Hun Yuan Qigong
I trained in Hun Yuan Tai Ji and Qigong under lineage holder Master Chris Ray Chappell, completing teacher training in 2007.
This system has been developed through his own insights and carries a strong influence from the Wudang and Emei traditions, in which he also holds lineage.
I continue to study, practise, and teach this style of Qigong as part of my ongoing training.

Dragon & Tiger Qigong
Dragon and Tiger Qigong is a seven-movement sequence of gentle, flowing exercises practised with mindful awareness. In Chinese, Qi refers to breath or vital energy, and Gong means skill developed through practice.
This form is often described as a medical Qigong practice, as it is widely used to support recovery from injury or illness and to help reduce chronic pain. The system was brought to the West and further adapted by B. K. Frantzis. I first began training in Dragon and Tiger Qigong in 2007, and have enjoyed practising and teaching it ever since.
The seven movements are simple to learn and accessible to people of all ages and abilities. Practised regularly, they help release tension and stagnant energy, support healthy circulation and body function, and cultivate a deep sense of calm, balance, and integration throughout the whole body.

Clear Water Qigong
Clear Water Classical Neigong and Daoyin combine gentle physical exercises and stretches with meditation. These practices are usually performed standing or sitting and have a long history in China. Images of people practising qigong postures and movements have even been found in tomb murals dating from 167 BCE.
Clear Water Qigong sessions are simple, quiet, and rooted in finding a natural sense of balance. The practice draws on Daoist philosophy, expressed in the saying:
“By sitting still, you can know the whole world.”
We begin with standing exercises that allow the body and mind to stretch, release tension, and settle into a natural alignment. At times the practice moves into quiet sitting, encouraging stillness and a deeper connection with the world around us.
The benefits of this practice can include:
• Release of physical tension
• A sense of calm and wellbeing
• Greater awareness of body and mind
• Improved balance and posture
• A quiet moment to step away from the busyness of daily life
Hidden Hands Taiji
Tai Ji Quan, also known as “Tai Chi” in the West, is an ancient
martial and health art which has its origins in the Wudang mountains of China.
In Tai Ji we learn to fill our whole body with awareness by engaging our bodies with slow and continuous motions.
By following the principle “the soft is beating the heart”, we can learn how efficient motions and
the right build-up of structure can improve our health condition while teaching us various ways of self-defense.
Ba Gua Zhang qigong
I start teaching the art of Bagua through Bagua Qigong,
a way of practising the foundations of the art that is simple, enjoyable, graceful, and strengthening for health and qi.
Ba Gua Zhang, “the Palm of the Eight Trigrams,” is known as the art of the circle.
Through its circular method of practice, Ba Gua Zhang teaches the practitioner how to create and guide spirals through the body. The development of these spirals is the secret behind the well-known light yet rooted stepping method of Ba Gua Zhang.
First Challenge: Circle Walking
In learning Ba Gua Zhang the traditional way, the student begins with circle-walking meditation. This practice develops balance, coordination, and internal connection, allowing the practitioner to gradually advance their abilities in Ba Gua Zhang.
