The Lifelong Training Program creates communities of practitioners dedicated to the study of Classical Chinese Wisdom Traditions. We explore how to apply these teachings to our daily practice and develop an understanding of the relationships between the classics, self-cultivation practices, the way we live our daily lives, and the creation of harmonious communities.

Lifelong Training Program
With annual opportunities to meet with a growing Taiji and Qigong family, this program is an invitation to promote balance, peace and harmony in your life. The purpose of this program is to create communities of practitioners dedicated to the study of Classical Chinese Wisdom Traditions who support each other on this path to deeper Knowing and Enlightenment.
Traditional teachings in Chinese Shamanic Qigong and Taiji will be offered over the long term. Traditional style teaching in China encompasses two key components. First, a student commits to learn from a master for his or her whole life. Second, the master commits to transmit knowledge from the lineage directly to the student.
The depth of knowledge gained through the trainings is directly connected to the participant's daily practice. As students become grounded in their own self cultivation, opportunities arise for their understanding to grow into embodiment of these ancient teachings.
