Ren Yuan
A REN XUE Africa Introduction Workshop
Join us for
A beginners introduction to Ren Yuan, the third method of the well-established, globally recognised and esteemed Qigong system, Yuan Qigong
Cape Town
Saturday 7th December 2026
Ren Yuan (Method 3)
The Third Method in the First Stage of Yuan Qigong’s nine methods, the External Transformation Stage, which focuses on transforming and uplifting Qi and the body and training unification of the body and consciousness.
Ren Yuan works on Qi at a deeper level than the first two methods and trains the integration and unification of the body, Qi, consciousness, and Shen (spirit). It includes an ancient, almost forgotten, secret, and powerful internal Qigong method, called Xin Fa.
It works mainly on the physical level to strengthen all the structural and connective tissues, including bones, skin, ligaments, tendons, fascia, organs, marrow, as well as the cellular structural components (including the nuclei and DNA). It does this through opening and clearing all the Qi channels (main channels and branch channels), down to the tiniest, and thereby works to prevent illness and improve overall health. It also delivers a deep state of calm and develops the ability to maintain physical, mental and emotional stability and balance.

Please Read Through Our Cancellation Policy
“CANCELLATION AND REFUND POLICY
It is our intention to accommodate the reality that things can change unexpectedly. However, there are costs associated with booking a venue and catering, plus administrative costs, which put us at risk should you cancel. Our policy, therefore, attempts to be fair to all involved:
If you need to cancel your workshop registration, please do so early. Late cancellations may make it difficult for someone else to have the opportunity to attend. Once you have paid any portion of the workshop fee, administrative and cancellation fees will apply, depending on the cancellation date.
If you cancel your booking:
- 30 days before the workshop date, we will refund all fees paid minus an applicable administrative charge of R70.
- Less than 30 – 8days before the workshop, we will refund all fees paid minus R400 per person cancellation fee.
- Less than 7 days before the workshop – no refund possible because catering would have been ordered, venue fee paid, and materials printed. The exception is for a qualified medical emergency.
Refunds will be paid within 30 days of receiving a written cancellation notice.
PLEASE NOTE THAT:
Anyone leaving the workshop early for anything other than a qualified emergency (medical emergency or a death in the family) will not receive any refund.
If someone leaves early due to a qualified emergency (medical emergency or a death in the family), we will refund 60% of the workshop fee.
REN XUE Africa reserves the right at any time to require that a participant leave the workshop if a participant’s behavior is considered to be either excessively disruptive or dangerous to self or others. In this case, all workshop fees are non-refundable.
