Alliance for Martial and Healing Arts

The doors of knowledge, understanding and skill are open to those who work on themselves, with energetic enthusiasm, refining their own Being. Access to the Temple of Being is denied to those who maintain a rigid and restricting attitude and are solely oriented to materialistic and selfish goals. Being means, ultimately, BEING FREE.

Genuine internal evolution is not guaranteed merely through the practice of martial arts and health disciplines. Many abilities can be attained on an “external” plane, but without achieving a corresponding “internal” transformation. Such practice should always aim to overcome personal selfish drives and to achieve freedom on a psychological plane. Were this essential orientation not present, the work done on ourselves would produce poor results.

STONE TEMPLE TAO - Traditional Oriental Arts was one of the first school in Italy that offered a full program in Traditional Chen Style Taijiquan and Qigong. The school, nowadays, has established itself as one of the most important Italian academies.

Among the many awards conquered by the School, here we mention the prestigious Cup "Best Italian School of Traditional Taijiquan" at the 5th National Championship "Chan Wu" Open (2012).

Stone Temple Tao’s students have won several Gold Medals in various European and World Competitions (specialties: Tui Shou and Chen Style Taijiquan Barehands and Weapons Forms) organized by different federations: WTKA; TCFE; UIKT.

The school offers also: Tuina, Sanda, Combat Sports, Oriental Naturopathy, Bioenergetic Techniques, Paths of Awakening of Consciousness.

Master Giuseppe Paterniti Lupo is founder of STONE TEMPLE TAO and Techincal Director of AMHA (Alliance for Martial and Healing Arts). Gold Medalist at the World Wushu Championship of Orlando (Florida - USA) in 2004, he renews his First Place, in 2014, at the World Traditional Kung Fu Championship of Rome.

Qi Hai, in traditional Chinese medicine, is a point where it's possibile to focus the man's vital energy and, translated from Chinese,it means "sea of energy". The association wants to represent this "sea", that is the result of all our experience in the psychological well-being field. Through various forms of Qi Gong, the practice becomes a complete work tool, which gives to the student unity and strength of body and mind, in total peace and harmony. We're continuing unabated our training, that is a key condition for good results and to continue to grow. At the same time we believe that this can be also applied to our students, which we recommend to practice constantly. Who became part of our group will find acceptance and pleasure in sharing, which are a stimulus and support in learning, in a continuous energy exchange.

The Dojo Drakaina deals with the practice, study and dissemination of different styles of Qi Gong and Chen style Taiji Quan, as traditional martial art but also as a way of personal growth which aims to elevate the individual at the center of attention, in order to live in harmony with the environment and to find your own place as connection between heaven and Earth. This path will teach you how to manage the body at physical and mental point of view, studiyng Taiji Quan in its real essence and completeness.

Since she started to practice Taiji Quan, Master Kety Laudani has dedicated himself to this art with a passionate and intensive study, conducting, in addiction, an important competitive activity. Today, she studies and continues to improve himself with some of the greatest masters of Taiji Quan. Far from the closure point of view imposed by many teachers, who use Taiji only as a eulogy and expression of their ego, the main objectif of M° Laudani is to disseminate that the Taiji Quan, and the Taoist philosophy behindit, are mainly a lifestyle: the study of Taiji is also useful for those who do not seek the purely martial aspect and, more importantly, to convey a concept. Taiji is not only practice, Taiji has to be lived!

Dojo Drakaina has Taiji and Qi Gong courses in: Catania, Aci Bonaccorsi and Gravina di Catania.

During his three year stay in Malta, our first Chen family Taijiquan teacher Yu Fei shared with us the fundamental aspects of this Martial Art. Following his departure in 2007 the "Malta Chen Taijiquan Association" was established to promote the study of this art Malta. The more advanced pupils within the association continued their studies with the ITKA (International Taijiqaun Kingfu Association) headed by Gianfranco Pace. This collaboration lasted for around six years, following which a decision was taken to become more autonomous as an Association, while at the same time explore new horizons related to this art. This is happening today, for instance, through the collaboration with the Alliance for the Martial and Healing Arts (AMHA) headed by Master Giuseppe Paterniti. The Malta Chen Taijiquan Association provides a method of study to allow its pupils understand how Taijiquan can be effective to stay healthy and also for self defense. The study program includes Qigong, traditional forms of the style, Tui Shou (Push Hands), sparring, self defense techniques plus the study of a number of taditional Chinese weapons. Recently the school started another ambitious project by offering Xingyiquan classes as part of its program.
