagement (Circle with Center, Center to Center, Center with the Cross) using a selection of movements and applications. During this time, you will have the chance to work with a variety of partners, developing your ability to maintain attention both on yourself and at the point of contact.

Afternoon Training: 21 Form and Butterfly Form
Each afternoon you will focus on the forms of Zhong Xin Dao I Liq Chuan. Our foundation training includes two short forms, the “21 Form” and the “Butterfly Form”. The forms were designed as vehicles through which you may see, recognize and realize the principles of Nature in action. The forms are more challenging than the 15 Basic Exercises, involving continuous changes, asking you to expand your awareness even further. This training will help you to recognize and flow with these changes, while being conscious of your own structure, relaxation, and energy.

You will train to establish your own Center by balancing and maintaining the Six Directions and the Three Dimensions, with all movement having the Macrocosmic Energy and Complementary Yin and Yang. This is the Spinning Force of Coordination. When your awareness is steady and strong, you will be able to align and extend the Spinning Force to the point of contact and be able to begin the process of Unifying Yourself with the Opponent.

Early Evening Training: Grading Preparation with Instructor Wlodek Hrymniak
Every evening you will be able to train for your next grading. During this time, you will have the chance to work with a variety of partners, developing your ability to maintain attention at the point of contact. Next, we will divide the group into different levels and we will review the grading requirements for each. Depending upon the number of participants grading, a variety of other instructors may assist you.

By the end of this 8-day immersion, you will clearly understand the Zhong Xin Dao Learning Process, have a complete home practice method, as well being capable of recognizing the universal principles of human movement in action!

We look forward to you joining us this year!

 

Below you will find a few testimonials from our last summer camp:

The welcome appeal was amazing. In the adult world, it is rare to join together with other adults and get along so well, with genuine compassion for one another. I do appreciate that all of the teachers have an invested interest in who you are as a person and are helping you achieve your own personal advancements. (Nicole W. from Canada)

The camp was awesome! Joshua and the assistant trainers’ excellent teaching, beautiful accommodation site, delicious food every day, fellow trainees’ camaraderie…I thoroughly enjoyed it and am grateful for Joshua and Magda for organizing this memorable event! (Bonnie from the USA)

I enjoyed the use of simple exercises to understand challenging concepts & Joshua’s masterful coaching. (E. Ling from the UK)

Summer camp is like an extended workshop where you can have fun & explore training in an intensive, ongoing environment. Usually held in a beautiful, rustic location – with great food!!! – & a great mix of people looking to train & enjoy their time. It’s like a vacation with the benefit of a depth of training that really feels fulfilling while it’s happening & after it’s over. Joshua’s skill in leading the workshop is unparalleled & always includes lots of personal instruction. Don’t miss an opportunity like this if you can! (Phil Braun from the USA)

All the trainings were exceptional. The instructors were great. Joshua is an extremely precise, meticulous, mindful, and wise teacher; his way of explaining each exercise, each rule makes time spent at the camp very unique. (Malgorzata M. from Poland)

Honestly? I enjoyed everything. Amazing experience! (Michael L. from the USA)

I enjoyed working on the sense of the balance of the point of contact from different perspectives (natural movement, 2 vectors, drag the point etc.). It helped me to get a better sense of what Zhong Xin Dao I Liq Chuan is about. (Vincent V. from France)

What I enjoyed the most about the summer camp was the clear explanations of Zhong Xin Dao I Liq Chuan principles, the interesting exercises, the looseness training, the Zhong Xin Dao I Liq Chuan applications, and the patience and understanding of the instructors.  (Ula G. from Poland)

The rope training was very nice. The translation to the movements we did I found important. The social time (sauna, dance, kayaking). The people, their attitude. Joshua’s teaching skills. The possibility to have some private time when needed. (Yeliz Oktay from The Netherlands)

What I appreciate the most about the summer camp trainings was that we were divided into small groups, our instructors were extremely mindful and they gave us lots of useful advice. We had personal contact with the instructors through the whole training and we learned a lot. The atmosphere was wonderful, easy-going and open-hearted. (Inga D. from Poland)

Great vibe, personalized training, high-level of skills of our instructor! (Konrad P. from Poland)

Summer camp – what I enjoyed the most was the variety of training methods. There was something for everyone! (Michalina D. from Poland)

During the summer camp, I had lots of opportunities to train for the 3rd level of Zhong Xin Dao I Liq Chuan and to prepare myself for the exam. Apart from the training, we had lots of fun activities such as kayaking, a barbecue, a Russian sauna, and dancing.  (Ezekiel M. from the USA)

The thing I appreciate the most about training with Joshua is the way he explains Zhong Xin Dao I Liq Chuan principles and his amazing energy that is inspiring to others.  (Grzegorz R. from Poland)

What I enjoyed the most about training with Joshua were the friendly atmosphere and his deep knowledge. (Tomek N. from Poland)

Joshua explains Zhong Xin Dao I Liq Chuan principles in a very unique way! (Piotr N. from Poland)

Zhong Xin Dao I Liq Chuan: Introduction to the “21 Form”

Pre-requisites: No previous experience is required to attend. This workshop is open to all participants! All concepts and principles will be reviewed.

