Frequently Asked Questions
I am wondering if it is safe to do a Medical Qigong session or Qigong class with a pregnant woman? Thanks!!
Good question. When someone is pregnant relaxation and smoothness of flow is appropriate. So when doing Qigong simply slow and easy movements and breath. Nothing too dramatic like breath of fire or challenging Qigong poses for extended periods of time. Everything mindful.
The same is true for a medical Qigong treatment. Very smooth healing sessions – everything calming. You know if a pregnant person is receiving too much energy during a Medical Qigong session when they get stressed and overtly bumpy? Make sure everything is instead is smooth emotional, soft tears is fine. The emotional catharsis that is “bumpy” while pregnant as opposed to smooth is not recommended.
So watching and holding space and if things start building up, the breathing gets heavier or the blood is pumping harder or you see the face getting red then you need to back off and calm everything down down down. Bring energy back to the feet have the person open and close hands. Ground them. Coach them in a normal breathing pattern ” I want you to breathe in through your nose and slowly exhale through your nose and then mouth. Relax everything is ok.”
But if your paying attention there should be no problem. This isn’t going to happen right away..so simply be watchful and work gently and do no harm..
I loved the online course Alchemizing Stress & Restoring Balance. Would you ever teach that one live again?
Thanks for asking this question. At this time we are only planning on teaching one live intensive course at a time each year or two and then filming the course in a studio. So, we do not plan on reteaching previous workshops from past years. We attempt to create a new course each year so that our students can still receive credit from the acupuncture and massage boards each year to renew their licenses.

David J. Coon, Medical Qigong Master, Head Instructor and Co-Founder of Qigong Awareness, LLC.
Meet David J. Coon
Medical Qigong Master and Author
David is a Medical Qigong Master with over thirty years of experience facilitating healing for people using Medical Qigong. He is currently an accredited continuing education provider by the NCCAOM, Texas Medical Board, CE Broker, Florida State Board for Acupuncture, and California Acupuncture Board.
When David was fifteen years old he was diagnosed with a severe spinal disease and told that he would be crippled by the time he was thirty years old. Unwilling to accept this fate, David began intensively studying Oriental Medicine, Medical Qigong, Martial Arts and Meditation.
David learned how to cultivate and direct the energetic life force called Chi in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Through Qigong practice, David healed his spinal disease completely! David also found that his mood, his attitude, his outlook on life, and his intuition had all increased exponentially. He was drawn to teaching and sharing these healing practices and spiritual counsel with others.
David also has a vast Martial Arts background with Black Belts in Karate, Tae Kwon Do and Kenpo Karate. He has been an Instructor of Jeet Kune Do and Filipino Martial Arts. He has also studied Japanese Ju Jitsu, Kung Fu, Small Circle Ju Jitsu, Aikido, Chen Style Tai Chi, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Pen Jak Silat, Kendo and more..
David’s Qigong Practices are underpinned by his Psychology degree from the University of Connecticut and three years of experience as a Professional Counselor in Louisville,Colorado. He also spent three years at the University of Colorado studying Molecular and Cellular Biology to better understand the inner workings of the body on a cellular and biochemical level.
He has taught and lectured around the country to both lay people and professionals about the healing power of Qigong. David’s Qigong practices are now being practiced around the world. They are simple, effective and can be practiced by anyone at any age.
Tanya Coon's Distance Acupuncture Course was clear, concise, easy to follow.

I found Tanya’s Distance Acupuncture course to be even more than I anticipated.
I found Tanya's Distance Acupuncture course to be even more than I anticipated. It has not only helped with suggestions for new patients but shown me a new skill set that I wish to pursue. The instructor was lively, professional and easy to understand. Thank you.

David has made a significant contribution to my own health and the health of my clients.
My practice of qi gong with David has made a significant contribution to my own health and the health of my clients. I find that for most people I treat, they tend to embrace it slowly and as they start feeling the benefits over time and recognizing the benefits to their bodies and spirits, they embrace the movements more and then become interested in living a healthier lifestyle in general.

This course has been for me a true life and game-changer
David's Qi Gong course was the best I've personally ever had. I feel I have much greater respect for the practice of Qi Gong as well as for my own abilities as a Qi Gong and Traditional Chinese Medical Practitioner. As I open myself and become more receptive to assistance I can honestly say it's amazing the profound effect that deciding to let go of control and resistance to change can have on one's life. I will definitely be doing more courses in the future and have already incorporated Qi Gong with each of my patients. This course has been for me a true life and game-changer. Thank you!

After taking the course I feel empowered knowing I have something valuable to share…
Tanya's Distance Acupuncture course came at a perfect time. With the current state of things a good number of patients have temporarily discontinued treatment. Though they've all communicated they miss their acupuncture greatly and can't wait to get back, they're unsure of when they'll feel safe enough to return. Their health concerns still need assistance and their stress levels have increased due to isolation and fear.
After taking the course I feel empowered knowing I have something valuable to share with them. I also now feel confident in applying my intuitive skills from afar and provide those patients a distant acupuncture experience I feel resembles an in-office treatment (with the added bonus of not having the usual abrupt shift back to reality when having to drive back to work or home). I switched over to using an extremely gentle needling technique myself as you shared for the last few years and my patients absolutely love it (they barely feel anything plus still the same great results).
I did also just take the Medical Qigong Intensive: The Ultimate Mind Body Medicine which I feel prepared me well for this class. I will definitely be taking more classes with Tanya and David - I am grateful for their positive impact on my and my patients' lives. Thank you!

My moderate-level back pain-with-movement improved to mild after practicing the first six exercises…
David is a phenomenal Medical Qigong instructor! His style is uplifting and invigorating. My moderate-level back pain-with-movement improved to mild after practicing the first six exercises along with the video. The instruction throughout this offering about the emotional and spiritual origins of pain and Medical Qigong remedies provided a fulfilling series for me and my healing work with clients. Thank you!

A phenomenal course on every level…
A phenomenal course (The Ultimate Mind Body Medicine Online Course) on every level... David embodies by example his teachings, mirroring for each participant not only the dance of balance between Mind, Body, Emotions and Spirit, but also the importance of living with intention and humility. I have attended several of David's courses, and each has benefited my life and path of service tremendously. For those truly dedicated to bringing heaven onto earth, within themselves and their lives, relationships, communities and beyond, I highly recommend David, Tanya and their work! So many blessings to all!
