The T.R.A.N.C.E Method
Just as plants grow, heal, and strengthen by attuning to the cycles of sunlight, water, and soil, our bodies can experience vitality and peak performance by harmonizing with the natural energies and forces around us. In Qigong, we align with the flow of Qi—life force energy—similar to how plants absorb nutrients and transform light into growth. By moving with attention and natural cycles, we cultivate resilience and inner strength, tapping into the vital rhythms that nourish body, mind and spirit. . This attunement of connecting deeply with the flow of Qi allows our bodies to heal, rejuvenate, and thrive in balance with the world around us.
Why trance?
Since ancient times, indigenous cultures have recognized trance states as a powerful means of connecting with the natural world and the deeper layers of human consciousness. Through ritual practices in Bon Shamanism, tibetan cultures have entered altered states that allow the mind and body to align with the natural flow of energy present in the environment. In these states, practitioners often experience heightened awareness, spiritual visions, and a sense of unity with the earth and cosmos. This alignment fosters healing, strengthens the body, and restores harmony between the individual and the world around them, helping to maintain physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. As practices of qigong are passed down through generations, they continue to reflect a deep understanding of the interconnectedness of all life and the importance of maintaining balance with nature’s rhythms.

This course is broken into 12 weeks. Each week will have specific principles. The sequence will be as follows:
Tune
Just like when tuning a radio dial, our body will tune into certain frequencies. Sometimes we fall asleep at the dial and tune into dissonant frequencies. This frequency becomes our personal reality and because this frequency is different from what we are used to, we begin experiencing symptoms of pain and tension. If this tension and pain goes unresolved, we eventually identify with this way of being along with the specific body aches and pains that come with it which holds us back in an unconscious cycle of suffering.
How would it feel to break free of what’s holding you back?
