Summer Seminars on Tai Chi and Medical Qigong – YFH, USA

In the summer of 2025, a series of specialized seminars took place at the mountain retreat of Yang’s Family Heights (YFH) with the presence of Dr. Yang. These seminars featured advanced training in Tai Chi Chuan, Tai Chi Sword, Push Hands (Tuishou), and Fighting Set forms.

The final segment focused primarily on Medical Qigong and the Grand Circulation of Energy (Da Mai). Although the groups were smaller in size, participants demonstrated high enthusiasm and commitment.

All classes were held at full capacity, and the combination of a serene retreat environment alongside the mountain nature created an ideal setting for focused learning and growth. Meals were provided by a professional chef, emphasizing healthful and nourishing cuisine.

Dr. Yang has announced that summer 2026 may mark the final occurrence of these seminars at YFH.

Angles of Benefit: The Dynamic Equilibrium Between Peak and Recovery

Being constantly at your peak—physically or mentally—may, at first glance, seem like a sign of health. But on closer examination, we find that a “100% maximum” state sustained over time allows no room for flexibility or breathing space in the body and mind’s intricate systems.

Neijing Tu: The “Inner Landscape” Diagram

Neijing Tu (內經圖) is closely connected with Chinese medicine. This work is considered a classic in Taoist internal alchemy practice. Using landscape painting metaphorically, it depicts the functions of human organs, the roles of various body parts, and the emotional stages throughout the practice. The diagram uses imagery to point to the dual cultivation of essence (jing) and life (sheng), revealing their true meaning in the unity of heaven and humanity. It has been praised by later generations as the "first image of Chinese health preservation." As a classic, the time of its creation has always been a subject of debate.
