Medical Qigong and Bioenergy practice rooted in nearly a decade of teaching — guiding students in New York and around the world back to the quiet, capable intelligence already inside them.
"My healing journey began in early childhood, after waking from a 21-day coma. That awakening shaped everything that came after."
Drawn first to martial arts, then to Reiki — where he became a Master — Erdan later studied with Zdenko Domančić, the world-renowned Bioenergy healer. In 2015, he found what he describes as the missing link: Zhineng Qigong, studied directly under Master Liu Jianshe in New York and China — a lineage that traces to Grand Master Pang Ming, MD, founder of the world's first medicine-less hospital.
Since 2017, Erdan has led 1,500+ classes and workshops — at Harlem Hospital, Woodhull Hospital, Bensonhurst Nursing Home, Vista on 5th Nursing Home, in ongoing classes at Rudolf Steiner Auditorium, at Memorial Park and yoga studios in Jacksonville and abroad, and online with students around the world. He meets people where they are: in pain, in transition, in search of something quieter.
A training based on the holism of life — a methodology to rediscover the inner medicine, the vital and healing resource within us, through posture, movement, breath, and conscious mental focus.

Qigong is not only for those seeking quiet — it is also a serious performance practice. Focus, recovery, breath, presence under pressure. These skills translate.
Qigong builds the foundation that elite athletes rely on: deep breath capacity, faster recovery, mental focus under pressure, and a calm nervous system between the moments of effort. The work complements any sport — from martial arts to endurance to team play.
Individual coaching available for athletes preparing for competition, returning from injury, or seeking an edge that goes beyond the physical.
Get in touch →Corporate sessions designed for teams under pressure — bringing employees back to clarity, presence, and sustainable energy. Sessions can be delivered on-site or remotely, for individuals or full teams, as one-time workshops or ongoing weekly practice.

The questions people ask most before their first class.
Qi (pronounced chee) is the vital energy that animates all life. It flows through everything in nature, including your body. When qi moves freely, you feel balanced and alive; when it is blocked or depleted, you feel it too. Qigong is the practice of sensing, gathering, and guiding that energy.
It’s pronounced chee-gong. Qi means vital life energy; gong means skill or cultivation. Together, qigong is the practice of cultivating and balancing your life energy through gentle movement, breath, and focused intention. The form I teach, Zhineng Qigong, was developed by Grand Master Pang Ming. Zhineng means wisdom or intelligence: the body’s own innate intelligence to restore itself.
Qigong’s roots reach back to ancient Chinese shamanism; as French sinologist Catherine Despeux notes, these exercises grew out of early shamanic techniques. A Neolithic pottery vessel over 5,000 years old, from the Majiayao culture and unearthed in 1975, shows a figure in a qigong-like posture, likely used by priest-shamans to enter trance states. Later, exercises called daoyin (“guiding and stretching”) appear on a silk painting from around 168 BCE. Over the centuries, Daoist and Buddhist meditation, the martial arts, and Traditional Chinese Medicine each refined these practices. In the 1950s they were united under one name, qigong, and since the 1980s it has spread worldwide.
Zhineng means “wisdom” or “intelligence”: the innate intelligence of life to heal and renew itself. Zhineng Qigong was created by Dr. Pang Ming, a physician trained in both Western and Chinese medicine, who studied under 19 different qigong grandmasters. In 1980 he began teaching a new, open method that combined their wisdom with a modern, scientific approach, so anyone could learn it. He later founded the Huaxia Zhineng Qigong Center in China, known as the “medicine-less hospital,” which hundreds of thousands of people visited to practice. I studied this lineage directly with Master Liu Jianshe, in New York and in China.
It grew from ancient Chinese traditions, including Traditional Chinese Medicine and Daoist philosophy, but you don’t need to believe anything to practice it. Zhineng Qigong is non-religious and open to everyone. It shares roots with the martial arts, but its purpose is health, calm, and vitality, not combat. Think of it as a mind-body practice for the whole person.
Absolutely. Qigong meets you where you are. The movements are slow and simple, and every one can be done standing, seated in a chair, or even lying down. I’ve taught in hospitals and nursing homes, with students using chairs and walkers. There is no stretching, jumping, or choreography to memorize.
Most people feel deeply relaxed and quietly energized at the same time. You may notice warmth, a tingling in your hands, or a soft, magnetic feeling between your palms as you move. The mind settles. At the end of each class, we rest together in the qifield, the part many students say they look forward to most.
Yoga often centers on holding postures and stretching, and Tai Chi is a long, flowing sequence with martial-arts origins. Qigong uses simple, repeated movements paired with breath and intention, so you can begin to benefit from your very first class instead of spending months learning a form. Many people practice it alongside yoga or Tai Chi; they complement each other beautifully.
Many people feel calmer and lighter after a single class. With regular practice, even a few minutes a day, students often report better sleep, steadier balance, and more energy over the following weeks. Everyone’s path is different; consistency matters more than intensity.
Nothing at all. Wear comfortable, loose clothing and find a quiet spot where you can stand or sit. For online classes, all you need is Zoom on a phone, tablet, or computer. No experience is necessary, and your first class is free.
A monthly program of guided meditation and remote healing — 30 minutes each night for seven consecutive nights, beginning on a Monday at the start of every month (next series: ). Below are the questions most often asked before joining.

A guided "Pure Consciousness and Primordial Frequency" healing meditation, held for seven consecutive nights — 30 minutes each evening. Together, the seven sessions allow body, mind, and spirit to awaken and let lasting change take root. Healing can happen suddenly, but more often it unfolds in layers, over time.
I guide you into a deep meditative state. As you relax, you begin to awaken and connect with your spirit at its deepest level. Underneath the spoken guidance, I am in meditation, generating primordial frequencies through the qifield. The work goes beyond hypnotherapy or any induced psychological technique — once you are reflecting from pure consciousness, the potential is limitless.
We connect over the internet for the meditation, but the internet is not what carries the healing. The healing moves through the qifield — through what is sometimes called Oneness, the Field, or pure consciousness (Yiyuanti). In that state, your spirit reflects exactly what is best for you at this moment.
Anyone interested in healing — body, mind, or soul. The work meets you where you are.
Turn off your phone if you can, find a quiet space, and meditate briefly on your own before we begin — these help, but none of them is required. Background noise will not block the healing. Bring only the intention to receive, and leave expectations aside.
No. Close your eyes, lie down, move away from the screen if you wish. You do not need to see me to receive the healing. Allow yourself to be guided inward — and if your mind wanders, gently return to your heart center or your breath.
You will still receive the healing. The words I speak are not what generates it — the connection through the Field is uninterrupted. If we get disconnected, simply continue to rest in the meditation.
Everyone experiences it differently. Many feel deeply peaceful, relaxed, sleepy. Some fall asleep — that is fine, as the thinking mind steps aside. Some feel a release of pain. Some, particularly at the beginning, feel mild discomfort as qi begins to move through the body. There is no right experience.
No. The less you think about the area in need, the more open to the healing you become. Trust that the work is reaching exactly where it is needed.
This can happen as part of a detoxification process — qi, the life-force, begins moving through the body and may cause initial discomfort. It typically passes. Drinking plenty of water and taking a warm Epsom salt bath after the session helps the body release what is being moved.
Not really — everyone carries the same potential. When I was seven years old I was in a coma for 21 days, and that experience allowed me to connect with pure consciousness and infinite intelligence more easily, at the deepest levels. The capacity itself is human; it lives in all of us.
