White Crane
Nei Kung Meditation Level #4
"The Godly Crane
Dots the Water"
Saturday, August 22, 2026
11:30am - 2pm
Please note that this seminar is open exclusively to current Shaolin students. Because of this special training opportunity, all regular Tai Chi, brown belt, and lower‑level classes will be canceled for the day.
This is the fourth class of our five‑class White Crane Nei Kung Meditation series. This session is known as “The Godly Crane Dots the Water.” Prepare to elevate your meditation and Chi Kung practice. This class introduces 10 powerful postures that sharpen focus, deepen concentration, and help clear the body of illness and injury. As you learn to move energy more effectively, you’ll gain insight into how internal strength supports healing—and how this directly enhances your Tai Chi, Pa Kua, and Hsing‑I training.
