Inspired Living: Great Energy Healing Qigong Immersion & Level 1 Certification

The program is for beginners and experienced practitioners, especially yoga teachers, reiki practitioners, massage therapists, acupuncturists, coaches wanting to integrate qigong into their work, and students navigating midlife transitions or autoimmune conditions seeking a personal healing practice. No prerequisite credential required.

The curriculum is organised into eight self-paced modules covering qigong foundations — understanding qi, qigong forms, breathwork, meditation, and healing sound practices — alongside traditional Chinese medicine fundamentals, including the five elements, meridians, spine and nervous system, and the extraordinary meridians. Students explore over fifty qigong practices and eight full-length practice sets of around forty-five minutes each.

Teaching methodology is woven through the training, with modules on cueing, adapting practices for diverse students, opening and closing sessions, and building confidence as a teacher. The program also covers energetic and holistic integration — cultivating the dantian, effortless and energy meditations, and seasonal alignment — plus contemporary approaches that blend qigong with somatic modalities and the science behind the practice.

Additional content includes emotional release practices, forgiveness and relationship healing, and a business and marketing module for teachers who want to run their own classes.

The program is led by Christopher Grant, a Qigong Teacher Trainer and RYT-500 with roughly thirty years of practice in qigong, yoga, and meditation, alongside Daniela Hess (MSEd, CTACC, RYT-500), whose background is in somatic movement, grief work, midlife mastery, and autoimmune coaching. Guest instructors include Lorin Roche, Camille Maurine, Jacob Vermeulen, and Kim Beekman. Great Energy has trained over 10,000 students through its programs.

The format is hybrid: eight self-paced video modules accessed through a web platform or mobile app, combined with four weekly live Zoom sessions (qigong practice with Christopher on Sundays, lecture and Q&A with Daniela and Christopher on Mondays, and practice sessions with Robin and Rebecca on Tuesdays and Saturdays). All live sessions are recorded for students who cannot attend in real time. Time commitment runs about two to four hours per week, with twelve months of live support and platform access post-enrolment.
