Niikura Ki Breathing This is a unique and completely original method of energy cultivation developed by Ki Master Sensei Katsumi Niikura. The method is highly effective in its ability to improve health, develop sensitivity or energy awareness and gives the practitioner the ability to manipulate internal and external Ki very quickly. If you are interested in healing others, this is one of the best methods to learn. It combines physical movements similar to some systems of yoga and martial arts with breath and intent. The breathing method is completely unique to his method and uses the teeth to enhance the Ki. Please note that Ki is the Japanese word for Chi. The Ki Breathing Method is an incredibly powerful practice that instantly brings large amounts of Ki into your body. This type of high-powered breathing technique is important because it has enough power to break through deep emotional, physical, and energetic blockages.
BloodWashing (Xue Sui Jing Qigong) This method creates a continuous circuit or flow pattern of Chi throughout the body that follows the path of its natural flow pattern according to Traditional Chinese Medicine. It helps to enhance chi flow, improves overall circulation and strengthens the body’s network of nerves through physical and energetic stimulation. This practice is very invigorating and has many levels as you advance in your skill.
Dynamic Moving Forms (Primordial Qigong & Stirring The Waters Qigong) Both of these Qigong forms use very simple yet powerful sets of movement to tap into the energy of the four cardinal directions (East, West, South, North) and combines them with the universal energy for cultivating internal Chi. They are the most powerful Qigong forms I've found. Both are wonderful Qigong methods for those who are developing their Chi, but feel as though they need something more. Both methods are easy to learn and take only 15-minutes to perform. As you advance and become comfortable performing the form, you are taught to use colors and emotions to dramatically enhance the practice.
Shaolin Nei Jing Yi Chan Standing Qigong (Zhang Zhuang) Standing Qigong is about four thousand years old, and is used for everything from building internal strength for martial arts to self-healing, lowering blood pressure, increasing respiration and alertness, reducing stress and pain, and improving health and energy overall. The result is a high level of internal motion within the body that drives your Chi to move through its energy channels as the blood surges through your veins and arteries. Eventually you expand beyond your normal limits of endurance to a highly energized state of alert tranquility. This particular standing Qigong has a long history of effectiveness. It is believed that the sage Bodhidharma taught this practice also known as One Finger Zen to the Shaolin monks several thousand years ago. Unique among thousands of other Qigong forms, One Finger Zen promotes healing and inner strength through stillness while also manipulating the fingers and/or toes. The form is considered exceptional in that it can bring the seriously ill back to health and has even saved many near death. It can be practiced standing, sitting or even lying down, but the effectiveness of the method weakens based on these choices. Sitting is considered to be 10 times stronger than lying down and standing is considered to be 10 times stronger than sitting.
Dynamic Stands (Eternal Spring Qigong) This Qigong is a synergistic blend of Bodhidharma’s Bone Marrow Cleanse Qigong and Master Chunyi Lin’s Spring Forest Qigong. Both methods are known to promote self-healing and develop chi through gentle easy to learn arm movements while holding a fixed leg posture or stand. The method is easy to learn and becomes quite pleasurable as your awareness of chi develops. It combines the health and endurance benefits of Standing Qigong (Zhang Zhuang) with that of moving Qigong systems. It is 50% stationary and 50% dynamic.
Eight Elemental Stake Qigong This Qigong uses standing Qigong, color visualizations, healing chants and is a basic relaxation and self-healing method utilizing simple postures, Eight Directions and special sounds to transform negative emotional energy into positive vitality. This practice typically results in improved digestion, reduced internal stress, reduced insomnia and headaches, and greater vitality as the flow of Chi increases throughout the different internal organs in the body.
Martial Qigong Sets (YiJin Ching & Himm Kong) Both methods are designed to dramatically strengthen the tendon and ligament system in the body while accumulating Chi. The Himm Kong or “Power Exercises” practice also involves color visualizations and breath sounds to further refine and project the accumulated Chi.
Tai Chi Ruler Qigong This practice is a very rare system of Taoist Yoga, or Chi Kung utilizing a specially designed wooden dowel or "ruler" that was derived from the shape of the ancient Chinese sword handle. The Tai Chi Ruler is an exercise done in continuous repetition with deep, slow breathing with the ruler held between the palms on the Lao Gong point. Each exercise coordinates breath, mental and visual concentration with a basic tai chi physical pattern that shifts the body’s weight between both legs. The method is based entirely on natural principles, Tai Chi Ruler imparts both holistic fitness and integral strength training and is a complete system of Taoist style Yoga - just as Hatha, Kundalini, Raja are complete yoga systems - that integrates mind and body to purify the human spirit. Tai Chi Ruler practice imparts holistic fitness, integral strength, and substantial Chi accumulation and circulation into a single practice and is an excellent foundation for Tai Chi Chuan, Bahuazhang, Xing Yi Chuan, or any martial art, meditation or health & fitness practice." The Tai Chi Ruler aligns, stimulates and empowers the 7 major energy reservoirs, Chakras or “dan tiens”, and energy pathways or meridians of the body.
