An Invitation from Master Bruce Frantzis
When I was a young man traveling throughout Asia, I studied martial arts full-time, every day. My sole focus was on developing power.
Then in the 1980s, I experienced a traumatic car accident that literally broke my body, and the importance of health and healing became crystal clear.
When my teachers—most especially Daoist Sage Liu Hung Chieh—led me into places within my mind that I never dreamed existed, they opened me up to the ultimate potential of spirit and consciousness.
Whether training is for health, power, healing, smooth emotions, peace of mind, clarity, or any combination of these and more, they are all manifestations of how much energy you have and how well it flows through you. Daoists have perfected both the science and the art of cultivating energy or “Qi” for millennia.
Growing and using your qi is a skill that anyone can learn.
Regardless of your reasons for being drawn to tai chi, other internal arts, qigong, yoga, or meditation, the benefits you can experience are entirely based upon the quality of your practice. The quality of your practice is governed by the depth and effectiveness of the material you train.
Having an adept teacher to guide you through the process is essential to understanding what is possible and how to achieve it. I diligently searched worldwide for the best teachers I could find because I wanted the most in-depth, comprehensive, and pure instruction possible.
I was incredibly fortunate that I was able to seek out and learn from some of the most brilliant masters of the modern era. My primary teacher, Grandmaster Liu, passed down to me the teachings of the Daoist Sage Laozi (Lao Tzu), which come from a rare and authentic lineage, known as the Water Tradition, transmitted in an unbroken chain from teacher to student for millennia.
It has been my life’s mission to share the precious and potentially life-shifting ancient knowledge that I received in the East here in the West.
Energy Arts Live allows you to take part in weekly regular classes from the comfort of your own home. You can live-stream classes online or download classes as they fit your flow.
I warmly invite you to study these life changing arts with me and my Senior Instructors, joining fellow students from all across the globe.
Everything furthers,
Bruce Frantzis

Weekly Classes
Daoist Meditation & Inner Dissolving
The Water Tradition of Lao Tzu is a specific branch of meditation that trains practitioners in practical, straightforward methods to delve deeply inside themselves, cope with stress, and flow smoothly through challenging moments and changing times.
You will learn techniques such as the Inner Dissolving Method to release internal blockages with the aim of enhancing clarity and well being in body, mind, and spirit.
The path of Daoist Meditation is learning to deeply relax and let go at all layers of your being. From a Daoist perspective, when you release all that is false or conditioned, whatever remains is your true essence.
San Ti Standing Neigong
San Ti Standing – Known as the “King of Postures,” Santi is a powerful core practice of the internal martial art of Hsing-I and one of the best ways of cultivating yang qi and the ability to follow through and focus. These lessons are also highly relevant for qigong practitioners and other internal movement systems.
Daoist Master Class
This is a first! Since Bruce favors a spontaneous Zhuangzi style and approach to teaching, this class will be a space for Bruce to share whatever he feels is best in the moment from the perspective of a Daoist master. This will be a lively and dynamic space for him to creatively share teaching from his expansive reservoir of knowledge and over half a century of experience in Daoist internal arts.
2nd & 3rd Swings of Energy Gates Qigong
The swings are an incredible way to open the qi in the lower, middle, and upper body. This is a great opportunity to build a foundation in the 2nd and 3rd swings and explore the elements that truly bring them to life in your practice. Led by Senior Instructor Craig Barnes.
Unifying the Body & Limbs in Energy Gates
Senior Instructor Kurt Miyajima will guide you in uniting the body and qi into a connected, coherent whole. This practice helps alleviate the fragmentation that modern stressful living can cause, and creates the foundation for an integrated body and mind. An introduction of the outer dissolving practice to release blockages and open the body’s energy will also be a part of this course.
Daoist Meditation Presence Practices
Developing ease with becoming fully present and aware, while also honing the quality of being completely comfortable with having your awareness inside of your body and mind, are key elements of meditation. Joining us from the UK, long-time EA Instructor Jane Launchbury will be sharing her decades of experience in meditation to aid students in stabilizing and deepening their presence in practice and life.
Tai Chi for Knee Health
Painful knee issues are everywhere in modern society. A specialty of Wu Style Tai Chi is working with the joints to enhance function and alleviate pain. Classes instructed by Chris Cinnamon author of “Tai Chi for Knee Health” and the founder and head instructor of Chicago Tai Chi.
After a long career of high level external martial arts and athleticism, Chris used Wu Tai Chi to rehabilitate his knee health, and has helped thousands of others do the same. Whether you have knee pain, or know someone who does, this will be a valuable addition to your knowledge base.
Daoist Breathing
Softening, opening, and energizing your breath is one of the most impactful things you can learn within Daoist practices. EA Instructor Katie will lead students in using this most fundamental to life practice to enhance their wellbeing, health, and energetic practice.
Guided Practice Sessions
Regular practice is the cornerstone of realizing the full benefits of Daoist Energy Arts.
You’ll have the opportunity to review and train the material presented in instructional classes led by Master Frantzis and his Senior Instructors and follow along with guided practices led by knowledgeable Certified Energy Arts Instructors as an integral part of the Energy Arts Live program.
In addition to guided practices that support this session’s lessons, Dragon & Tiger Qigong and Heaven & Earth Qigong forms will be led by student instructors at our Energy Arts Training Center in Longmont, CO.

Join a genuine Master’s school…
Energy Arts Live allows you to join us in the training hall here in Colorado from wherever you are.
Whether you are a new or dedicated student, connecting with experienced teachers from a genuine lineage can make all the difference in how much you get back from your practice.
Fluent in Chinese and Japanese, Master Bruce Frantzis spent 16 years of full-time study in China, Japan, India, Taiwan, and throughout Asia learning directly from some of the most skillful masters on the planet in their native language.
He was the first American to become certified to teach tai chi outside of China by the Beijing Physical Culture Association. He later became one of the only recognized Western lineage masters in the world, authoring 15 books on Taoist energy arts and meditation.
You will learn directly from Master Frantzis and his Senior Instructors, each with decades of teaching and practice experience. This level of study is rarely available outside of China. Even if you made the trip, it would be next to impossible to find a skilled teacher willing to share many of the deeper techniques that give internal arts their power to heal and make you vital and alive.
Energy Arts Live broadcasts inner-door teachings to a worldwide community. You will have opportunities to ask questions via the chat feature or live audio to refine and improve what you know, and advance along your path.
“Truly being healthy—energetic fitness—is not about how you look; it’s about how you feel. It’s about making your body, mind and spirit work together as a team”
– Master Bruce Frantzis
