The KUNLUN® System Level 1 Workshop consists of once secret Alchemical practices of profound mystical transformation from ancient Taoist traditions in China. The System reveals the "hidden root," giving one the key to unlock awakening within oneself. Through meditative and breathing techniques, The KUNLUN System facilitates the complete opening of the energy body, including the chakras, energy meridians, and three specific energy storage areas called dantiens. Until recently, these powerful practices were known to just a few in monasteries and temples.

Some of the powerful techniques and practices you will learn are:
**The KUNLUN Method:  Practicing Kunlun Method regularly will purify the entire body as the seventy-two thousand nerves called nadir, are toned and cleared by the psychic heat generated. The end result is that the nerves can handle much stronger magnetic potentials, which is very important because the further you go with this practice, the stronger the internal current becomes. The over-abundance of energy generated by the KUNLUN Method will also tremendously enhance many other yogic or healing practices.
**Red Phoenix One: This is one of the most Ancient Teachings of the Maoshan branch that was once only taught to the head instructor in the monasteries and temples. This practice awakens long dormant abilities in the brain and activates the 'Crystal Palace' or 'Secret Square Inch'. This is a 'zero-point' energy field that is multidimensional in nature. Red Phoenix is a practice of rapid re-enlightenment, awakening ones dormant spiritual potential quickly, safely, and without effort.
**The Golden Flower Method:  This Method awakens and purifies the three energy centers called dantiens to refine the qualities of the body, mind, and spirit alchemically.
**I-Jong & 5 Elements: The standing postures of this practice strengthen the organs and balance the emotions. 5 Elements is the physical building block towards spiritual freedom.
**One breath: This basic technique of breathing results in the balancing of the body, mind, and spirit bringing calmness to the active mind.
Other techniques taught are nuur practice and laughter chi gung
