Energy Arts Training Circle 2022 – Bruce Frantzis

Energy Arts Training Circle 2022 – Bruce FrantzisA Personal Letter from Bruce…Hi Folks,Welcome to the special offer of the Energy Arts Training Circle: Gods Playing in the Clouds Mastery Edition. We are opening up a short enrollment window in 2022 for a limited time and it will be a while till we up the Circle.Each year I commit myself to providing the highest quality training in a step-by-step monthly format that allows students to grow and learn within a supported environment.This monthly training circle has become a foundation for many of our students to deepen their practice with consistent classes and exercises that would otherwise be unavailable.Moreover, the Energy Arts Training Circle has become a reliable community of hundreds of dedicated practitioners who are serious about authentic Taoist energy arts.My hope is that you find a home here, and discover your true potential as a Taoist practitioner.Gods Qigong dates back 3000 years and is one of the oldest qigong and neigong sets from the Eastern traditions. Many consider Gods Playing in the Clouds to be a core of Taoist energy arts and perhaps the most transformational of all qigong sets.Gods consists of only six interlinked physical movements. They might look simple on the surface, however the internal energetic restructuring is the deepest and most complete training in Taoism.We have been releasing the Gods material inside the Training Circle for about a year so when you join you are going to get access to that information and the more advanced Gods training we do throughout this year.This is the most in-depth teaching of this subject and contains enough training to last a lifetime. I hope you will join us.In Appreciation,Bruce Frantzis“In every seminar with Bruce we are always impressed by how much deep and valuable material he is presenting in a down to earth, practical and understandable way.

He is a true catalyst, bringing about dynamic changes to your physical body, chi, mind and spirit as your skills increase. Generous and compassionate, he communicates from the heart and is appropriately challenging on every level!”Patrick Foley & Jane LaunchburyStudents of Bruce and his Senior Instructor Brian Cooper since 1991Learn an Authentic Lineage from Ancient ChinaLiu Hung ChiehI was taught Gods Playing in the Clouds by my last teacher in China, Taoist master Liu Hung Chieh.Liu Hung Chieh was a master of Bagua, Tai Chi, Hsing-i and Taoist meditation. He was a master calligrapher and classical Chinese scholar who had a complete knowledge of traditional Chinese medical theory.Because Gods is one of the oldest and most powerful Taoist rejuvenation methods, Liu practiced Gods daily after age 50 to enhance his personal longevityMy other Master Teachers, Wang Shu Jin, Hung I Hsiang and Liu Hung Chieh all had incredible power. They had the ability to discharge energy (fa jin) to the extent that they could effortlessly and painlessly uproot and send the strongest of students flying for many feet in any direction they chose.They also had the ability to touch you with no apparent force and project their energy inside the body to cause injury or pain, if necessary. Liu had the added ability to heal with the same light fa jin touch.Of the three men, Liu was the most powerful. This fact is hard to believe since Liu weighed less than 110 pounds, whereas Hung was in the 240-pound range and Wang was closer to 300 pounds. On one of my first days with Liu, he asked about my martial arts background. Liu said that I looked big and strong, which I was at over 200 pounds. As a small test, he got up and put his hand in the Single Palm Change posture and asked me to move it. I could not. Like Wang, Liu said that chi was more important than size, youth or strength.Liu was also able to understand and communicate the whole interconnected overview of qigong (chi gung). This experience for me was different from that obtained from my other teachers, who were adepts at specific areas of qigong, but were unable to connect all the various divergent threads of the complete qigong tapestry.We have him to thank for much of this program and especially for transmitting the teachings from Taoist meditation. It is here for you to learn and further your own path.Receive 3 Powerful Taoist Practices Each Month#1 Foundational Gods Playing in the CloudsLearn the 6 CORE power movements of Gods Playing in the Clouds and how the external physical movements encompass all the internal techniques of qigong.Excellent introduction to qigong and other Taoist practicesLearn internal alignments, breathing and specialized qigong stretchingMake your bones stronger, improve digestion, boost spleen and pancreas functionCleanse your emotional body of negative energyOpen and stabilize your lower tantien (physical/energetic center of the body), kwa, and spine to release blockages and energize the body#2) Intermediate to Advanced Gods Playing in the CloudsLearn how to combine the 16 neigong principles in one unified practice that builds internal Chi and health.
