Testimonials
I want to thank you again for the Qigong workshop instruction that I was recently a part of. The weekend after the workshop I had a client that came in who recently had back surgery and was feeling numbness in his legs. I prepped myself prior to his visit with the Nourishing Qi Method for 30 minutes. As I employed the tuina techniques on him I kept repeating the mantra of “Clear the inflammation, Stop the pain, Return to normal.” After an hour he got off my table and said his sciatica pain had completely disappeared. I always have good intentions (yinian) when I work on a client but I found myself even more focused after feeling, receiving and giving the beautiful energy that was shared during our workshop..

When Liping inserted her first needle at one of my feet, I literally felt my body opening like a flower and the session released something very deep and left me profoundly relaxed and rejuvenated.

Liping’s life embodies her teachings: rooted in Taoism and Buddhism and built on study and practice, she is one of those rare people whose very presence reminds you that there is another reality – a spiritual reality – behind the everyday world and her teachings give you access to it. Liping is a healer: in her teaching of qigong and Swimming Dragon Taiyi; in her accupuncture and herb practice; in the example of her way of being present in her life and her generosity. She’s the real thing.

I have been practicing chen and yang style tai chi for over 30 years. After recently meeting Liping Zhu and watching her do swimming dragon tai chi, I was so moved and impressed that I decided to learn this form as well. Her grace, fluidity, precision, balance, and strength are remarkable. This combined with her intelligence, warmth, charisma, and great sense of humor makes my next journey into the wonderful world of tai chi very exciting indeed.

Liping is a gifted healer. Whether through acupuncture,
Qigong, Taichi, or specialized massage, she works at a
very deep and individualized level. She has been a true
blessing to me.

Swimming Dragon is meditation in motion and has strengthened my body while soothing my mind and spirit. Most of all it is a nourishing family and community that I am honored to be a part of. Liping is incredible — gentle and knowledgeable teacher.

Liping brings skill, knowledge and compassion to her teaching and healing work. She has a wonderful spirit that permeates everything she does. Her approach to overall health is one of encouragement and optimism, which has been essential for me whenever I have faced an illness. Liping is the same in her classes, workshops or private practice, an advocate for each person she encounters. Her help has been life changing.

If you believe that the Body, Mind and Spirit are one, and that the Spirit manifests and is expressed in our movement, then I highly recommend to study with Liping Zhu. Her movement is exquisite and gives us all something very beautiful and special to strive for.
