Buddhist Ceremonies
Located at Buddhist Temple, students are able to take part in various Buddhist ceremonies, which are precious opportunities to experience Buddhist and Chinese culture.
Meditation in Meditation Hall
There is a grand Meditation Hall in our temple where you are able to do meditation and cultivate yourself. The Meditation Hall is the most sacred place in a Buddhist Temple. Full of the special atmosphere, you will have an amazing experience doing meditation here.
Culture Courses (optional courses)
We offer optional courses such as Chinese Medical Acupuncture and Massage, Chinese Tea Ceremony, Chinese Mandarin class, and Buddhism Theory. They are for students to understand Chinese culture, and also enrich their life at the academy.
Chinese Calligraphy classes are offered at our academy. In this class, you will find the beauty of artistic Chinese language. It is also a way of self-cultivation, to achieve inner peace and tranquility.
Becoming a disciple (Baishi)
At our academy, outstanding students have the chance to become disciple of their master formally. We will have a ceremony for it, which is called Baishi in Chinese. From the ceremony, students will experience the real Chinese kungfu tradition and will get a disciple certificate.
Weekends and free time
Weekends are free time for students to rest and relax. Students may choose to visit the places nearby or have a short trip to some places of interest.
