CTQS Instructor CertificationApplication for Training
The Qigong (EBQ) curriculum includes:
The taiji (EBT) curriculum includes instruction in an introductory 7-movement taiji form distilled from the Chen Shi Hunyuan 48-form. The movements were selected by Dr. Yang to be accessible to persons of all ages and physical ability, but challenging enough to yield improvements in motor skill, coordination, and cognitive function. The intention to obtain instrutor certification is not a requisite for attending the training. Indeed, approximately half of the students who attend are interested in pursuing certification, and the training camp is always a mix of absolute beginners, intermediate, and advanced practitioners. Attendees routinely include Taiji, Qigong, and Yoga practitioners, psychologists, social workers, caregivers, patients, and all persons interested in realizing: 1) the common root of all Eastern energy training, 2) the practical benefits of mind/body/spirit integrative exercise, and 3) the application and integration of practice in daily life. For those interested in the internal martial arts, the course provides the essential foundation for efficient practice, and is designed to instruct in the ultimate purpose of Taiji and Qigong exercise as stated in the classic Taiji Treatise: "With you whole being, develop your life." Certification is performance-based. Dr. Yang Yang and the Center for Taiji & Qigong Studies' standards are high and attendance does not guarantee certification. The intent of the certification program is quality control, to ensure that the teachings of Dr. Yang Yang are reproduced accurately without dilution of instructions in methods or purpose of practice. Quality will not be sacrificed for quantity. Follow the links below to find out more about the certification program. To learn more about the camp experience, you can:
