Tai Chi Qigong Shibashi Instructor Training Course

Tai Chi Qigong Shibashi is one of the most popular qigong around the world because it is effective and easy to learn. The demand for tai chi qigong instructors is increasing as baby boomers start to age and as more people become aware of the benefits of qigong.  We always receive emails from interested students asking us whether we know of any good tai chi or qigong instructors teaching in their cities.

In this course, students will learn:

• The theory of qi and how practicing qigong can improve one's health
• The details surrounding and reasoning behind each movement which will yield answers to questions such as “Why stances should be shoulder width apart?  What happens if you use a wider or narrower stance?”
• Individual form correction
• Abdominal breathing vs. reverse breathing
• About the feelings to be expected after practicing qigong and the meaning behind each feeling
• About the common mistakes students make when practicing Shibashi
• How to test if the student is both physically and mentally relax
• How to add extra requirements to maximize the health benefits obtained from practicing Shibashi
• How to incorporate some simple yet powerful stances (zhuang) into Shibashi
• How to increase your sensitivity to qi
• How to modify the form when teaching seniors and those with special needs
• How to create a qi field to magnify the benefits of group practice
• How to detect and defend themselves from sick qi

Even though the theme of this instructor training course is around Shibashi, the knowledge you will learn in this course can be applied to many different styles of qigong. Furthermore, this course covers all the 3 major types of qigong, namely moving qigong, standing qigong and sitting qigong. For moving qigong, we have Shibashi; for standing qigong, we have Wuji and Taji Stance and for the sitting qigong, we have the basic Internal Alchemy technique.

A certificate will be issued to those who successfully complete this course.  Their names and contact information could be listed on this website.  On average our site has 500 unique visitors per day, and we have a very high traffic ranking among all other websites related to tai chi and qigong.
