The Taiyi Bagua Hunyuan Yangsheng Gong was developed by our Grandmaster Lu Zijian (1893-2012) who lived almost 120 years. He attributed his longevity to the daily practice of this particular Qigong method which he developed by integrating the essence of Daoist cultivation practices that he studied throughout his life from the Wudang and Bagua Schools of Daoism/martial arts. There are two parts to the practice of Taiyi Gong which includes the Internal Alchemy (Qing, Qi, Shen Transformation) and the Specific Yangsheng routine.
