“One of the best things that ever happened to me”
In our hectic world, peace and balance seem ever harder to grasp. If you too find yourself searching for them, you’re not alone.
Taoism has been helping people find and nurture these vital aspects of fulfilled living for thousands of years.

“You’ve found the right place!”
"I got into Daoism around a year ago. I was channel hopping at home, and a Chinese historical drama came on. I saw how they featured Daoism and the Chinese way of life, and realised it was basically the way I had been living my life for the last 50-odd years.
I looked for more information on Daoism and that’s how I found WTWA: by accident (though we all know that accidents are not really accidents!)
If you’re looking for the true Daoist culture but can't get to Wudangshan, then you’ve found the right place. You can still live Daoism by accessing the platform and its content.
Everything on the platform is really interesting, from the lessons themselves to all the extras like the livestream and communities. Master Gu’s teaching is at once fascinating, fun, and authentic. I’ve learned not just Chinese Culture and Daoism but Tai Chi and Qi Gong too.
Do give it a try because it's really, really worth it. You can study whenever and wherever you like. To me, it’s the best academy out there."

“The perfect combination of content of quality."
"I’d been interested in tai chi for some time, so when the pandemic hit, I was determined to take it up more seriously.
Having followed George's videos on YouTube for quite a while, I admired the quality of his filmmaking and absolutely loved Master Gu’s charisma. When I discovered that he and Master Gu were launching the online academy, I knew it’d be great and couldn’t wait to join.
Now I have this perfect combination of content and quality. I like the way the lessons are shot, the sound is perfect, and the system is very easy to access. Whether it's Qi Gong, Tai Chi, philosophy, or meditation, it’s all there 24/7.
But Master Gu is, of course, the main reason I joined. His delivery is incredible, and his command of English is beautiful. His knowledge and sincerity just permeate everything he says and does. I could listen and learn with him all day long!"
