Upcoming Live Classes
Perceptual Awareness, Protection & Energetics I
Every person perceives, yet few are taught what that perception is or how to work with it. This training gives you the discernment, protection, and steadiness to trust what you sense and to remain clear while you do.
- Recognize how perception moves through the body, the emotions, the field, the spirit, and the soul, and how it works in you.
- Trust what you sense without slipping into fear, fantasy, or assumption.
- Build a clearer energetic container so you can perceive without becoming overwhelmed or drained.
Two-hour midday break
Perceptual Awareness, Protection & Energetics II
Where Part I built your perception, protection, and field regulation, Part II opens the clinical work. Here you step from sensing energy into working with it, beginning Yìquán training and taking your foundation to the table in hands-on treatment.
- Begin Yìquán training, developing the vibrational resonance a healer uses to break up qì and blood stagnation.
- Take up clinical table work, reading a field and moving through complete treatment with another person before you.
- Learn to purge, tonify, and regulate by hand, with intention, discipline, and spiritual grounding.
Two-hour midday break

Foundations of Chinese Energetic Medicine
Qìgōng is the disciplined work of cultivating qì: gathering it, refining it, regulating it, and protecting it. Through breath, posture, movement, meditation, healing sounds, and Daoist organ exercises, you build the personal practice and sensitivity that deeper practitioner training depends on.
- Learn the guiding principles of Chinese Energetic Medicine and the foundational anatomy of qì, the organs, channels, and the three dāntián.
- Practice the Three Regulations of posture, breath, and intent as the root of Medical Qìgōng self-cultivation.
- Build a daily practice of purging, tonifying, and protective meditation that carries your training forward.
