200-Hour Online Qigong Teacher Training
→ Why choose this training?
A serious and practice-led training in authentic Qigong, taught live and one to one, and designed for those seeking genuine depth, precision and internal development, whether they intend to teach professionally or simply deepen their own practice.
This is not a generic online wellness certification or a passive "watch videos and get certified" course.
The training is built around sustained practice, direct guidance and careful refinement over time. Many of the methods taught are rarely presented online with this level of structure, clarity and personal correction.
Some participants will go on to teach. Others will simply develop a level of personal practice and internal understanding that is increasingly difficult to find in modern Qigong training. Both paths are equally welcome.
While information about meridians, the Five Elements and Traditional Chinese Medicine can easily be found online, genuine skill cannot.
What most Qigong trainings still fail to provide is consistent, precise practice under the guidance of someone who understands the forms from the inside.
This programme places strong emphasis on exactly that.
Students are guided not only in learning movements, but in developing:
- Alignment
- Energetic awareness
- Use of intention (Yi)
- Breath coordination
- Internal mechanics
- Sensitivity
- The gradual cultivation of real embodied skill
Theory is taught where it directly supports the practice and helps clarify what the body is doing. The aim is not to accumulate concepts, but to develop understanding through attentive and repeated practice.
Done consistently, the effects become tangible:
- In posture
- In perception
- In awareness
- In regulation of energy and attention
- In the quality of presence brought into daily life
What You Will Learn
- Several Five-Element Qigong sets, taught progressively and refined session by session
- At least one complete Eight Extraordinary Vessels practice, alongside additional exercises targeting these channels directly
- Shen Qigong methods and selected practices drawn from the more refined dimensions of internal cultivation
- The use of Yi (intention) to guide Qi, taught as a practical and trainable skill rather than a theoretical idea
- Meridian pathways and principal acupuncture points relevant to each form, integrated directly into the practices
- Traditional Chinese Medicine foundations taught in direct relationship to the exercises rather than as isolated theory
- Selected therapeutic applications of specific Qigong methods
- Teaching methodology, class structure and practicum for those intending to teach
- Mentored teaching practice with guidance and feedback throughout the programme
Training Format
The training is taught entirely online, live and one to one. There is no group and no video course to work through. Every session is with me, and the pace, emphasis and order of work are shaped around your body, your experience and your goals.
The 200 hours are made up of:
- Around 100 hours of live one-to-one teaching of the Qigong forms
- Around 20 hours of live one-to-one supervised teaching practice, in which you teach and receive detailed feedback
- Around 80 hours of guided self-study: Traditional Chinese Medicine theory, meridians and acupoints, therapeutic applications of Qigong, short written and video assignments, and preparation for your final teaching demonstration
I take on only a small number of trainees at a time, so that each receives the attention this level of work demands.
Pace and Duration
Sessions last 90 minutes. At the standard pace of three sessions a week, the training takes about six months. Two sessions a week works equally well and takes about nine months, and you can move between the two as your circumstances change.
If you can give the training your full attention for a shorter period, an intensive pace of three sessions of around 2.5 hours a week completes the live teaching in about 16 weeks.
Outside the sessions, allow at least three hours a week for practice and self-study at the standard pace, and more at the intensive pace.
The training must be completed within 12 months of your first session, which leaves room for holidays, busy periods and illness. It starts when you're ready rather than on a fixed intake date, and sessions are arranged around your schedule and time zone.
Certification and Support
You receive your 200-hour certificate once you have completed all live sessions and assignments and passed your recorded teaching demonstration.
Support continues between sessions throughout the training and for three months after you finish.
Additional Details
- 200 hours of training in total
- Around 120 hours of live one-to-one teaching
- Taught over Zoom, Microsoft Teams or Google Meet
- Sessions arranged around your schedule and time zone
- Full notes and diagrams for every form

Who This Training Is For
This programme is suitable for:
- Dedicated beginners
- Experienced practitioners
- Yoga teachers
- Acupuncturists and Chinese medicine practitioners
- Somatic and trauma-informed therapists
- Bodyworkers
- Movement educators
- Integrative and functional medicine practitioners
- Those wishing to develop or teach authentic Qigong with clarity and confidence
It is also suitable for practitioners with no professional background who simply want a level of depth they have not been able to find elsewhere.
No prior Qigong experience is required.
What matters far more is sincerity, patience, attention and willingness to practise consistently.
A Different Approach to Qigong Training
Many modern Qigong courses focus mainly on choreography, relaxation or vague concepts of "energy".
This training takes a different approach.
Strong emphasis is placed on the foundations that genuinely shape internal practice: alignment, breath, awareness, energetic structure, use of intention and gradual refinement through careful repetition and direct guidance.
The result is a training designed not simply to teach forms, but to help students develop genuine internal skill, sensitivity and confidence over time.
