Master Qi Gong Teacher Peter About the Course

Real Stories from Our Students

'After the course, I noticed some of my long-standing health issues started to improve – things like indigestion, belching, and even sleepless nights.

I remember taking an evening stroll after the course, and all my senses felt sharper and more vivid – food tasted better, the night lights looked wonderful, and everything just felt... harmonized.

Other people who attended the course with me shared benefits such as improved vision, reduced hypertension, and emotional releases. It was my first practical introduction to Qi Gong, and it opened doors of new perception and possibilities for me.'
Vannya Anjani
'BDJ is a great way for me to access the deeper emotions (fear, anger, grief) and the way it is sequenced makes it very safe for me to drop into these emotions knowing that i will get to work through them with each posture.'
Jean Christian Tuyishime
'The course blessed me with a new and exciting experience and opened a new window of my life. The course was valuable, methodical, fun and energetic.'
Marcel de Wolf
