Great Energy Qigong for Yoga Schools

Integrate our Qigong training modules into Your 300-Hour Yoga Teacher Training

Why Top Yoga Schools Train Teachers in Both Yoga AND Qigong

Yoga school owners want to graduate teachers who are skilled, sovereign, and capable of guiding students through the complexity of the modern nervous system. 

Qigong gives your trainees what traditional yoga programs often miss: a direct, embodied understanding of energy, emotional regulation, and somatic intelligence. 

When yoga and Qigong come together, teachers become more grounded, more intuitive, and more effective in the classroom. 

This module gives your trainees access to the subtle-body wisdom that most YTTs only talk about - and without it, they miss an entire dimension of embodied teaching. 

Adding Qigong elevates your curriculum into a truly holistic training that equips yoga teachers to meet real students, with real bodies, in real life.

The Top 10 Reasons Yoga Schools Add Qigong to their Curriculum

  1. Your advanced yoga students are seeking deeper training beyond asana and pranayama – they want real energy literacy.

  2. Without Qigong, your trainees miss the subtle-body skills needed for modern nervous-system and somatic work.

  3. Qigong gives them a direct, embodied experience of Qi flow they cannot access through yoga alone.

  4. It strengthens emotional regulation, grounding, and inner stability - essential tools for today’s teachers.

  5. It transforms good yoga teachers into exceptional ones by expanding their capacity to feel, direct, and teach energy.

  6. It fills the gap left by traditional YTTs, offering students a broader, more integrated foundation in embodied awareness.

  7. It enhances pranayama, meditation, sequencing, cueing, and presence - elevating all aspects of their yoga teaching.

  8. It prepares teachers to support students with anxiety, burnout, trauma patterns, and nervous-system dysregulation.

  9. It differentiates your school as forward-thinking, somatically grounded, and energetically comprehensive.

  10. Created by RYT500 teachers Christopher Grant and Daniela Hess, this module integrates seamlessly into your curriculum and requires no additional faculty or resources.

Benefits for Your School

  1. Expand your 300-hour YTT with a turn-key Qigong module

  2. Enrich your training with evidence-based somatic movement and breathwork

  3. Equip teachers to support emotional regulation, resilience, and balance

  4. Increase student satisfaction and retention

  5. Add Yoga Alliance CE hours from an experienced YACEP without extra faculty burden

  6. Partner with world-class Qigong faculty trusted by over 1,000 graduates

The Great Energy Qigong YTT module offers a natural extension to the traditional 300-hour curriculum: somatic, accessible, and rooted in nervous system regulation.

“Our trainees now understand energy not just as theory - they can feel it, embody it, and teach from it.”

Honoring Qigong & Yoga Traditions

Great Energy Qigong is rooted in gratitude for the many teachers and lineages who continue to share the living arts of energy cultivation and embodied awareness. Our approach is inspired by the depth and diversity of traditions shared by masters and modern innovators alike - including QiYoga with Luchin, Lee Holden Qigong, Daisy Lee Radiant Lotus Qigong, Nick Loffree Qigong, YOQI with Marissa, Spring Forest Qigong, and White Tiger Qigong, as well as decades of study within Ashtanga, Iyengar, Kripalu, and Kundalini Yoga Traditions.

Each has contributed to the global awakening of these ancient healing arts, reminding us that Qi and prana flow through all paths devoted to presence, vitality, and wholeness.
