THE JOURNEY

 STARTS WITH YOU


Give yourself a break 


Give yourself a break from daily life. Discover a new culture, infused with a positive mentality. Rest your mind in temples, the jungle and the waterfalls. Nurture your body with traditional medicine and massages. Take care of your spirit and dive into practice.

EXPERIENCE A DIFFERENT WAY


Join our first Retreat on Koh Phangan. An invitation to pause, reset, and return to the simple, powerful presence of being.



Reconnect with what has always been there

In a world full of noise, pressure, and constant doing, it’s easy to forget who we truly are.  Here, we step away from responsibilities, roles, and expectations — and turn inward.

We reconnect with what has always been there:

  • The wisdom of the heart.
  • The power of stillness.
  • The bliss that naturally arises when we live in harmony — with ourselves, each other, and nature
.

The joy that naturally arises when we live in harmony — with ourselves, each other, and nature
.

This retreat is guided by Master Zuan — headmaster of Shaolin Temple Europe - and his team JourneyIntoOneself.

It is a rare and precious opportunity to learn directly from a true master whose presence, clarity, and compassion leave a lasting imprint on everyone he meets. His team offers a safe container of care and support with every need you have. Their presence creates the strong hold of a practice community.

Whether you’re just beginning your journey or have walked this path for many years, this is a transformative experience that opens the heart and reconnects you to your deepest self.



Let This Be Your Moment.

 To step away from the noise.
 To listen inward.
 To move, breathe, and come alive.

 We invite you to join us — and remember the wisdom of the heart that is already within you. 
With the rare and precious guidance of Master Zuan.

Teachers



Shifu Zuan


Shifu Zuan


Shifu Zuan’s teachings and commitment are characterized by a deep connection with the traditional Chinese Arts, which he not only practices but also integrates into everyday life.

Shifu Zuan serves as a guide on a path to self-realization and self- discovery. He gives the tools and encourages his students to walk their path independently, to awaken their true power and discover their true nature.



JIO Team


Team JIO


Team JIO are a handful of students who have spent six years or longer in a dedicated practice with Shifu Zuan and have been accepted as his Inner Students. They have been part of an “Assistant Program” for two years and have completed their Instructors Training.

They are building up their own teaching and are invited to take care of private classes, online classes, Team Workshops and Team Retreats in the name of JIO. They take different roles in the organisation and are asked to fulfill tasks based on their skills.

They cultivate the virtues of this teaching and support the ones that join this journey with care and compassion. Guiding by example, from outside in, they are the heart of this teaching.
