About Daoyin Yangsheng Gong
Daoyin Yangsheng Gong, created by Professor Zhang Guangde of Beijing Sports University, was awarded China’s National Sports Science and Technology Progress Prize in 1992. The qigong exercises are designed based on Chinese as well as Western medical theories to target specific body systems to achieve preventive, curative, and recuperative effects on particular diseases. Clinical tests done in China found that overall effective rate among practitioners was 95%, among which 74% had remarkable effect. Beneficiaries call this the “Life Saving Qigong”.
There are now around 4 million practitioners in more than 60 countries. At Beijing Sports University, it is compulsory for students, many of whom are healthy and young athletes, to learn Daoyin Yangsheng Gong as part of their curriculum.
