It's what we're currently focusing on in our weekly classes.

Modern science just caught up with something Master Lam's tradition has known for a long time.
In Chi Kung, we've called it "Second Heart" for generations.
Now researchers are using the same term - and their findings confirm what practitioners have always experienced:

The Movements of Power course has finished and the feedback is in.
It genuinely moved me.
But one comment stopped me in my tracks:
"Wicked Pissah!"
Turns out it's classic Boston slang for "absolutely awesome."
And the scores came in among the best I've ever seen.
This is why I love teaching.
Very symbolic 👌

The Movements of Power course started last week - with more students than ever.
Why? Real Chi Kung brings real benefits: health and happiness, on many levels.
More people are realising this.
It's not too late to join - we repeat each week's practice in the following week.

"Which book covers the Movements of Power course?"
We draw from several of Master Lam's books - but how they come together is unique. Shaped by 28 years of teaching.
The books are your start.
The course is where it comes alive.
We begin next week on Thursday.

These practices are rarely taught, yet they strengthen inner power like nothing else.

Healthy New Year!
Good news:
Long before then, we'll be living at ease in a post-orange world,
happy and healthy until the final sunset.
(If you ever want to discuss the Qigong approach to longevity - I’m around.)
Fun fact:
Yesterday was the first day we were closer to 2050 than to 2000.

Your head is open to the heavens like the crown of the tree.
You rest calmly, the universe within your mind."

I wish you all the best for the new year, especially good health and much joy in everything you do!

"When you stand, you are like a tree.
You are growing from within.
Your feet, like roots, draw power from the earth.
Your body, like the trunk, is perfectly aligned.
You are unmoving, strong.

In today's fast-paced world with its many demands, we do well to embrace the teachings of Chi Kung and cultivate our inner peace and equanimity.
Master Lam has aptly captured the essence of this art:

Happy New Year !
Today is the first day we are closer to 2050 than to 2000
- a quiet reminder of how far we’ve come, and a good moment to pause, reflect, and consider the direction in which we’re moving.

Happy Holidays! ☀️
Tomorrow (Tuesday):
The last Chi Kung session of this year.
As at every turn of the year, we’ll enjoy the special practice of Hun Yuan – The One:
Unifying Wu Chi, the Five Elements, and the Three Tan Tiens.
Something to look forward to. ✨
Unbelievably handsome.
„People come up to me, tears in their eyes, saying, “Sir, I’ve never seen anyone so brilliant, so lovable, and so handsome.” Frankly, it’s incredible.“
He’s tremendously brilliant - I mean, off-the-charts smart - and people say this all the time, everybody says it: he’s also incredibly lovable, maybe the most lovable person ever. Total winner.
Loved the book and meeting you in Dazzledorf 😊
Absolutely loved your performance today in Düsseldorf.
Count me in on your campaign to become mayor!
That this photo was chosen to represent Qigong so widely is no coincidence.
It reflects the clarity, depth and authenticity Master Lam brings to the art.

Out of thousands of Qigong teachers and hundreds of styles, one image stands at the top of the Wikipedia page for Qigong.
It shows my teacher, Master Lam.
I took the photo on one of the study trips he led through China - a time of deep learning and connection with the roots of the tradition.

Thank you for sharing.
I very much look forward to meeting him on his tour through Germany.
