Our Practitioners

Josh is a life-long learner. For the past 15 years he has explored many different types of meditation modalities ranging from transcendental meditation and mantra meditation to mindfulness and breathwork. But it was in Qi Gong that he found a practice that enriched his life so much that he wanted to share its benefits with everyone around him. At its foundation, Qi Gong helps transform stress into vitality leaving us with less stress and more energy. Through a combination of breathwork, tapping, warm-ups, stretches, flows, postures, and meditation, a student can return to a place of calm while simultaneously feeling energized. Josh received his Qi Gong certifications and training from Masters Lee Holden and Robert Peng. In addition, Josh is a certified professional coach, and is trained in the 3 Principles by Michael Neill. He enjoys helping people reignite the power within themselves to return to an aligned, peaceful state that feels like home. While living in NYC, Josh was one of the hosts of Awakin New York where he hosted meditation gatherings once a month, free for anyone to join. It included an hour-long silent meditation, reading of the week, circle of sharing, and a light meal among new friends. Josh always appreciated the opportunity to hold space for the circle, listen to stories, and witness the power of community. He also co-hosted Awakin retreats where he created workshop activities and taught Qi Gong movements and practices.

Additionally, Josh has worked in the creative arts as a video editor and podcaster. He loves hearing people’s stories while listening for common threads and insights weaved into the tapestry of the human experience. For Josh, each Qi Gong routine is in and of itself a story, a new story being told in real time in the present moment, where we get to experience ourselves as we are, and that alone is deeply healing.
