About the Facilitator
At the Eutopia Gathering, we are honored to welcome Themis Vlachos — a guide in Taoist arts, Qi Gong, Tai Chi, and Shamanic healing. With a journey of decades dedicated to body awareness, movement, and energy, Themis brings a unique synthesis of wisdom and practice. Through his teachings, you will experience the body as a living temple of presence, strength, and softness. You will explore the deep alignment of the body, the breath, and the spirit, through practices that connect the Earth and the Sky within you. Themis invites you into a sacred space where the ancient wisdom of the Tao meets the healing paths of nature and the soul. Come to meet a true traveler between worlds — and to awaken the natural flow within you. Themis Vlachos was born in Greece in 1966. He studied performing arts and directing. His involvement with physical theater gradually sparked his interest in martial arts. In 2000, he began practicing Saolin Chan Chuan up to the gray belt level, but Tai Chi Chuan soon captured his full attention. He has studied Yang Family Tai Chi Chuan, the Jian and Dao swords, the Tai Chi Pole and Tai Chi Ruler, Qi Gong (Circular, Slow, Fan Yin, Snake Body, Wudang), and Tao Yoga with Sifu A Giannoulis, and received his teaching license in 2012. In 2016, he moved to a permaculture retreat center in the mountains of Achaia, Greece, as a Tai Chi teacher, where he immersed himself in Tai Chi, Qi Gong, and Tao Yin, advancing his work and exploring their therapeutic aspects. In 2018 he begun his, never ending, studies and research on Qi Gong and the Chinese traditional medicine. In 2021 he entered the world of the shaman healers. He is a graduate of the shamanic Medicine Wheel offering therapies and workshops. He also holds a diploma on Tai massage with essential oils (Swedish) and he offers massages, acupressure and moxa. In 2020 he moved on the mountains of Evia island, in Greece, where he has been leaving ever since in a remote farm which he named Armonia Land. A place for nature lovers, Taoist arts and shamanic healing. Themis Vlachos has been teaching workshops in Greece and throughout Europe on physical theatre, body awareness, Tai Chi Chuan and Qi Gong since 1997.
Workshop Details
Qi Gong
Through the beautiful art of Qi Gong, we gather cosmic energy from the Universe and distribute it throughout our body and into the center of our power. We become an energetic channel connecting Heaven and Earth. We stand relaxed and strong within space, gaining awareness of our simultaneous existence as both feminine and masculine energy. We recognize that we are one with the Whole, flowing in harmony with the rhythm of the world.
