Do-In Fundamentals: Establishing the Roots

Experience more energy, clarity, and balance by weaving ancient Eastern wisdom into your daily life. The Fundamentals course focuses on self-care and personal growth, while laying a solid foundation for your path as a practitioner.

In this first year, you will experience the classic Do-In exercises and meridians up close. But you will learn so much more than just movement: we dive into Five Elements Nutrition and discover how the Chinese Organ Clock helps you listen to your natural rhythm. This way, you learn to tune your lifestyle to these ancient principles, making balance a natural part of your everyday life. Whether you are joining for personal growth or taking the first step toward certification, you will establish the roots you need for a lifetime of health and vitality.

Do-In Intermediate training: Strengthening the Trunk

In the Intermediate course, we build upon the solid foundation of the first. The focus shifts toward the art of teaching: you will learn how to design balanced Do-In sequences and share them with a group with confidence.

You will put this into practice by designing your own lessons and trying them out in your own environment. You write reports about your teaching experiences, and receive personal feedback from your teacher via email. Additionally, you are welcome to request a personal mentoring session with your teacher throughout the course. This dedicated one-on-one guidance ensures you grow in a very targeted way as you learn to structure your classes. After this year, you will be fully equipped to pass on the power of Do-In in an accessible and inspiring way.

Advanced Do-In: The Blossoming

As your tree reaches its full height, we focus on the most profound aspects of Do-In. This advanced training explores the Eight Extraordinary Vessels (Qi Jing Ba Mai) — the primal channels that hold the blueprint of your soul. Here, you learn to release deep-seated patterns and bring people into contact with their true life direction, while mastering the art of Eastern diagnostics.

Throughout the course, you will learn to work with these eight channels to restore core vitality, read the body's signals through visual, verbal, and energetic assessment, and guide others through profound life transitions and personal growth. You will also have the opportunity to request mentoring sessions along the way for personal support. After completing this final year, you have all the knowledge and skills needed to provide professional coaching, consultations, and tailored therapeutic private lessons, allowing you to apply Do-In on a deep, healing level.

That's why: Do-In Academy

You may be attracted to Do-In Academy because you want to apply the knowledge and experience for yourself and your family, or maybe you feel like passing this knowledge on professionally.

The training is in any case a path full of experiences and healing for yourself, where you learn to strengthen and balance your life force. It is also wonderful to be able to apply this for friends and family.
If you want a certificate to teach (second year) or give coaching (third year), you submit the assignments mentioned in the course material. Many former students now have flourishing practices within which they give lessons, facilitate workshops at companies or offer consultations.
If you choose not to submit any assignments, you will receive a certificate of participation. This is also worth a lot: former students report that even years after they have completed a year of training, they still apply the Do-In exercices, nutrition, meditation and acupressure points for themselves and within their family in a healing way.

A Path of Personal Growth

The training is a discovery filled with valuable experiences and deepening insights. You learn to strengthen your own life force and apply this wisdom within your family or circle of friends. Past students often share that, years later, they still benefit daily from the exercises, nutrition guides, and meditations they learned here.

Your Path to Professional Practice

Do you want to share Do-In professionally? You can grow into this at your own pace:

  • After the second year: You receive your certificate to teach Do-In classes.
  • After the third year: You are fully certified to offer professional coaching and consultations.

To earn your certificates, you submit your assignments along the way. Many of our alumni now run thriving practices, teach workshops, or lead weekly classes.

Certificate of Attendance

Choosing not to submit assignments? No problem at all: you will receive a beautiful certificate of attendance upon completion. The profound knowledge and personal growth you experience along the way are just as valuable—with or without exam assignments.

"There are things you wish you had discovered much earlier... The Do-In training with Lilian is definitely one of them. It's wonderful that I can share the knowledge and wisdom of TCM through Lilian, and that I can share that knowledge in the classes I now teach. I think it's a top-notch training, and Lilian is fantastic!"