This training will help you to recognize and flow with these changes, while being conscious of your own structure, relaxation, and energy.

The training of the 21 Form will allow you to see how to align your body and to move in a smooth and continuous fashion. Known as the “Fullness Form”, the 21 Form provides you the opportunity to recognize the Six Directions and the Three Dimensions. Through the training you will begin to transition fluidly from one movement to the next, to move and flow with roundness in the Three Dimensions.

In this workshop we will look at the form and applications for selected movements, highlighting the principles of non-resistance and self-unification in action. Through your work with partners, you will begin to recognize yourself, both your mind and your body, more clearly. This will be part of an ongoing series, designed to review applications for the entire sequence.

Pre-requisites: Pre-requisites: Aucun prérequis ni expériences ne sont exigés pour participer. Ce stage est ouvert à tous! Vous avez manqué un stage? Pas de problème! Chaque stage dans la série peut-être fait dans n’importe quel ordre!

La formation de la fondation Zhong Xin Dao I Liq Chuan comprend deux formes courtes, le “21 Forme” et la “Forme Papillon”. Les formes ont été conçues comme des véhicules à travers lesquels vous pouvez voir, reconnaître et réaliser les principes de la Nature en action. Les formes impliquent des changements continus, vous demandant d’élargir votre conscience.

Dans cet atelier, nous examinerons la forme et les applications de certains mouvements, en soulignant les principes de non-résistance et de l’unification de soi en action. Grâce à votre travail avec des partenaires, vous commencerez à vous reconnaître plus clairement, tant dans votre esprit que dans votre corps.

Zhong Xin Dao I Liq Chuan: Introduction to the “21 Form”

Pre-requisites: No previous experience is required to attend. This workshop is open to all participants! All concepts and principles will be reviewed.

Zhong Xin Dao I Liq Chuan foundation training includes two short forms, the “21 Form” and the “Butterfly Form”. The forms were designed as vehicles through which you may see, recognize and realize the principles of Nature in action. The forms are more challenging than the 15 Basic Exercises, involving continuous changes, asking you to expand your awareness even further. This training will help you to recognize and flow with these changes, while being conscious of your own structure, relaxation, and energy.

The training of the 21 Form will allow you to see how to align your body and to move in a smooth and continuous fashion. Known as the “Fullness Form”, the 21 Form provides you the opportunity to recognize the Six Directions and the Three Dimensions. Through the training you will begin to transition fluidly from one movement to the next, to move and flow with roundness in the Three Dimensions.

In this workshop we will look at the form and applications for selected movements, highlighting the principles of non-resistance and self-unification in action. Through your work with partners, you will begin to recognize yourself, both your mind and your body, more clearly. This will be part of an ongoing series, designed to review applications for the entire sequence.

Introduction to Zhong Xin Dao with Grandmaster Sam Chin

Pre-requisites: No previous experience is required to attend. This workshop is open to all participants! All concepts and principles will be reviewed.

Please note: Instruction will be in English with translation into French when necessary.

Grandmaster Sam F.S. Chin, the founder of Zhong Xin Dao I Liq Chuan, returns to Paris!

Grandmaster Chin’s approach is a style neutral” path of development that uses mindfulness to cultivate awareness of both mind and body, that will enable you to let go of reflexive habits through conscious action. Practitioners of all styles of martial and movement arts (and beginners too!) will benefit from this exploration of these universal principles.

The practice of Zhong Xin Dao (Center Heart Path) I Liq Chuan (Mental Physical Martial Art) cultivates consciousness based on Tai Chi and Chan (Zen) principles of non-assertion, non-resistance, harmony of yin and yang, oneness and the present moment.

In the universe all things are created by conditions and function through the energy of yin and yang. The whole universe has yin and yang energy. When yin and yang energy is balanced, they are harmonized. Students are taught the art through philosophy and a series of exercises in order to learn to recognize the balance of yin and yang energy, and discipline the inner energy flow (Qi – Chi – Ki). Developing this art benefits the whole nervous and intrinsic systems and brings total control, harmony and awareness to the mind and body.

By understanding the harmony (yin and yang) of the body, recognizing the limits of the structure, the movement in each of the three dimensional planes of cycles, the student transforms this internal energy into internal power, accumulating Chi which propels the appropriate natural body movements. I Liq Chuan makes you aware of your strength, its limits, and the best use of your strength for self-defense.

As a system of Kung Fu, Zhong Xin Dao I Liq Chuan emphasizes the development of internal power through mental attitude and awareness. The training develops sticking and merging abilities, circular spiral energy, Chin Na, Fa Jing, Chi Kung, and most importantly, integration of the mind’s complete awareness in the present moment – be it in daily life or any situation.

In this workshop you will explore:

• Philosophy, Concepts, and Principles
• Mindfulness, Concentration, Attention
• The Nature of Awareness
• The Five Qualities of Movement Unification
• The Six Directions and the Three Dimensions
• The Macrocosmic Energy Flow
• Solo Exercises
• Partner Exercises

During these two days of concentrated practice, you will deepen your understanding of yourself, as well as your relationship with the world around you.

Join us in welcoming Grandmaster Sam F.S. Chin to Paris!
