Qigong is the ancient Chinese art of cultivating qi — the vital energy that animates and sustains all living things. Through gentle movement, breathwork, and meditation, qigong offers a time-tested path to health, emotional balance, and spiritual awareness. The Ten Phases of Cultivating and Mastering Qi, developed by Dr. Roger Jahnke, OMD, author of The Healing Promise of Qi, offers one of the most complete and accessible frameworks for this practice available today.
In my group classes, we work with the nine movement phases of this framework — progressing through the Earth, HeartMind, and Spirit domains — as a complete and rewarding practice in itself. The streaming video program described here offers the full ten-phase journey, taught by Dr. Jahnke himself, for those who wish to go deeper.
What the Program Covers
Sessions 1–3 move through the three domains of practice. The Earth Domain awakens physical vitality and grounds the body in natural qi flow. The HeartMind Domain works with emotion, intention, and awareness to cultivate clarity and compassion. The Spirit Domain refines qi into Shen — the light of higher consciousness — through stillness, visualization, and meditative presence. Students of my Nine Phases class will find familiar territory here, explored with fresh depth and philosophical richness.
Session 4 is dedicated entirely to the 10th Phase — Qi Transmission — the art of consciously sharing healing energy with others, nearby or at a distance. This phase, not covered in group class movement practice, is where personal cultivation opens into service. Dr. Jahnke teaches the principles, ethics, and methods of heartfelt transmission rooted in compassion and intention.
Sessions 5 and 6 help you weave everything together into a sustainable personal daily practice, and invite you to embrace qigong not just as a form to be practiced, but as a way of being.
Who This Is For
Whether you are encountering the Ten Phases for the first time or have been practicing the nine movement phases in class for years, this program meets you where you are. It is particularly valuable for anyone ready to establish a personal home practice, explore the philosophical roots of what we do in class, or step into the role of sharing healing with others.

The program is available as a streaming video series with lifetime access. Investment is $330, with an optional 3-month payment plan.
