Are you looking for comprehensive, formal Qigong training? Enter the heart of Qigong practice by learning the Nine Marvelous Qigong Methods (九妙法门) of the Heavenly Essence Qigong lineage. Known for openness and direct clarity, this series presents Qigong theory and its simple, effective practice methods.
The theory includes the Six Golden Keys that lead you into the mysterious gate of Qigong. The nine practices include the following exercises:
- 3 Main Dynamic Qigong
- Walking, Running and Sleeping Qigong
- Lifting Kidney Qigong
- Using Sound to Open the Arm Meridian Method
- The Nourishing Qi Meditation Method
These methods can be easily integrated into your daily life and practiced while sitting, walking, standing, or lying down, based on your lifestyle and preferences. Each session will include a lecture, meditation, and Qigong exercise practice.
An introductory three-week class, Qigong for Beginners, is offered in January. You may take this class as an independent study. No previous experience is required.
