The 7 Lotus Sequential Chi Kung program offers energy management and a healing system based on ancient Taoist, Hindu & Vedic technologies. Combined and developed by Carlos de León, creator of Ontogony, this program includes online teachings and personal guidance from your instructor.
The 7 Lotus Chi Kung Program for Healing, Transformation and Liberation offers a practice in postures, breathing, and movement; complemented with visualization and vocalization. There are 7 progressive levels in this online system, each building capacity, and well-being, with the guidance of Tessy Bardavid. Before advancement to the Sixth Lotus, a personal interview is arranged for review and evaluation.

The Ontogonic vision recognizes that we participate in an open energy system that sustains and contributes to our well-being and regulates, to an important extent, our ability to grow, transform and evolve. These practices and “technologies,” both ancient and modern, help to build, purify and manage our energy with significant, often life-changing outcomes.

The Sixth Lotus Program is based on a powerful Chi Kung known as Chan Mi Gong. This offers a different flavour with more emphasis on managing energy through consciousness. In this sequence we mobilize the spine, stimulating the central nervous system and the subtle meridians that activate Kundalini; and we focus on the cleansing and harmonization of the energy of the brain.

This Chi Kung invites us to recognize ourselves as an íntegral part of the Universe, connecting to its amazing power and its natural and beautiful harmony.

Program Objectives:

  • Explore and enhance energy, mental clarity, and internal strength (in your physical & subtle bodies) through harmonizing your Yin and Yang energies;
  • Discover how deepening your presence in the here and now expands the ability to connect to our Cosmic Being;
  • Strengthen the flexibility of your spine to activate kundalini, assist the removal of energetic and emotional blockages and promote transmutation;
  • Experience how, by uniting energy and consciousness, we open our internal energetic flow and prepare our body for greater spiritual development.

A Live Intensive Training, facilitated by Tessy Bardavid and offered in a small residential group setting, for deep integration of the practice and theory of 7 Lotus Chi Kung. This program is aimed at creating instructors with the skills, energy, motivation, and right vision for sharing the practice one-on-one and/or with groups.

Proposed Dates for 2022: (A minimum number of ten students is required for the Training to be offered in your country. The proposal is for a Week-Long Intensive.)

  • Mexico: June 2022

  • Spain: July or August 2022

  • Vancouver, Canada: October 2022

Under the guidance of Tessy Bardavid, each student practices as an instructor while fellow students observe and provide feedback. By engaging in this way, the deepest aspects of the training process are explored experientially, the technique is polished, and one’s grasp on the components of 7 Lotus Chi Kung & the Foundational Principles of Ontogony, is both strengthened and refined.

Objectives for Integration and Expansion: in terms of experience, depth, and clarity regarding the practice, theory, didactics, and necessary tools to be a qualified 7 Lotus Chi Kung Instructor.

Vision for the 7 Lotus Instructor Training:

  • The 7 lotus Teacher’s Training is ideal for deepening your own growth process;

  • Kung practice inspires us to connect with our true nature; where life acquires a taste of health, joy, expansion, fluidity, harmony, and we grow in love and wisdom;

  • When a person practices for him or herself, a certain level of consciousness opens and expands;

  • When the energy of the practice is projected in a sharing with others, a new portal of connection and inspiration opens to penetrate the deeper levels of consciousness;

  • Implied is an assumption of responsibility and commitment to one's own practice, along with one’s personal application of the principles that support the development of consciousness from the vision of Chi Kung; because...

  • We can only transmit what we have integrated … what, for us, is real and has genuine meaning in our lives!

Chi Kung Instructor Intensive Program Highlights:

  • Learn the necessary aspects of didactics and group management for the effective teaching of Lotus Chi Kung;

  • Review each Lotus sequence and the accompanying theory for each level of Chi Kung;

  • Participate in practices with supervision and feedback on teaching skills for each level of Lotus Chi Kung; and

  • Receive the Yu Ren Chuan & Nei Kung Teachings of the first three steps of the practice.

To register and/or to learn more about the program, contact Tessy Bardavid at berajot_18@yahoo.com.mx and arrange a personal interview. She will provide the full details of the training and the necessary prerequisites, based on whether you are currently a student of Tessy’s, or have received the training from another instructor.
