Buqi Training with Shen Jin 2026-2028
Buqi Training with Shen Jin 2026-2028
The Buqi Training offers a rare opportunity to study this unique energy healing system in the UK. Buqi techniques refine the healer’s vital energy, or Qi, for treatment and diagnosis. This system was developed by Dr Shen Hongxun, a doctor of both Western and Chinese medicine, and a Tai Chi Grandmaster, who brought Buqi to the West to benefit all.
His daughter, Master Shen Jin, studied with her father from a young age and taught beside him for many years. Since Dr Shen passed away in 2011, Shen Jin has been leading the international school, teaching courses and professional training in several countries.
Course Content
During the 2.5-year training, you will learn:
• How to create an energy ‘field’ in which to treat your patient
• The Buqi theory of the underlying causes of disease and how to treat them
• Understanding the basic energy of ill health (Binqi) and how it can be cleared, first from yourself and then others
• Exercises to strengthen your energy, improve posture and clear old emotions and stresses; which you can later adapt for your patients
• Buqi diagnosis using postural assessment and energy sensing techniques
• Treatment techniques for different health conditions
• At the Clinical Training you will get to apply all this to patients
The training will include both theory and practical, experiential learning.

Professional qualification
Completion of the first module, the Buqi Foundation, will give you the tools and knowledge to treat friends and family if you wish. It will also give depth and understanding if you are a Taijiwuxigong practitioner and will be of great interest to anyone who is a healer or therapist or works with energy.
Completion of Part 1 will mean that those who are already Taijiwuxigong teachers at Diploma level will be able to get the full Teaching Certificate.
Those who complete the entire training, then pass the exam and submit case studies, and fulfill all elements to the required standard, will qualify for the Buqi Certificate, and will be able to practise as a Buqi Therapist.
Course Structure 2026-2028
The course is divided into 2 parts. Anyone is welcome to attend just the Foundation, or any of the Daoyin weekends, as stand-alone courses. However, please note that if you wish to obtain professional qualifications, either as a teacher or therapist (see above) you will need to complete all the relevant parts of the course.
Hilary Thompson will assist Shen Jin in teaching some parts of the course. Hilary was fortunate to spend time living with the Shen family and has been an assistant, as well as teaching and offering treatments, for over 20 years.
Part 1 - The Foundation, Daoyin and Diagnosis
This includes the Buqi Foundation, which gives an introduction to Buqi theory and basic treatment techniques that can be used with friends and family. The Daoyin courses develop the ability to use different forms of movement and energy forces, including sound vibration, for self-healing, to use with patients and for Taijiwuxigong teachers to pass on to their students. Diagnosis includes the Buqi diagnostic techniques.
