Scholarship Award Recipient Shares After Completing Level I - Certification Program
Hello, Dear David and Tanya,
I would just like to write to you a deepfelt letter of appreciation for giving me the scholarship and the opportunity to learn Qigong. It has radically transformed my life; I cannot even begin to express it with words, but here I am trying. The results in my spiritual practices have escalated to a whole different level, and I have never experienced a growth like this in such a short time. Furthermore, I have been able to see results firsthand in other people who I have had the opportunity to teach Qigong to, I have had the chance to see some noteworthy positive reactions sometimes in little as 2-3 sessions, in people after we have done qigong together. People were able to let go of emotions they were imprisoned by for years, which came out in sudden outbursts of crying and letting go. Now, when I go to teach qigong classes, I intuitively channel what a person may need, and it is just magical. Yesterday after a qigong class a student who had done qigong with me for the first time said to me that she felt she did magic, and that resonates with what I feel too.
I am grateful beyond words to have crossed paths with you, dear David, and I see you as my mentor and teacher. I am amazed by the power in your voice and your commitment towards Qigong, and I intend to follow in the path of Qigong further with Qigong awareness.
I am beyond excited to keep going in this path. I am starting a new endeavour of teaching to a friend of mine who has cancer and is undergoing chemotherapy with caution, of course, and look forward to how this can be an aid in his healing journey.
Thank you for introducing this precious gem into my life, and I am eternally appreciative!
This is an amazing course. Taking this course was an incredibly enriching experience. From start to finish, I was inspired and challenged in all the right ways. The content was not only informative but also deeply engaging. The instructor brought clarity and passion to every lesson, making complex ideas easy to understand and apply.
What I appreciated most was how practical the course was—everything I learned could be immediately integrated into teaching. I walked away feeling more confident, equipped, and motivated. I wholeheartedly recommend this course to anyone interested in Qi Gong.
Student Shares After Attending Live 15 CEU Workshop - Medical Qigong & The Eight Brocades For Longevity
I’ve been studying Qigong under David Coon for the past several years. I recently attended a live weekend intensive. This is not my first live class, but my first live class in several years. As a healthcare provider for over 30 years, I can attest that this is a powerful investment that will benefit not only my patients but myself as well. I look at the weekend intensive as a retreat. I know that I will always have profound changes after it, and I am not let down.
As an acupuncturist, I understand that my energy levels have a great impact on the treatments that I give. Being able to incorporate medical qigong in the sessions and educate my patients on a few simple movements they can do themselves has been invaluable. As a long-term energy worker and student of energy medicine, and proficient in many modalities, I can attest that Qigong is my number one tool, which has also deepened my meditative and intuitive practices. And my qigong practice has improved my health and life, and I greet my daily work with joy.
Student Shares After Successful Completion Of Distance Acupuncture Course
I have a chronic 'catch' in my mid-spine from lifelong roto-scoliosis, and now, at almost 70 years old, there is a mild formation of some arthritis. During this course, I applied the 'remote' acupuncture to myself and 'placed' needles in the location I would normally do with actual needles. I not only got the same results and release, but it was 'faster' than when I do actual needles!! I did the same with the moxa presentation on CV 17 and then added CV 6 and felt an instant release and relaxation in my breathing and lower abdomen. Awesome!!! Love it! Can't wait to share this with others.

What was the highlight of this course for you? All of it!! Overall, it's David's passion, profound understanding, and mastery of the Qi. This course has re-lit my passion for Qigong!!
During this course, I could feel and had direct results from David's Qi. The last 5 years have been some of the hardest and most life-altering years of my life. In just a few days of following this course, a certain fatigue and stagnant energy that I had not been able to clear was lifted. Even though I've completed this course, I look forward to reviewing it multiple times. Thank you so much for sharing your wealth of knowledge and Qi for healing and consciousness expansion!!
Student Shares After Completing The 21 Day Qigong Challenge
Participating in The 21-Day Challenge was a great way to confirm that I want to continue my Qigong practice. My goal is to become a Certified Qigong Instructor. I am currently adding a few Qigong movements in my yoga classes.

Golden Dragon Medical Qigong Intensive - Alchemizing Stress & Restoring Balance
I feel that I am discovering something very new to me, but that really reconciles parts of myself that were separate: my need for physicality, my care for nature, my gardening, my appetite for self-reliance, and a rational, logical brain that wants to understand how things work even if (especially if) it challenges my habituated/learned way to analyze situation, phenomena. So, yes, I am challenged, but it is good. Reconciliating the Eastern and the Western traditions for myself is an urgent and meaningful project.
What was the highlight of the course for me? Being challenged by the healing sessions in the workshop in Colorado. It was a good shaker for me because it looked like magic until I started to deepen my Qi Gong practice, read more, and advance in the course.
Golden Dragon Medical Qigong Intensive: Alchemizing Stress & Restoring Balance
This Qigong course was truly transformative! I gained a deep understanding of how energy flows through the body and how specific Medical Qigong techniques can be used to restore balance, reduce stress, and promote healing. Learning how specific exercises, such as Waterfall, Red Roots Grow Deep, and Calming the Fire, can directly influence blood pressure, emotional balance, and pain relief was particularly fascinating! I feel more empowered to incorporate these practices into my daily life and share them with others. This course was an enlightening experience that has given me lifelong skills for health and vitality!

Absolutely worth making the trip to train with him in person
"I work full time as an acupuncturist and energy healer and have practiced qi gong daily for years. While I already have an energetic focus and framework in my life, this workshop added depth, expanse, and nuance to what I've cultivated so far. It has inspired me to deepen my practices and helped mobilize stuck energies and transform perspectives so I can find those next steps forward on my journey.
I have taken a couple of David's online trainings, but it was absolutely worth making the trip to train with him in person. As soon as I registered, I started to feel building momentum and change. The weekend intensive was beautifully run- integrating theory, philosophy, meditation, healing work, demonstrations, and discussion along with the qi gong movements. I have no question that this will come through to benefit my practice, my clients, and my personal development. I look forward to seeing what grows from the impact of this workshop and the tools it has given me."
