Certified Instructor vs Accredited Teacher
Two Paths to Teaching Qigong or TaiChi
We understand that not everyone can travel to China for training. That's why we've designed two distinct paths to becoming a certified Qigong instructor: one fully online and one that includes study at our centre in China. Why choose the Teacher Diploma? Discover the key advantages it offers over the Instructor Certificate: In-person Training: The Diploma programme includes intensive in-person training with Master Ping at our retreat centre in China, providing a deeper level of immersion and personalized guidance. Depth of Knowledge: The Diploma programme delves deeper into the theory, philosophy, and practical applications of Tai Chi & Qigong, offering a more comprehensive understanding. Prestige and Recognition: The Accredited Teacher Diploma carries greater prestige and recognition within the FangYuan community and may open doors to further opportunities, such as joining our franchise programme or becoming a disciple of Master Ping.
