A Love Affair with Martial Arts at AVANI Quy Nhon
If a pre-wedding martial arts retreat sounds like an unlikely recipe for a happy ever after, leave it to AVANI Quy Nhon Resort & Spa to conjure up a romantic experience proving that couples who practice tai chi together stay together. Quy Nhon and its environs are the birthplace of Viet Vo Dao—a practice focused on achieving moral refinement and promoting a sense of love through physical movement and exercise. Drawing on these ancient traditions, AVANI’s pre-wedding martial arts retreat, conducted by a certified instructor, combines physical training with mindfulness practices. Daily tai chi, Viet Vo Dao, yoga classes and soothing spa treatments work their magic helping to release tension and steady the nerves for the big day. Monogrammed martial arts belts for him and her add a personal touch and make for a quirky souvenir to take back home. Nestled against a hillside in an awe-inspiring feat of architecture, AVANI Quy Nhon is hugged between the powder white sands and crystal clear waters of blissfully quiet Bai Xep Bay and vast mountains.
