THE EXPERIENCE
A place to practise.
Scott Bird's Rising Dragon School now announces its headquarters in Bohol, Philippines. The operator explicitly describes its China and Sweden locations as former locations, so the Yongping entry belongs in the historical research list.
What you can practise
- kung fu
- taiji
- qigong

Where you will stay
