Robert Peng
Robert Peng is a world-renowned Qigong master, healer, and teacher who was born and raised in Hunan, China. At the age of eight, he began an intensive apprenticeship under the Legendary Monk Xiao Yao, an enlightened master renowned for his extraordinary healing abilities and martial arts mastery. At fifteen, Robert completed a 100-day water fast in complete darkness at a secluded monastery deep in the mountains of Hunan, an experience that profoundly transformed his life and laid the foundation for his work as a healer and teacher.
Robert is the author of The Master Key: Qigong Secrets for Vitality, Love, and Wisdom and The Way of Virtue: Qigong Meditations to Cultivate Perfect Peace in an Imperfect World. He has created one of the most comprehensive Qigong training programs available today, guiding students from foundational practice through advanced teacher and professional healer training. His teachings reach a global audience through immersive online courses, live trainings, retreats, and a comprehensive digital library of Qigong teachings.
While studying English at university in Changsha, Robert continued his traditional Taoist and Buddhist training in private. At the age of twenty-nine, he began teaching publicly. Over the past three decades, he has introduced Qigong to more than a quarter of a million students throughout China, Australia, the United States, Europe, and beyond.
Drawing on authentic Taoist and Buddhist lineage training, together with decades of teaching experience in the West, Robert has developed a unique approach that makes the profound principles of Qigong accessible to people of all backgrounds while preserving the depth, integrity, and transformative power of this ancient healing art.
In 2013, Robert was recognized for his contribution to bringing the ancient Chinese healing art of Qigong to a global audience when he was named one of Spirituality & Health magazine's Top 10 Spiritual Heroes, alongside Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Pema Chödrön.
