Harness the power of this ancient practice to change your life
About Qigong
Qi Gong has been practiced by hundreds of millions of people over the last 3,000 years--and used by 10 million Americans today-- to purge traumas from the body, absorb life force energy (chi) from the environment, and amplify chi for wellbeing, spiritual and martial arts purposes.
We offer a unique synergy of Classes (up to 4x/week) and optional energy Treatments to optimize your wellbeing. You will learn not just from one, but from several world class instructors -- each with Medical Qi Gong Doctorates, Priest and/or Buddhist Lama ordinations, and decades of experience in different specialties. They will teach exercises tailored to your specific health and wellbeing goals, coordinated with the treatments from our medical Qi Gong doctors. ​
A Beginners' Course is available Sundays 4:30-5:30 pm Pacific online; practice sessions are also offered online Tuesdays at 9 am and Thursdays at 5 pm, and a more advanced class Saturdays at 8:30 am (all Pacific Time). All live classes are also recorded.​

Qi Gong's Benefits
​​
Qi Gong has been recognized by the U.S. National Institutes of Health, U.S. Veterans Administration, and major U.S. medical provider networks for its benefits. Using breath, intention and gentle movement, Qi Gong relieves stress, clears the mind, improves the immune system, circulation and digestion, and increases your energy level and connection to the environment.

Personalized Treatments
Qi Gong is closely related to Acupuncture and Tai Chi, and has been recognized by the U.S. National Institutes of Health and U.S. Veterans Administration for its health benefits.
According to Traditional Chinese Medicine principles, many emotional and physical ailments have their root causes in traumas and adverse life experiences which block the smooth flow of energy along the body's energy channels, or "meridians."
Individualized energy treatments from our Chinese Energetic Medicine therapists—as well as your own daily Qi Gong practice — can unblock those channels, balance energy in your body, and help resolve your ailments.
