From the owner: The Village of Healing and Wellness in Erie, Pennsylvania promotes self healing through the…read more practice of Qi gong and Tai Chi.The Wu Yi Jie He 24 Posture Therapeutic Qigong for Health, healing and Longevity is the foundation of our healing program. This authentic system, Wu Yi Jie He (Family system of Chinese Medicine and Martial arts combined) was developed by Great Grand Master and Dr. Wang Zi Ping and Grand Master and Dr. Wu Cheng Du. It was further developed by Grand Master Helen Wu. We also teach other forms of QiGong for meditation and spiritual growth. Fred Popeski was promoted to fifth generation in the Wu Yi Jie He family. It is his belief that all healing comes from within, where the problems exist. For lasting healing to take place, an individual must take personal responsibility for their own healing. Mind body integration is necessary for significant healing to take place. Our healing model works like a bicycle wheel. Imagine this wheel, it has the hub or centre with spokes for strength and support to complete a full circle, healing. The hub or centre is you. This is where QiGong comes in. Every day you do the healing work. This is the most significant part of your healing because you are taking control of your health. This alone has tremendous healing results. . We are located in Erie, Pennsylvania. We teach both QiGong and Taiji.

As other comments confirm: do not give them your credit card as they will continue to use it fraudulently.
