The School
A school of questions, not answers
Complete Union is a contemporary Taoist school devoted to the research and practice of the relationships between body, perception, health, nature, community and consciousness.
The school is rooted in the Taoist tradition of Complete Reality — Quanzhen — and in the Longmen lineage, the Dragon Gate. But it does not present Taoism as a closed system of beliefs: we are not a religion, nor a conventional academy of martial arts, nor a superficial wellness offering.
We are a space where traditional practices enter into dialogue with modern physiology, psychology, medicine, body-based clinical work, movement research, regulation of the nervous system, collective experience and contemporary everyday life.
To practice is not to withdraw from life. It is to learn to inhabit it with greater sensitivity, presence and freedom.
Orientation
What sustains us
The question before the answer
Taoist philosophy asks questions and takes care that they are the right ones. "I don't know" is a friend: we call it the state of learning.
Experience as a source of knowledge
Everything is verified in practice: the body, the breath and perception are the laboratory.
Individual practice and collective practice
Human regulation is not only individual: it also happens in the bond, in the presence of others and in the experience of community.
Lineage and transmission
Where the name comes from
Complete Union is born from the fusion of two currents: the school of Complete Reality and the Dragon Gate, brought together in our time through the masters Li Fu Kuan and Cai Wen Yu in the person of Gabriel Nieto.
And that has been, ever since, the school's way of being: to take in knowledge, masters and disciplines that contribute to our vision of teaching — from classical Taoism to contemporary medicine and psychology. Because the union keeps completing itself.
"The fish forgets the water where it swims. Man forgets the Tao in which he lives."
