DESCRIPTION: Prana and Qi (“chee”) both refer to your body’s natural life force—your energy. In this class, we work with that energy directly through the practice of Daoist Nei Gong, learning how to feel it, cultivate it, and refine it from the inside out.

This is a slow, deeply meditative practice that works beyond the muscular system into the subtler layers of the body—connective tissue, fascia, breath, nervous system, and energetic pathways (nadis or meridians). Through standing practices and sustained internal awareness, we release tension, improve circulation, and gently awaken the body’s internal energetic flow.

From there, we move into stillness—using Daoist meditation techniques to turn inward, settle the mind, and deepen awareness, clarity, and connection. Over time, this practice supports the refinement of energy from physical vitality (Jing), to life force (Qi), to more subtle states of presence and consciousness (Shen).

☯️ Morning sessions are more Yang—focused on standing practices that build energy, clarity, and grounded focus for the day ahead.

☯️ Evening sessions are more Yin—slower and more internal, with longer periods of seated practice and meditation to unwind, restore, and return to stillness.

No experience needed—just curiosity and a willingness to slow down and go within.
