At FANGYUAN CENTRE, we offer all-inclusive Tai Chi and Qigong retreats in the heart of China, designed to provide personalized training and cultural immersion.

If you wish to stay for a period outside of our standard one-week program, we can accommodate a stay of 10 days, but you will be required to book a full 7-day training program and the remaining 3 days can be dedicated to training only.
