First Ying Qi Gong masterclass in Malta GRAND Master Daniele Zanni, supported by his disciple Leon- ardo Barilaro, led for the first time a Ying Qi Gong masterclass in Malta. He was invited for this unique event by Deep Med Yoga and Freediving Center, directed by Lyndsay Bilodeau and Fabrice Bonello du Puis. The masterclass focused main- ly on the 'Vital Energy Train- ing', a form of breath and energy work that improves the mental strength, body performances and overall health. Master Daniele shared his knowledge about this intensive training that in its ad- vanced levels allows, for exam- ple, Shaolin monks to do incred- ible things, like breaking bricks with their bare hands or metal sticks with the head. The event ended with an open water ses- sion, where the free divers tested the first effects of the previous seven hours of training.
