Tai Chi Heart :: Chi Gung

Chi Gung

There are many forms and levels of chi gung. The system that I teach is called the Tao an Pai or Taoist Elixir Style. This is the system of Master Share K. Lew, a Taoist Priest from Guangdong Province in Southern China. I have been a student of Master Share K. Lew since 1976.

The Tao an Pai exercises are from a specialized branch of chi gung called Nui Gung (I use Cantonese pronunciations. It is also called Ni Kung). They develop and circulate the body’s internal energy in a very powerful way. I teach the exercises methodically, making sure that my students are doing the exercises correctly before moving on. There is a progression of exercises, beginning with exercises for overall health and progressing to more advanced and more powerful exercises. As quantum physics has proven, we are energy. These exercises enable a direct experience of who we are.

I teach as closely as I can the way I learned from Share K. Lew. I continue to consult with Master Lew regularly to refine the exercises. Each year I teach at Mater Lew’s retreat for senior students and to a dedicated group of Tao an Pai practitioners in Heidelberg, Germany.
