External martial arts camp

Join the Academy of Harmony’s fourth annual Kung Fu Training Camp in 2025! This camp welcomes kung fu practitioners of all levels and styles.

This year’s focus is the rare and historically significant Liu He Men kung fu style, which used to be called Shaolin treasure in the past. Liu He Men emphasizes the “Six Harmonies,” a holistic approach coordinating body and mind. Because it’s rarely practiced, this is a unique opportunity to learn a foundational style that influences all other kung fu forms. Studying Liu He Men will enhance your overall movement, balance soft and hard techniques, and cultivate internal energy.

Camp participants will learn Liu He Quan (a key form within Liu He Men) known for its powerful, flowing movements. Weapon training will include the spear (for practical combat) and the Miao Dao (a long, two-handed sword).

Instruction will be provided by two experts: Master Tian Xiufeng, a Miao Dao specialist visiting directly from China, and Sifu Henny Eleonora, founder of the Academy of Harmony. Sifu Henny has dedicated years to Liu He Men and is passionate about preserving and sharing this art.

Join the camp to delve into traditional kung fu, improve your skills, connect with fellow martial artists, and experience the beautiful Italian scenery!
