Practice.   Connections.   Outreach.

The true reward of teaching qigong is
seeing students look vibrant, calm, and clear after class.

Qigong Smile studio classes are on pause due to the pandemic.
Since 2016, I’ve taught qigong and meditation in classes, workshops, weekend retreats, staff trainings, conferences and a college course for credit.
(For the specifics, see below the photo.)
I welcome email inquiries for any of the above to Chris Brandon Whitaker at qigongsmile@gmail.com.
