Live & Online Qigong Courses At Red Thread

  • Health qigong is primarily focused on overall wellbeing, vitality, and general health. Anyone can benefit from health qigong practice and given the accessible and adaptability of practices, this type of qigong is best for beginners.

    All of our health qigong online is supported by the Chinese medicine theory behind the practices—giving you everything you need to understand what you are doing, feel confident in why you are doing it, and grasp how the practice works.

    These courses can be enjoyed everyday, and you can learn at your own pace!

20 hr. NCCAOM Approved CE / PDA

A complete (self-paced) qigong practice you can learn from home!

Everything you need to start your personal Qigong practice. Whether you’re 18 or 81—if you have a body, Insight Qigong was made for you. See yourself with better health today.

  • Medical qigong can be a very powerful practice for personal development and cultivation. More specialized and focused then a general health qigong practice, medical qigong can be tailored to fit a variety of lifestyles and health concerns.

    Our approach to medical qigong is to provide as much depth and detail as possible to allow students to create a personal practice that best achieves their personal health goals.

    If you are looking for a qigong practice to assist you with specific health challenges and concerns, or just want a practice that is more detailed and deeper than what health qigong can provide, then a medical qigong practice may be for you!
