Welcome to the Qigong & Daoist Training Center (QDTC) located in Sebastopol,
California, USA. The QDTC is the umbrella organization for the activities and services of Michael Rinaldini (Li Chang Dao), a Qigong Teacher, and a 22nd generation Longmen Dragon Gate Daoist priest.
Michael has been teaching qigong for about 15 years and other spiritual practices dating back to the 70′s. He is a certified high level teacher by both the National Qigong Association, where he is certified as a Level IV Qigong Teacher-the highest level. And he is certified by Master Wan Sujian as a “senior” teacher and is authorized to teach his Bagua Xundao Gong Qigong.
One of the main activities of the QDTC is the founding of the American Dragon Gate Lineage (ADGL). The ADGL is inspired by the teachings of Chinese Qigong and Daoist Master Wan Su Jian from Beijing, China, and from Daoist Priest Ji Zhi Tong of White Cloud Temple, Beijing. Historically, the ADGL is linked to the Quanzhen-Complete Perfection school of religious Daoism, founded by Wang Zhe (Chongyang, 1113-1170 AD) and his direct disciples.
Michael offers both local and distance Qigong Certification programs for those seriously wanting a solid foundation in qigong and Daoist studies.
