The HK Federation of Youth Groups (HKFYG) organized a group of 30 young people to come to our academy to experience and study Wudang Wushu and Daoist Regimen. Their motto was “To Wudang Mountain for challenge myself”. HKFYG was established in 1960. It is dedicated to setting up a youth membership network and providing quality services that solve young people's problems and promote healthy all-round development. From the 8th to the 24th, June, they have been studying Wudang Wushu and Daoist Regimen in our academy.
The 15th generation Wudang Kungfu Inheritor, Master Chen Shixing, warmly welcomed the group to the Academy. He divided them into two groups: one group studying Taichi 13 Form, the other team studying Tiger form. Master Chen arranged the interesting and enlightening training for them and even taught them personally. In the evening, he afforded his time to give them lectures on Daoist Regimen as well as answering any questions from the group.
In the harmonious atmosphere of the Academy and Wudang Mountain, the students from HKFYG felt the mystery, miracle and charm of Wudang Kungfu. During their day-off, Master Chen provided a professional tourism guide to take the group to visit the sacred Daoist Mountain—Wudang Mountain. From Crown Prince's Slope to Purple Cloud Palace, the South Cliff to The Golden top, they left with a feeling of love for China's landscape after hearing it’s history and witnessing it’s beauty. At the same time, they learned traditional Daoist history.
The students in HKFYG cherished their limited time in the academy. They listened to their Master and coaches very carefully and trained very hard. On the last day, Master Chen gave them an examination to check their progress. The examination results made Master Chen very happy. The group concluded that during their study: they did not only learn the traditional Daoist culture, but also studied the authentic Wudang Kungfu and visited the beautiful and sacred mountain. This combination of study and training helped them to return to the nature, open their minds, and improve their health. Most importantly however, they left with an improved understanding of the concept of their own growth. They hope to continue to grow and to pass on such valuable lessons into society.
On the 24th of June, the HKFYG finished their study at the Wudang Kungfu Academy. Their study ended in a very touching way. They said goodbye to Master Chen and the coaches again and again. Before they got on the bus, some students cried as a result of their overwhelming emotions. Many students promised to return to the academy in near future to continue their study of Wudang Kungfu and Daoist Regimen.
We gave the group our best wishes and hope that they can take the Wudang Kungfu spirit and Daosit philosophy back home to their future life. We hope they have a bright future.
