    "I draw on many different aspects of Qigong in my work as a psychologist to support my clients to become more embodied and better able to regulate their emotions and nervous systems.

    "Qigong has also deepened my capacity to be deeply present with and attuned to my clients, which I consider essential to the work that I do. Nicole is an extremely gifted teacher and mentor. I can’t recommend her more highly!"

Why this approach to Qigong Teacher Training…

Qigong is a path of cultivation, refinement, and embodiment — it can’t be rushed. Gong means skill, and true skill requires dedication.

In the past, I’ve offered group-based training with only a few days of in-person learning or limited support sessions. While this provides a foundation, it doesn’t allow for the depth of practice and integration needed to develop real skill and confidence as a teacher. It can also send the wrong message—that Qigong can be learned quickly and taught after just a handful of sessions.

That’s why my accredited Qigong Teacher Training is now only available via mentorship.

This approach ensures:

  • Deeper Integration – Learn through ongoing guidance, not just theory.

  • Personalised Support – One-on-one sessions refine your practice and teaching.

  • Flexibility & Depth – Choose your own learning path while maintaining strong foundations.

  • Integrity in Certification – Certification reflects deep practice and embodiment, not just attendance.

This shift honors the essence of Qigong, a lifelong journey, not a short-term course.
