Yoqi Immersion

**YOQI Instructor Training Immersion 2026**
**Beyul Retreat, Colorado | August 16–25, 2026**

This retreat is part of the YOQI® Module 1 Certified Instructor Training Program—an accredited, in-depth training in Qigong, Taoist breathwork (pranayama), meditation, and Traditional Chinese Medicine theory through the lens of the YOQI method. Whether you're on the path to certification or simply seeking to deepen your practice, this immersion offers a rare opportunity to study and embody the wisdom of energy cultivation in a supportive and nature-filled environment.

While the atmosphere is serene and nourishing, this is also a rigorous and intentional immersion—designed to build discipline, willpower, and mastery in Qigong. Mornings are devoted to movement and theory, while afternoons offer space for integration, rest, nature adventures, or personal reflection. Evening sessions include guided meditations, and group connection.

Whether you are beginning your teaching journey or returning to renew your Qi, this retreat is a powerful container to awaken your potential, embody the flow of nature, and align with your purpose.
