Casa Shen

To learn Qigong and Internal Martial Arts and be part of something which will become a place for people to grow and find peace. I have experience from the business world, martial arts and spiritual practices and hope I am able to guide people of all ages. My location is peaceful and full of positive energy.

I am an entrepreneur, martial arts teacher, father and guide. In recent years I have been guided by Dr Joe Dispenza, Shaolin Monk Shi Heng Yi and Yang Shou Gong Master, Master Yapp from Malaysia. I would like to build a place to help people awaken and enjoy a life devoid of fear and filled with possibilities.

I will think about my stay at Casa shen for a very long time. I had such a beautiful time with Steve and his partner Darline. We cooked together everyday, ate together everyday, shared lots of laughs and Steve is truly a teacher and has so much wisdom to share, the work wasn’t overly hard but a nice challenge and I learnt lots of new skills. He practiced Qigong every morning and I were always welcome to join. I would definitely recommend Casa shen to anyone wanting to open their mind, connect with nature, and feel loved and welcomed. Thank you Steve and Darline <3

I love the place, in the centre of the forest in the mountains, the simple life I could live there, connected with nature from within, is priceless. I loved every task I had a chance to do for Casa Shen. I discovered and healed myself through my personal time, and from each task I did truly engaged in it. Steve was super chill about the timeline schedule, with or without the hours done, and even about the time when I was not feeling up to work. Steve is working at his own pace and the weather conditions to improve his home for the present and the future, preserving nature. :)

Steve is a truly nice person with a big heart. I had the chance to talk with him about a large variety of topics as if we had been friends for ages. He understood the situation when I had to return home before the scheduled date without objecting. The place is surrounded by nature and it’s perfect if you want to distance yourself from society and chaos. I had a rather cozy private room but the house was a bit messy and soiled because it was under construction. I found this experience challenging (in a positive way) and it taught me a lot.

Martina was great company and was keen to learn more about Meditation and Qigong. Unfortunately the kitchen was being constructed so cooking facilities were not ideal. The kitchen has now been completed. Thank you Martina for your company and hard work. Martina helped with many tasks including working on stone walls and painting. She's a good cook also and made some very nice meals.

Perfect for you if you're looking for