Seated Meditations (Dan Tiens, Kan & Li or Kundalini, Orbit Practice, Void, Healing, etc.) The majority of these meditation type Qigongs are for spiritual development known as enlightenment or awakening. Some are for self-healing or the distant healing of others. However, the majority of these seated Qigong methods that I have been exposed to are primarily to either prepare you for the awakening the dormant spiritual energy at the base of the spine known as Kundalini energy or to actually begin the process of activating it.
Lying down Meditation This is a method of cooling the Yang Chi energy, by accumulating Yin Chi. It is also used for third eye development, out of body experience, remote viewing and is considered to be a water meditation. Due to the fact that it is performed lying on your back, it can activate the dream centers of your brain causing you to have a lucid dream experience that can be quite strange at times. Personally, I have never had a negative experience with this Qigong, but if someone was emotionally unstable or had some type of mental disorder, I would advise against it.
Energy Healing Methods & Techniques Here you learn to use a variety of Qigong healing systems for the purpose of helping others. If you are in a hurry, I can attune you to Reiki Master and provide you with the healing hand positions or more specific instructions if you need to begin helping someone immediately. I prefer to have you learn Qigong to truly strengthen your healing energy and abilities. Reiki masters and other energy healers will be very pleased to learn that they can dramatically increase their healing energy through Qigong training methods. As I said before everyone can become a healer simply because this is a natural human ability. A reasonable analogy is that everyone can lift weights. However, you don’t become physically stronger simply because you can lift weights, you actually have to lift them regularly to accomplish gains in strength. Qigong provides the training methods that make your energy stronger, which can then be used for a variety of purposes. After many years of training, I can tell you that these methods simply work and if you practice consistently, you will get the results.

Biography: |
Originally more than 5 years ago now, I was highly skeptical of this kind of thing. To be honest, I thought it was “wacky” but due to my prior martial arts background I simply had to know for myself what if anything this Chi stuff was truly about. So I made a dedicated decision to do Qigong everyday for a full year to prove or disprove the existence of the so-called “Chi” or “life force energy” to myself. I practiced consistently each and every day and corresponded regularly with my first instructor, Sifu Robin Jones to review my training. Even though I was feeling healthier and more alive, I didn’t have any physical experience that proved Chi was something real. I continued and pressed on even though my mind kept nagging me saying: “This is stupid, you are wasting your time.” However after 7-months of persistent practice, something magical happened. I could feel the energy both inside and outside my body. My hands felt like powerful magnets repelling each other and I had the internal sensation of electrical currents flowing throughout my entire body. Little did I know how much Qigong was going to change my life for the better. I have lost 55 lbs, dramatically improved my physical, emotional and mental health, as well as gaining healing ability by helping my friends and family members recover from or heal from their own medical issues. This has been by far the greatest discovery of my life! My only wish now is to share this with anyone who is willing to listen.
I became a Chi fanatic and as a result, I have over 7,000+ hours of internal energetic training experience from a variety of systems (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Tibetan, Indian) and I can emit my bio-energy so that others can actually feel and experience the reality of this natural phenomenon themselves. This energy is not something that you imagine, it is something that you can actually feel and share with others. Anyone can do this! This is a natural ability inherent in the human system. Just like lifting weights makes one physically stronger, Qigong exercises, breathing methods and meditations makes one’s bio-energy stronger as well. The hardest part is finding someone that can actually show you the real thing so that you can make a personal connection to the energy both internally and externally. Many Qigong teachers (as well as books & videos) show the movements or exercises, but most either don’t or cannot give the student their own energy experience, which eventually leads to the ability for them to do this on their own. I have found that even in the presence of someone highly skilled at Qigong, approximately one-third of students don’t feel much initially until they consistently practice for at least a month. The simple fact is that you are learning to tune into energy frequencies that you have simply not been aware of for most of your life.
I have been both lucky and fortunate in this regard and have received a high degree of openly shared knowledge from legitimate Qigong Masters
