Awakening Lineage Holders: Building Our Living Tradition
Dear White Tiger Qigong Family,
As I write this, I’m struck by the depth and urgency of our mission. When I founded White Tiger Qigong, my vision was never just to build a business or teach techniques, but to create a living chain of transformation—a legacy that would outlast any single person, trend, or generation.
What Does It Mean to Be a Lineage Holder?
To be a lineage holder is to do more than master forms. It means you embody the spirit, skill, and wisdom of Qigong—not just in practice, but in how you live, teach, and inspire others. Our aim is to awaken 1,000 true lineage holders: individuals who will carry this tradition forward, preserving its depth while evolving it for the needs of a new era.
Why does lineage matter?
- Legacy Over Vanity: In a world chasing quick results and social metrics, we focus on building a living legacy. Each lineage holder is a link in an unbroken chain—ensuring that the authentic, healing power of Qigong continues to thrive.
- Deep Practice, Not Surface Skills: Our lineage holders go beyond certification. They walk the path of self-mastery, inner healing, and true service, integrating Qigong into their lives and the lives of those around them.
- Transmission & Preservation: Only by investing in real, human-to-human transmission can we safeguard the subtleties, beauty, and impact of this art for the future.
- A Global Ripple Effect: Every new lineage holder can touch thousands of lives. Imagine the wave we create as we reach 1,000—spreading healing, wisdom, and balance around the world.
How do you walk this path?
- Step-by-Step Growth: Our instructor certification is a journey—Assistant, T1–T5, Senior Instructor, Lineage Holder—each stage is earned through genuine study, integration, and service.
- Rooted in Tradition, Guided by Science: We honor every Taoist and martial-arts lineage, blending it with neuroscience and sports science. Our lineage holders are both guardians of tradition and leaders in innovation.
- Belonging and Purpose: As you grow, you become part of a living community—teachers, mentors, and students—dedicated to mastery and support.
Are you called to join us on this path? If you feel the pull, know that you’re needed. Every new lineage holder helps keep the White Tiger spirit vibrant, evolving, and accessible for all.
Why White Tiger Qigong? Building a Legacy Beyond the Self
You may wonder why I chose the name “White Tiger Qigong” rather than creating a personal brand, as so many teachers do. There’s nothing wrong with personal brands—they often grow fast and can be effective vehicles for sharing knowledge. But for me, true Qigong is about legacy, not personality.
Many have encouraged me to use my own name, to put myself front and center. But I have no interest in self-promotion or aggrandizement. My goal is not to make myself the brand, but to create a living tradition—one that can endure and thrive long after I am gone.
White Tiger Qigong is rooted in the ancient Taoist lineages, but it is not bound to one individual. It’s a system designed to empower generations of practitioners and teachers, each becoming a vital link in an unbroken chain. When you join White Tiger Qigong, you are not following a single teacher—you are entering into a legacy that is meant to be preserved, evolved, and transmitted to those who come after you.
In a world full of personality-driven wellness brands, we are committed to building something greater: a genuine, living lineage of Taoist Qigong. Our focus is on awakening lineage holders—practitioners and instructors who carry this art forward, keeping it vibrant and relevant for future generations. This is the reason we are “White Tiger Qigong.” This is why our movement is bigger than any one person.
Innovation in Action: Course Launches & Tech Upgrades
This July 23rd, we launch the 8 Trigram Qigong Mastery Course & Teacher Training.
This course is our most advanced and innovative offering yet—featuring the dragon-like, coiling movements of 8 Trigram Qigong, brought to life with motion capture suits and 3D animation. You’ll be able to see and feel Qi flow in ways never before possible.
In August, we gather in Bali for the 5 Element Qigong Mastery & Teacher Training, an immersive retreat to deepen your practice and connection to the Five Elements in one of the world’s most sacred natural settings.
New Healing Pathways: Cancer Recovery Workshop
This week, we are launching a special Cancer Recovery Workshop—an initiative close to my heart. This program is designed for those navigating cancer recovery, offering practical Qigong for healing, resilience, and hope.
Continuous Evolution: Platform & App Upgrades
Our tradition is living and evolving. We’ve been upgrading all our courses and our platform, making the White Tiger Qigong experience smoother, richer, and more powerful.
Now, you can access every course on our brand-new app—available on iPhone and tablet—so your practice is always within reach. Just log in and you’ll see it in your account.
A Personal Invitation
I invite you—whether you’re a beginner, a long-time practitioner, or an aspiring teacher—to look within and ask:
- Am I ready to go deeper?
- Am I called to become a link in this living chain?
If the answer is yes, know that there is a place for you in this lineage. This is not just my journey—it is ours, together.
Thank you for being part of White Tiger Qigong. Thank you for choosing depth, legacy, and true transformation.
With Qi and gratitude,
Tevia Feng
Founder, White Tiger Qigong
