Sensing Qi — A Five-Week Exploration of Inner Energy
Tuesdays, Feb 17 - Mar 27 | 11:00AM–12:00 PM EST | $80 | Online
Open to all levels of experience
Develop an embodied relationship with qi.
In each session, we explore simple, accessible practices that help you:
-
notice sensation and energy in the body
-
build a bridge between energy and action, sensation and movement
-
develop trust in your own perceptionÂ
Classes include gentle standing or seated practices, slow movement, breath, and guided sensing exercises, along with short reflections that help orient the experience without pulling you out of it.
While I come to each class with a clear intention and framework, I teach responsively. Qi is not something to be forced or rushed, and I don’t believe learning happens best when experience is constrained by a rigid outline. As the group’s sensitivity deepens, practices may shift, slow down, or change direction to support what is actually emerging.
Over time, the emphasis in this class naturally moves toward direct experience—learning to listen, feel, and respond—rather than trying to “do it right.” This makes Sensing Qi especially supportive for those who are curious about energy work but want it grounded, paced, and integrated with the nervous system.
No prior experience with qi, taiji, or qigong is required.
Who this is for
Many energy practices focus on visualization, technique, or achieving a particular state. In Sensing Qi, the primary skill we develop is listening.
Listening (ting jing) helps us learn how to feel qi, how it moves, gathers, disperses, or becomes quiet. This approach supports clarity, steadiness, and discernment, and tends to be especially helpful for those who:
-
feel overwhelmed by too much technique
-
want energy work that respects the nervous system
-
are interested in subtle awareness that includes eastern energetic medicine and philosophy
This class meets you where you are and unfolds over time.

 New to Sensing Qi?
This class is designed to be accessible, even if you’ve never practiced energy work before.
You don’t need to “see energy,” visualize, or have any prior experience with qi, taiji, or qigong. What’s most important is a willingness to slow down, notice sensation, and stay curious.
In class, you can expect:
-
gentle movement or stillness (standing or seated)
-
guided practices that help you feel and track sensation and energy
-
a pace that supports the nervous system
-
clear verbal guidance, with room for your own experience
There’s no pressure to perform or get it “right.” Sensitivity develops gradually, and confusion or uncertainty is a normal part of learning to sense more subtly.
If you can feel your breath or notice sensation in your body, you already have everything you need to begin.
Qi is alive and responsive.
Qi is alive, responsive, and relational.
Because of this, I don’t teach from a rigid outline or attempt to move everyone through the same experience at the same pace. I arrive prepared, with a clear framework and intention, but I stay attentive to what’s actually present—in the practices, in the group, and in the subtle shifts that arise as sensitivity deepens.
When a practice wants to slow down, simplify, or take a different direction, I follow that lead. This responsiveness allows the work to remain grounded and honest, rather than theoretical or forced. It also supports the nervous system, creating a sense of safety and continuity rather than pressure to achieve a particular result.
My aim is not for students to rely on me to interpret their experience, but to develop trust in their own sensing and discernment.
Over time, the structure becomes internal, and practice becomes something you can meet with clarity, steadiness, and confidence—both in class and on your own.
