Tevia Feng: A Healing Qi Journey
“I was born with chronic illness and constant suffering. At the age of 7, I turned to martial arts, Qigong, and meditation to heal myself. That decision changed the course of my life.
Driven by a search for true healing, I traveled across China and the world, training with legendary Qigong masters. From them, I learned rare breathing methods, powerful energy practices, and ancient healing systems-teachings that have become the foundation of White Tiger Qigong today. Qigong has been with me through my darkest times and my greatest joys. It helped me overcome illness, calm anxiety, and transform fear into courage. It is not just a practice — it is my lifelong companion."

Both cover the full 8 Trigram curriculum. Vietnam is initiation — physical place, hands-on transmission, Lineage Seal, lifelong cohort. Online is practice — same curriculum, your own home, your own schedule, regular access to Tevia via weekly calls. Many students start online and travel to Vietnam later. Online graduates receive a Lineage Voucher toward any future Vietnam retreat.
Yes. We run an Online Path cohort that begins September 7, covering all five levels of 8 Trigram Qigong with live weekly masterclasses. The online cohort earns the Certified 8 Trigram Instructor credential. The Lineage-Sealed credential, our highest tier, is only available through Vietnam in-person.

You have lifetime access to the materials. If you cannot complete the modules during these specific weeks, you can move at your own pace and join the next cohort's live calls for free. You are not penalized for finishing later.
This course explores the Eight Trigrams (Ba Gua) - the energetic map of nature and the body. You’ll learn dynamic Qigong sequences that open the fascia, balance the organs, and connect movement, breath, and mind into a single flow. It’s both a personal transformation and a path toward teaching mastery.
No experience is required. The training starts from the foundations - posture, breath, and body awareness - then progressively builds toward advanced forms. Many students are beginners when they start and quickly develop skill and sensitivity through the guided curriculum.
Yes. The 8 Trigram forms are designed to release deep fascia tension and re-energize the organs without strain. Many students use it as a gentle recovery practice for stress, fatigue, and back issues under professional guidance.
Most students notice a shift within the first week - better breath, deeper sleep, and less tension. Over the first month, you’ll feel stronger, calmer, and more energetically aligned as the practice rewires your body–mind connection.
After passing your final evaluation and teaching assessment, you receive a certificate authorizing you to teach 8 Trigram Qigong as a White Tiger-certified instructor - in-person or online.
Yes. Every exercise offers gentle and advanced variations. We teach you how to adapt each form to your range of motion and healing pace so you can train safely at any age or level of fitness.
Yes - completing Levels 1 through 5 of the 8 Trigram Teacher Training meets the requirements for official White Tiger Qigong Instructor Certification. You’ll learn teaching methodology, anatomy, and correction skills for safe, effective instruction.
White Tiger Qigong fuses ancient Taoist wisdom with modern science of fascia and biomechanics. Unlike slow, repetitive styles, it uses spiraling movements that train mobility, organ health, and emotional balance simultaneously. It’s Qigong for real modern bodies - grounded in tradition, refined by research.
Yes - you’ll have opportunities to submit your practice videos and receive personalized feedback from certified White Tiger teachers during live calls or community review sessions. You also get a free video analysis in the teacher training.
Yes - you get lifetime access to all videos, manuals, and future updates to the course so you can return to the training as your practice evolves.
Instructor income varies widely. Our graduates typically earn from $50 to $200 per hour for private sessions and much more through workshops, corporate wellness programs, and online courses. We provide business training to help you build a sustainable career.
The first 2 weeks are in-person and the remaining levels 3-5 are online with HD video lessons and live masterclasses you can follow at your own pace from anywhere.
White Tiger Qigong bridges both. Our methods draw on Chinese medicine and Taoist philosophy but are also informed by modern fascia research, biomechanics, sports and neuroscience for a truly integrated mind-body system.
No - just comfortable clothing and a few square meters of open space. No props or mats are required, though some students use a Qi Mat for added comfort and energetic alignment.
Absolutely. If you don’t feel the program is right for you within the first 30 days, you can request a full refund - no questions asked. We stand by our training and want you to love your experience.
