Hello everybody!...I'm Italian and I've been living in London for the last 7 years. I'm glad to have found this community of like minded people who share the same passion for Taoism.
After many years of thinking of it I'm now planning a trip to China (short staying though...about 2 weeks). I obviously would like this to be a unique and inspiring experience.
I enjoy martial arts (I've been practicing shaolin gong fu for many years) and for what I researched it seems to me quite easy to approach one of the taoist martial arts academys at the wudang mountain...but what I'm really looking for this trip is to go some place and meet some teachers that could teach me or at least give me some insights on the philosophical and metaphysical aspects of taoism (e.g. alchemy)...
If any of you, who is aware of such places or teachers approachable by a Westerner English speaker, would like to share some information would be great and I would be infinitely grateful.
Thank you!
Peace!
