How can we become more resilient, more vital, more peaceful? With practice, Qigong will transform YOU!
MARCH 14 - MAY 16, 2024
You Are Needed More Than Ever!
Qigong and Tai Chi are among the most accessible tools ever developed by humanity for maximizing health, vitality and resiliency and sustaining wellbeing and productivity ... and inner peace! That is amazing!
What would happen if everybody knew that the most powerful healing powers are not at the hospital or the pharmacy...
BUT INSTEAD - Within Our Own Being?
Since the founding of the Institute of Integral Qigong and Tai Chi (IIQTC) in the year 2000, Dr. Roger Jahnke, OMD and IIQTC Faculty have trained over 3000 Teachers and Practice Leaders internationally!
As Certified Integral Qigong and Tai Chi Teachers and Integral Qigong and Tai Chi Students (Level 1 or Level 2), you’ve joined a dynamic community of Mind-Body Professionals with
- An enthusiastic commitment to empowering people.
- And, you are already empowering yourself.
Many IIQTC Graduates report that becoming an Integral Qigong and Tai Chi Teacher has totally transformed their lives!
This review training is now less expensive since you will not need to buy travel, lodging nor 3 daily meals. We are excited about the “model” for the training – part video, part Zoom gatherings, plus practicum (practice teaching with fellow trainees) AND participation in small Mastermind empowerment groups.
The Level 1 Training Review is 3 modules, separated by 14 days allowing for you to fully integrate of the material. In former in person trainings, the curriculum was packed into one 7 day training retreat. Because all curriculum is delivered by both video and group gathering, you have lifetime access to the video for review. This fantastic new model highlights the benefit of online training - less cost, more integration time, and lifetime access to the curriculum.

Most institutions (YMCA, schools, community centers, churches, corporations, VA programs, etc.) will eventually require at least 200 hours of training to be hired as a teacher / instructor. However, many IIQTC graduates with as little as 16 hours (Healer Within Practice Leader), 25 hours (Tai Chi Easy Practice Leaders) or 65 hours (Level 1 Qigong Teacher) have been hired with much less than 200 hours.
The IIQTC Integral Qigong and Tai Chi Teacher 200 Hour Teacher Training (Levels 1, 2, and 3) meets the Professional Membership criteria (200 hours of documented formal Qigong Training) approved by the National Qigong Association (NQA) for Professional Membership application. Dr. Jahnke is one of the founders of the NQA.
