“Nathan, Thank you very much for this course! You have put so much effort and thought into every detail that it makes the atmosphere supportive and instructions easy to follow. This course changed everything. It gave me a concrete tool with which to gather jing and chi and Shen back to my body. It also helped me to locate the lower space and refine my breathing. Also it gave me some understanding of what the Taoist alchemy is all about in this lineage. My heart is so grateful and happy. I feel like coming home after 30 years of searching. None of those days were wasted because of finding a true treasure. Thank you.”

Instructor(s)

Nathan began Taoist practice in 1997, immersing himself in Taoist temple arts, martial arts, meditation, internal work (neigong), energy work (qigong), and internal alchemy. For several years Nathan lived in China and trained full-time with a number of masters, as well as learning Mandarin Chinese. Afterwards, Nathan returned to Canada to pursue academic study of Taoism, where he received an honours degree in Asian Languages and Culture and worked towards an MA at the University of British Columbia, extending his knowledge of Classical Chinese and the Taoist canon. After meeting Wang Liping, Nathan left graduate school and devoted himself wholly to learning Taoist alchemy. In 2015 Wang Liping authorized Nathan to teach and write a series of books detailing Dragon Gate alchemy.
