Student Testimonials

“A very meaningful course with practical and easy-to-follow exercises! Master Xuanchu is very approachable and explains things in a clear and engaging way. After studying and practicing for a while, not only did my emotional state and physical health improve, but I also transformed the way I see the world—viewing it from a cultivation perspective! Truly amazing!”

“I have studied from Master Xuanchu for several years. He is highly accomplished in the realm of Daoist cultivation, and is able to convey the esoteric knowledge of Daoist cultivation in an accessible and comprehensible way. Throughout my practice, he has offered detailed guidance at each stage. Over time, I have experienced marked improvements in my physical well-being, with enhanced circulation of qi and blood and a notable increase in vitality. On a spiritual level, my perception of the world has become increasingly profound, as if I have glimpsed the doorway to a more profound and mystical dimension.”

Chaochen Shi
“Instructor Zhaoning has helped me stabilize my mind through balancing and harmonizing my internal organs—a perfect approach for someone like me, who struggles many years with my monkey mind. Rather than merely calming my mind on a spiritual level, she has helped me ground myself through the practical cultivation of Daoist practices. As my body becomes healthier, my emotional spikes have also started to decrease, creating a mutually reinforcing cycle between the inner nature and vital energy. It’s truly incredible to think that such an extraordinary system has existed for thousands of years already, far ahead of the emergence of modern science.”
