Robert Peng: Qigong Healer Training

I feel full.  Wowed.  Inspired. Reignited.  Alive.

How do I put into words the experience of 2 weeks with Robert Peng?

Robert completely exceeded my expectations.  It is awe-inspiring to be in the presence of a truly enlightened individual.

He showed up without ego or judgement.  His light-hearted energy brought a vibrant, lively feeling to class.  Robert has a compassionate, engaging smile and warmly invites participants to play with energy.

It struck me how Master Peng answers complex energetic questions in beautiful clarity, concisely and with the weight of universal truths. His words are expertly selected to convey meaning with ease.  What a gift to avoid the vague, non-answers that I am accustomed to!

Our daily Qigong movements and meditations were playful and varied.  Robert mixed and matched forms, used intention to play with Qi balls, and integrated tapping and pressure points with the movements. We were taught practices that empower our intuition, Qi flow, and energetic integration throughout the body.  At this training, the form did not lead the energy, but rather the energy led the form.
