Episode 41 | What Is Real Qigong? — with Master Yap

Cup of Chi Podcast

In this fascinating episode, we sit down with Master Yap for a deep and clarifying conversation about one of the most misunderstood practices in the wellness world — Qigong.

With so many movement-based exercises passing themselves off as Qigong — flowing hand gestures, breathwork routines, and choreographed sequences — Master Yap cuts through the noise to answer the question that so many practitioners and curious minds are asking: What is real Qigong?

Master Yap draws on decades of experience to explain the authentic roots, principles, and transformative depth of traditional Qigong, distinguishing it from the watered-down versions that have become increasingly commonplace. This is a conversation that will genuinely reshape how you understand this ancient art.

We also hear about Master Yap's recent travels across Ireland, where he has spent the past week sharing his knowledge and introducing students to Yan Shou Gong — the powerful system he teaches — bringing its wisdom to communities throughout the island.

Whether you're a seasoned practitioner, a curious beginner, or simply someone who loves a good cup of chi and a great conversation, this episode is one not to be missed.

☕ Pull up a chair. The chi is flowing.
