Better than Beijing

From the landscape to the community - you cannot get any better than Yangshou. Amazing excursions to the countryside, wonderful teachers and all at a fraction of the cost you'll find in Beijing. I was torn between well advertised programs in Beijing and Omeida in Yangshou - I was so happy I choose Omeida. I was able to learn and practice while also exploring (plus easy access to western food if you are feeling the need for a comfort coffee or crepe).

I was only able to stay two weeks but everyone helped me make great use of the time to learn so much. I felt I made progress and had a lot to practice back home and for a week in Beijing.
