FIVE IMMORTALS QI GONG INTENSIVE 2018

Playa del Carmen, Mexico ~ November 17th & 24th

See PICTURES & STUDENTS' COMMENTS below

Qi Gong is a practice with more than 5000 years of history, consisting on meditation movements to cultivate Qi (vital force), inner peace and harmony. It's a practice that integrates mind, body and Spirit. In this case it is a pure ancient Daoist lineage Qi Gong from the Five Immortals Temple, Sacred Mountains of Wudang, China.

Qi Gong empowers you, defies your mind, your breathing, your coordination and your will, in a peaceful and beautiful way. It is a dynamic and flexible practice, for all ages, physical conditions and ideologies. No material or experience is required, just an open mind and open heart.

The course is designed for you to be able to practice on your own, understanding the practice with enough depth from the Daoist traditional and spiritual perspectives, and what are its benefits.

  • Calms the mind, reduces stress and anxiety

What students say...

I have followed Teacher Andrea since she started sharing her experience, knowledge and skills in Playa del Carmen. I attended many Qi Gong and Tai Chi practices, her first Qi Gong intensive course, learned the Water Tai Chi form, and also the Daoist Medicine and acupressure course. All of it is now the foundation of my new life, having understood that the power of selfhealing in within oneself, we only need to learn to cultivate it! Andrea brought all of this from the Wudang mountains, put it (?) at my reach, direct teachings from millenary lineages, and it has been a treasure. I highly recommend Teacher Andrea for her integrity, commitment, passion, preparación/studies, patience and warmth as she offers her teachings. Thank you! - Josefa.

This course opened a great understanding to me about what you can do by moving your body, it was incredible to be able to feel the energy as I remember during the practice, you can feel how it works in blockages. It is truly impressive, I recommend the course with my eyes closed. It is also incredible to witness the simple and very understandable way our friend and teacher Andrea teaches, and how she enjoys sharing her experience. 
Andrea, we will be waiting for more courses as soon as possible. Blessings! - Hugo. 

Andrea, the teacher, is patient, sentitive, enthusiastic, dynamic and has great interest to share with her students the knowledge and experience she gained with her teacher in the mountains of China. I am a 60-year-old woman, and when I met Andrea I had a sensitive injury in my right knee; she managed to awaken my confidence to heal myself, leave the crutches and allopathic medicine. I thank her for all the teachings shared during all the courses I got to experience: the intensive Qi Gong course, the acupressure and massage Daoist Medicine workshop, the Qi Gong and Tai Chi classes. Andrea, you are full of virtues, thank you for showing me the way- Lupita.

Thank you Andrea for your heart and devotion when transmitting Qi Gong, you are a great teacher, your teaching style is very clear and since I took part in the course it is clearer than ever to me that I will never stop practicing QiGong. I send you a warm hug and I hope you continue teaching this beautiful healing practice in different places of the world - Carolina.

Wonderful experiences both the intensive Qi Gong course and the Daoist Medicine workshop, Andrea's teachings and all the ancient wisdom she shares are excellent! Great teacher, I highly recommend her! Thank you!!!- Tatiana.

I feel very fortunate to have participated in the Five Immortals Qi Gong intensive course led by Andrea. With her great Spirit and passion she took us to the Wudang mountains and thought us this incredible Daoist self-healing practice, properly supported by its theory. Infinite thanks Teacher!- Priscila.

The practice of the Qi Gong Andrea teaches offered me countless benefits in terms of physical and emotional health, I noted them throughout the classes I took, also after attending the Qi Gong intensive course, what I learned during the course helped me to develop more tranquility during situations of stress, and to understand better the use of Chinese Medicine and how our meridians (energy channels) work. If you have the chance, do not miss the classes and the course, practice with her, teacher Andrea knows how to guide you to succeed- Rosa.

The Qi Gong classes with Andrea were wonderful, I attended many of them and I always felt so full of energy and at peace when I practiced. I strongly recommend the intensive Qi Gong course as well!! Andrea, I hope you can continue teaching. Thank you! - Rosy.

From China and Mexico to the world, with love.
