A structured introduction to Health Qigong for people who want a practice they can return to throughout daily life.
Learn online.
Practise in your own time.
Progress without rushing.
No previous Health Qigong experience is needed.
The programme introduces four foundational Health Qigong routines.
Eight Brocades
A balanced sequence using opening, stretching, posture and coordinated movement.
Useful as a steady whole-body practice.
Five Animal Frolics
A more expressive practice inspired by five animals.
Develops coordination, mobility, balance and a greater variety of movement.
Six Healing Sounds
A quieter practice combining movement, breathing and six prescribed sounds.
Useful when you want to slow the pace and pay closer attention to breath and movement.
Muscle and Tendon Change Classic
A structured practice using alignment, controlled extension and whole-body connection.
The learning pathway includes:
Each routine is taught progressively.
You do not need to learn all four at once.
Your programme includes:
The completion certificate recognises completion of the learning programme.
It is not a Chih or Duan assessment.
There is no compulsory daily timetable.
A practical approach is:
Practise one short section for 5–15 minutes.
Work through a lesson slowly and repeat the difficult sections.
Follow a complete routine with its prescribed music.
Return to the lesson rather than forcing the movement.
Technical refinement can also be booked separately when personal correction would be useful.
The programme is there to support regular practice—not to give you another schedule to fail at.
There is no fixed completion deadline.
People learn movement differently.
As a practical guideline, allow at least:
16 active learning and practice hours per routine.

Many beginners will spend longer.

Repetition is part of the training.
