integral way tradition for
tai chi & qi movement arts (Qigong, Dao-In)
CEU: RME - ASCA.
Chi Rivers offers a form review and Teacher Training seminar for all the Qi movement arts we lead. The review seminar can be taken to deepen one's personal practice or as the pre-requisite for taking the teaching exam for each section. The teaching exam can be taken with our College of Tao accredited instructors.
The Chi Health Institute of the College of Tao grants certification in Dao-In, Eight Treasures, Crane Style, Tai Chi and other Qi movement arts to those who have gained learning and experience with the form, completed a Teacher Training Intensive (see above), have completed the on-line course, Entering the Tao: Spiritual Self Development I, and have passed a Practical Exam.
Entering the Tao: Spiritual Self Development I has been established to support a life-long experience and heighten the potential benefit from practicing and sharing Qi movement arts. The Eight Treasures and other Qi movement arts we teach are not done merely for physical exercise but to cultivate and refine our energy. To become a teacher following the Taoist tradition of the Integral Way requires gathering broad experience and exposure to the basic principles and self-cultivation methods of the tradition. This course involves reading, practice and self-study to contextualise, deepen and elucidate your experience of Qi and self-cultivation.
