Frequently Asked Questions

Can anyone do Ki Training?
Ki Training can be done by anyone of any age or physical condition. The movements are very slow and gentle, but require concentration and focus. It is not how well one does the movements that matter, but how much one is able to bring energy into the body. The movements are simply the means to carry energy into the body, but the mind is the vehicle that receives energy. When we direct the mind to a certain part of the body, all the energy gathers in that area.


How often should I do Ki Training?
You can do training as often as you like. The more often you join the classes, the faster you can make progress. Ki Energy has a cumulative effect, i.e., as it builds up in the body and reaches an optimum level, it strengthens and repairs the energy system.


Should I do Ki Training even though I am not sick?
Ki Training is beneficial not only for physical illnesses, but also stress, depression, anxiety, insomnia, fatigue and pain. It is also preventative and aids spiritual growth. Due to the degradation of our natural environment, people are now more prone to environmental illnesses and weakened immunity. Scientific studies have showed the positive effect of Ki Training on the immune, respiratory, hormonal and cardiovascular systems.


Are there any side effects from Ki Training?
There are no side effects from Ki Training because it is a natural healing method. However, as the training opens up long-term energy blockages, sometimes people may experience some pain or discomfort as the energy starts to move to areas previously blocked. Also, Ki Training can tap into deeply held emotions, that once surfaced, may cause some discomfort, as we may have to confront certain aspects of our personality that could have contributed to ill health or disharmony in our lives. The Ki meditation helps tremendously to overcome these emotional blockages.


Is there a conflict between Ki Training and other therapies?
There is usually no conflict between Ki Training and other therapies. However, oftentimes people find that Ki Training can replace many of the other therapies they have been doing. Ki Training works on the root of physical and emotional problems, not simply alleviating their symptoms.


Is there a belief system behind Ki Training
Ki Training follows the principles of Nature and is rooted in the ancient martial arts.  It comes closest to a Taoist practice focusing on becoming one with the universe and finding balance and harmony within.
