YOUR QIGONG TEACHERS
Ellen Cohen, Qigong Trainer
Ellen Cohen is a Spring Forest Qigong Certified Practice Group Leader and Trainer.
In 2004, Ellen was hospitalized for a non-cancerous brain tumor. At the hospital she had a brain hemorrhage. She had to relearn how to walk, talk, write, use a knife, sit up et cetera.
On her healing journey, she discovered that healing requires a team and that any one modality does not have all the answers. So over the years, she has utilized balance therapy, vision therapy, more physical therapy, acupuncture, reiki, Feldenkrais, kinesiology and yoga.
In 2019, she was introduced to Master Chunyi Lin and Spring Forest Qigong. Since then, she's added Spring Forest Qigong as part of her healing team. Very quickly her dizziness and balance improved and she experienced many changes that she hadn't even been counting on such as her depression subsided, her patience increased and she no longer wanted sugar of any kind.
Ellen is committed to spreading Master Lin’s vision of “a healer in every home and a world without pain and suffering” and is in awe of how technology is enabling that vision.
In addition to teaching Qi Activation, Ellen also runs online practice groups and provides distance healing. She can be reached at
Love Notes from Ellen's Students
Supportive & Confident Teacher
"My wife and I came to our first Qigong class as complete beginners, but any concerns we had about learning the form were quickly put to rest by Ellen’s skillful teaching. Her clear guidance and confidence in both herself and our ability to learn made us feel completely at ease. By the end of our session, we felt refreshed and revitalized—a testament to Ellen’s mastery of Qigong and her attentiveness to careful, supportive instruction."
-Daniel S.
Knowledgeable & Compassionate Teacher
“Ellen Cohen is an excellent teacher for Qigong, combining compassion and knowledge using Zoom to introduce all 5 movements in each 1-hour class. After several sessions the movements become familiar and easier to remember. She is always considerate of physical difficulties in her students and encourages participation even if it is necessary to do the exercises sitting or even lying down. She combines the physical exercises with guided meditation at the end. It is definitely helping to remove emotional blockages and to allow myself more freedom of expression. After the session I feel relaxed and energized. "
John W.
Incredible Healing Energy
I met Ellen 4 months ago and worked with her twice a week to cure myself of debilitating ear ringing. Her dedication to her practice, along with her intelligence, warmth and kindness made it possible for me to heal myself and discover a whole new way of being.
