Continuing Qigong: Medical Qigong in Practice – Fall 2026

Learn the same Medical Qigong exercises Master FaXiang Hou has taught and applied for more than 30 years as a Fifth-Generation Master of his family’s lineage. In this 10-week Continuing Qigong course, students deepen their understanding of the Five Elements and Six Organs while learning exercises designed to improve balance, address blockage, and support well-being. Medical Qigong is more than a personal practice. Students gain practical tools to support themselves, their families, loved ones, and even their pets. Master Hou’s work has also been involved in clinical research, including fibromyalgia, knee pain, and a recently completed collaboration with New York Medical College examining Medical Qigong for chronic low back pain. Suitable for students of all ages, this course serves as an important step toward future Applied Qigong Therapy training. Foundation Qigong is a prerequisite and may be taken concurrently.

The Season of Release

Autumn is the season of release. In Traditional Chinese Medicine Five-Element Theory, autumn is the time when the body naturally begins turning inward, releasing what is no longer needed before winter arrives. Associated with the Metal Element, this seasonal transition is connected to the lungs, large intestine, breath, purification, and internal balance. Rooted in the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Master Hou’s 5th-generation Medical Qigong lineage teachings, this guided Autumn Water Fast integrates: • Five-Element Theory • Medical Qigong exercises corresponding to the organ systems • Guided practices designed to support the body during the fast • Breath, stillness, and internal balance • Structured guidance throughout the experience This seasonal experience is designed to help participants align with the natural rhythms of autumn through intentional release, energetic support, and Traditional Chinese Medicine wisdom.
