Shambhala 生八朗 (Shēng Bā Lǎng) means ‘The Eight Luminous Lives’ and is the name of the location that hosts our Guon 宮 (Gōng), where all the activities of our School take place. It is located in the midst of uncontaminated nature, on the slopes of the Sambre valley, a stream with crystal clear waters that fills with life the land and the surrounding woods. The adjacent spaces are magical places, rich in energies, scents, and unique colours.
