Our popular annual event has returned and this year we plan to make it an even bigger success - new exciting location, new possibilities, and more fun for everyone and families!
This year the retreat will be held from July 12th to 16th at Rock Point Provincial Park. There are 2 parts for the retreat and you can join us for one or both!
Shaolin Retreats are organized by Master Dao with the help of his fellow Shaolin Brothers, and are intended to provide a space and time for people to develop spiritual connection as well as build our Shaolin community.

Part 1 - Shaolin Meditation and Philosophy (3 Days)- July 12th to 14th - Wednesday to Friday: Explore the ancient wisdom of Shaolin Zen with Master Dao and learn to apply it for clarity and peace. Approximately 6 hours of meditation, qigong, and philosophy each day which includes discussion and 'quiet contemplation' exercises. No experience needed. Participants must be 13 years of age and older. Families can bring their children but must respect and ensure a quiet experience for everyone.

Part 2 - Shaolin Kung Fu Fitness and Fun (3 Days) - July 14th to 16th - Friday to Sunday: Treat yourself or your family to three days of camping fun with kung fu, tai chi, and qigong. Suitable for first time campers as well! Camp grounds have powered washrooms, and nearby showers. Suitable for adults and children of all ages. You may also bring your pet!
