We have invested much in education over the years. We understand what the UK western educational system requires regarding transparency of qualifications and the necessary criteria required for insurance purposes.
Our Qigong Instructor Courses come under the criteria set by the UK College of Qigong. We have the license to teach our Qigong systems from our lineage holders and retain post-graduate Western University teaching qualifications. We regulate all technical and theoretical aspects, assess, and provide graded Instructor licenses to those who pass our learning criteria.
Although we have deep respect for our Chinese ancestors, China has an entirely different educational system and grading system to Western education. Our courses and assessment criteria have therefore been written for the UK market. We know what the public require; we know what insurance companies expect. We have done the hard work for you. All you need to do is enjoy your learning and have the confidence that you will be taught everything you need to pass the learning criteria to set up successful classes in your designated community.
Officially, anyone can become certified.
But we are very particular about who we work with.
We’ve spent 40 years delivering Qigong courses and created the next generation of instructors.
During that time, we’ve even had to politely turn people away from our courses who don’t embrace the Qigong philosophy or ethics.
So before you do anything else, read below to see whether you’d make a good Qigong instructor:-
Who shouldn’t become a Qigong Instructor with us
Anyone who…
Wants to ‘get qualified’ and go on their way
Hates being outdoors
Isn’t open to being a student and thinks they already know everything
Expects it to fit into Reiki, Pilates and Yoga models
Expects to make millions from becoming a Qigong instructor
Who should become a Qigong Instructor
Anyone who…
Wants to help others stay fit and healthy through a gentle, low-impact exercise that doesn’t require access to expensive and noisy gyms
Has a burning desire to spend your days amongst calming nature
Has the desire to cultivate inner peace in yourself and others
Would love to immerse themselves in ancient Chinese culture
Recognises that attention to detail in the business of Qigong matters
Appreciates a perfectionistic Teacher with a direct, no-nonsense approach
Is open to a traditional, holistic approach to wellness
Is open and appreciative of receiving a successful business model
Align to all those points? Great.
Then you’d make a great fit here.
We have a wide range of available courses to suit people from all levels of experience.
For each course we teach, each student will have a Summative Assessment to complete. This usually consists of a short test, and an assignment. It is important to take the assessments seriously as this is your opportunity to demonstrate your knowledge and prove to us that you are safe to teach the public. All the questions need to be answered correctly. Please note that if a student fails the Summative, we will ask you to resit the entire course again. There will be a cost implication for this. Equally, if we have to go outside the allotted marking hours, students will be invoiced for extra costs.
Our core teachers are American. Their core teachers were Chinese. Although the content and theory are the same, our Qigong systems have had to be adapted to accommodate the USA and UK market. We have full consent from our teachers to adapt our teachings and marketing for the UK market.
We base our Qigong grading structure on that of the National Qigong Association a premier membership organisation for Qigong. Their values such as community, integrity and compassion align with the type of Qigong Instructor we wish to share our teachings with. Suffice to say we believe in the law of attraction!
