Nick Loffree: Courses & Retreats

Yes! The course is set up so that you can simply skip the lessons that are about teaching and business skills. About 80% of the course is just about learning/practicing Qigong, so you will get a lot out of it for just yourself.

The live classes are usually about 3 hours and feature a full length practice, meditation, lesson, and Q & A session. The first class will be on June 1, and the last class will be August 17, 2024. Classes are held will on weekends. See section below for exact times.

All good! We always post replays of the Live Classes which you can watch on your own time. You can even submit questions for the Live Q & A's by email, and Nick will answer them in class. You have lifetime access to all the class replays.

Yes! You have lifetime access to the course content and class replays. If you want to be certified, you have up to one year from the end date of the program to complete the requirements (write the exam, complete the form-checks, log 50 hours practice).

Yes, there are several! Scroll down to see pricing options. We strive to make it affordable, but if you are in serious financial hardship, shoot us an email with your story to apply for one of our scholarship opportunities. We offer a limited number of discounted scholarships, as well as one full free scholarship, each time we run the course. Let us know which you are applying for and why, and we are happy to consider you.

There are currently no government regulations on teaching Qigong in the US. Residents of others countries should check local laws, but we have come across very few issues with this among graduates. We do provide our own "Nick Loffree Qigong Level 1 Instructor" certificate, which you can provide to Studios or Gyms alongside your resume, or to private liability insurance companies. We have found Namasta.com to be helpful in North America. If you are already insured for Yoga, Massage, Acupuncture, etc, you can contact your insurer to add Qigong as a modality.

We won't be offering refunds for this course, but we are happy to provide a full credit towards a future online program if requested by Week 3 of the program.

The course can be self paced, or you can go through it in the 12 weeks with the group. To get through the course in 12 weeks, you would invest about 7-8 hours per week. This includes 3-4 hours for the live class or replay, 1-2 hours to watch the weekly lecture and form instruction videos, and 1-3 hours of personal practice using the provided videos. Many people choose to take the full year to get through the course. Doing it this way, you could invest as little as an hour per week, or 10 minutes per day.

Yes! In the Pricing Options below you can choose the "QTT + 1-1s with Nick" option. With the other options, you still get the Live group Q & A sessions with Nick, but your 1-1s to check your forms are done with one of our Certified Form Coaches.
