The Qigong academy has a large collection of instruction videos and classes. The guiding thread runs evenly through the method of Yijin Jing Qigong. This means that various sections are interconnected and supporting each other, resulting in a deep understanding of the practice. You will be guided through the Qigong basics and as you progress with your development you will learn the more advanced techniques. My goal is to help you build a great Qigong and Taijiquan foundation, hone your basic skills and prepare you for the deeper aspects of practice.

The Water Dragon Arts online academy is guiding you step by step through the various stages of development. First we will stretch the body and release all chronic tension. Then you will learn the basics of Qigong and many fundamental exercises. There are a few different Qigong sets per stage, but not all of them have to be practiced at the same time. The guiding thread through this academy is Yijin Jing Qigong, but there is also the Taijiquan branch that you can try out.
Through The 8 Pieces of Brocade and other fundamental Qigong exercises you will gain strength, flexibility and increase your level of health and well-being.
Through traditional Yijin Jing Qigong, you will regain your vitality and youthful robustness while building a strong foundation for further cultivation practices. We will practice the Yang side, e.g. the movement sequences and positions, and the Yin side, which is related to inner cultivation practices. (Neigong basics) This program is structured in a way that teaches you the necessary background knowledge to understand the method in a profound way and practice safely.
Marco, your Water Dragon Arts Online Academy opened another door for me! I very much hope that I can enter myself with the necessary perseverance and stick with it! I really appreciate your carefully designed lessons. Methodically / dactically coherent and structured, you set me up to participate, browse and acquire theoretical knowledge. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experiences! Greetings

Having explored various qigong practices on Youtube, I knew something wasn't clicking. Fortunately, I stumbled onto the online academy of Water Dragon Arts. The curriculum Marco has set up grounds you in the fundamentals, giving you the details and insights to actually experience your body transforming through the practice! There is so much material to explore, and it is arranged to help you progress sensibly and at your own pace. Most importantly, Marco is a phenomenal teacher who consistently anticipates and corrects a problem at the exact moment my posture is drifting out of alignment: it really does make it feel like an in person tutorial (and he's available via email if extra help is needed, too). All in all, I highly recommend it!
