Dragon’s Way Qigong® Instructor Training

You are the key element in Dragon’s Way Qigong® training. Through personal transformation, you will experience the power of Qigong practice and learn how to apply ancient techniques to everyday life.

As you advance in your training, your body will naturally adapt, embracing the true essence of balance. Daily Qigong practice will enable you to cultivate Qi, resolving inner stagnations along the way. Yet, there’s more to explore; you’ll delve into the profound connection between your body and nature, discovering the significance of Five Element Consciousness as a map to understand your inner world.

With your Qi flowing more freely, your body will begin to want different kinds of foods.  These cravings are what we call eating-for-healing. Our experienced Qigong instructors will skillfully guide you along to recognize the power of self- transformation.

The beauty of this experience lies in your ability to teach and inspire others from a place of genuine personal transformation – the very shifts that have shaped your life. If you are driven by the desire to assist others and have a passion for the wisdom of lineage, Qigong practice, and traditional Chinese medicine, we extend a invitation to join this exceptional program.

Everything is energy or Qi and Qi is present in all areas of your life. Wu Ming Qigong stimulates energy flow in the meridians and help to accumulate Qi, but that’s not enough! We turn to a style of Eating for Healing that allows the body to conserve energy and improve digestive health.

Next the study of Five Element Consciousness gives you the knowledge to understand the body’s physical and emotional imbalances, and acts as a guide to reflect health improvements.  Herbal supplements, while optional, gives the body necessary Qi support. This comprehensive program leaves nothing out.

Prior to receiving certification to teach Dragon’s Way Qigong, all instructors in training will have their energy development evaluated by Grand Master Nan Lu, in his role as Qigong master. Depending on your readiness, he will grant you permission to teach this energy system.

Your path to certification begins with virtual classes held once a week for three months. When complete, your personal transformation will guide you to determine if the next steps are right for you. We’ve crafted the experience so it’s rich for future instructors as well as those wanting an immersive experience into the Dragon’s Way Qigong system.
