A FEAST OF QIGONG: A RARE SPRING RETREAT WITH ROBERT PENG

Spring is nature’s invitation to begin again — a sacred season of rebirth, movement, and clarity. And in April 2026, something truly special is blossoming…

After a 10-year pause since Robert’s last retreat in the Hudson Valley, he’s delighted to resume his highly acclaimed, small-scale, and customized long weekend retreat — now held at Hutton Brickyards, a riverside sanctuary nestled along the Hudson River in Kingston, New York.

This is more than a getaway. It’s a radiant, custom-curated feast of Qigong — a weekend of healing sound, movement, stillness, nature, and collective energy.

Together, we’ll rise with the spirit of Spring and immerse ourselves in a powerful Qi field — restoring vitality, expanding clarity, and aligning with the deeper rhythm of renewal.

A thoughtfully curated program featuring:

  • Small Heavenly Circuit Meditation – an esoteric Taoist internal alchemy practice for circulating and refining vital energy.

  • Fusion of Signature Robert Peng Qigong PracticesYi Jin Jing, 8 Cycles, 4 Cycles, and more.

  • Healing Sounds & Seasonal Empowerment – Especially supporting the liver and gallbladder for spring detox and direction

  • Longevity Walking – Meditative steps through scenic garden paths

  • Elemental Qigong: Tree · Flower · River · Mountain– Gather and refine nature’s energies for strength, joy, flow, and inner stillness

  • Group Healing – For deep personal and collective transformation

This retreat is perfect for:

  • Experienced students ready to deepen their Qigong practice in a highly energized, immersive environment

  • Qigong enthusiasts, whether new or seasoned, open to cultivating energy, self-healing, and spiritual clarity

Even simply being in this sacred Qi field — held by nature and community — can be profoundly healing.

We begin Thursday evening, April 16, and conclude at 11am on Sunday, April 19. You’ll also receive supporting materials to continue your practice at home.

Come restore your body, quiet your mind, and open your heart. Step into a weekend of peace, power, and presence — held in nature, community, and Qi.

Meet Robert Peng

Robert Peng, a world-renowned qigong master and healer, was born and raised in Hunan, China. At age eight, he began an intensive apprenticeship under the close guidance of the legendary monk Xiao Yao, an enlightened master known for his profound healing ability and martial arts skill. At age 15, Robert endured a 100-day water fast in a small dark room at a secluded monastery in the remote mountains of Hunan province, which initiated a radical spiritual transformation and awakened amazing healing powers. 

After pursuing his training quietly while attending university in Changsha, he began to teach publicly at 29, and within five years had trained over 150,000 students all over China, Australia, and the US. 

With his deep understanding and practice of qigong, and with extensive life and teaching experience in the Western world, Robert has developed a unique way to teach qigong that people from different cultures can easily understand and follow while enjoying the real essence of this ancient Chinese healing art of wisdom, love, and vitality. 

Robert is the author of The Master Key: Qigong Secrets for Vitality, Love, and Wisdom, The WAY of VIRTUE: Qigong Meditations to Cultivate Perfect Peace in an Imperfect World, and the DVD/CD companion series, The Master Key. Together with Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Perna Chadron, Robert was honored as one of Spirituality & Health magazine's "Top 10 Spiritual Heroes of 2013" for his contribution to transforming the ancient Chinese healing art of qi.
