Qigong & Neigong
Energy (qi) cultivation is the practice of meditative movements with abdominal breathing techniques to charge the body’s life-force for stress reduction, alleviation of chronic diseases, and increased vitality.
Internal Martial Arts
Internal Martial Arts focus on stillness in motion, natural movements, deep relaxation, and mind-body connection to gain physical and inner strength powered by the body’s energy center or “Dantian” in Daoist tradition.
Body Alignment & Fascia Stretching
The eastern tradition views the physical body as a holistic unit and developed a set of practices that work directly with the body’s musculoskeletal system to improve structural alignment, energy circulation, and efficiency of movements.
To reach a deeper level of the mind-body connection and to access the higher level of consciousness, the human body must live in harmony with the Tao. The Tao can be interpreted as the true nature of the universe, which is reflected by the dynamic energetic interaction between the states of contraction and expansion of the universe at its point of origin.

Our students’ real experience with learning Chi Body Method online!
Shifu Mark Li's Chi Body Method gives a very practical and down to earth approach to the more uncommon, mysticized, or "secret" teachings of the internal martial arts. He starts you from the ground up for your internal development, a development which is at the core of all internal arts. The best part of these teachings is that they are applicable to all walks of life and to whatever stage you are at with your personal training. Whether you are an office worker looking for more energy and wanting to get into better touch with your body, or you are an experienced fighter that wants to improve upon body mechanics and power development, there will be something in the class that will help you improve upon yourself.
I started attending Chi Body recently. I was concerned before joining. I wondered how much I would be able to learn online, but am so happy with the class. Shifu Mark Li is a Master Teacher. He is extremely knowledgeable and methodical. He explains the concepts and demonstrates every move with precision and patience. I also like that any classes that can’t be attended live can be viewed and reviewed as many times as you need. You can play them 24/7 on a students only private Facebook page.
I can’t say enough about Sifu Mark Li’s classes. He is a generous, meticulous teacher sharing authentic internal Gong Fu. His instruction is clear, thoughtful, and always encouraging, he gives you plenty to work on. Engaging and fun for newbies, yes, but more experienced practitioners will also find a lot of valuable content.
I have been studying different types of martial arts since I was a teenager. I am now 58 years old and have been studying internal martial arts with Shifu Mark Li for the last four years. I originally started training privately with his dad, Grandmaster Li Tai Liang. Since I met Shifu Li, he has shown me that he truly has a deep understanding of the internal martial arts. I feel that Shifu Li has really helped me to understand the complex layers of internal development. He is teaching authentic material that is not easily accessible. I highly recommend Shifu Mark Li.
Dr. Mark Li is an educator by profession, and he is excellent at teaching this rare family internal arts via the online format. He shows the material from all angles. He explains some of the deeper lessons shared by his father, Grandmaster Li Tai Liang, in the live online sessions, so students get the full benefit of this priceless teachings and lineage. Students are able to ask any question during class, and they are closely watched by both generations of internal martial arts masters, with corrections and adjustments in real time on Zoom. I highly recommend you join Dr. Mark Li and his wonderful system Chi Body Method. There is no reason not to, as the first class is free and the benefits are priceless.
I have practiced this system for a number of years and attest to the benefits of its unique training methods. In addition to improving body awareness and breath control, this system will also improve your mobility, striking power and physical resilience. Shifu Mark Li is an excellent instructor and provides clear and easy to understand explanations of somewhat esoteric concepts. He has a good eye for movement and is able to effectively give feedback in the online sessions that will help beginners and longtime practitioners such as myself.
Real internal power is a tangible substance that manifests itself in the physical body, not in the imagination, through the correct training methods.
