However, it is very much up to each individual to find a practice that they feel comfortable with. It is advisable, if you are going to practise Qi Gong seriously, to attend classes with an experienced master. They all have their own inimitable style and it's wise to check out who you feel you most easily connect with. Qi Gong masters often teach by what's known as Direct Transmission. Qi carries information and this allows learning to take place at a covert level.
Students absorb whatever level of information they are ready to access.
This same transmission can take place with other teachers too. It can certainly happen during Shiatsu teaching. So don't just watch or listen to what you're being taught, open up, tune in and feel what your teacher's doing. Further information will be published here on the type of Qi Gong offered by Zhixing Wang and Jane Pollard will give you some insight into Michael Tse's work. We would be pleased to hear of other people's experiences with their teachers.
