About the Associates Forum

Direct transmission of knowledge from teacher to disciple is one of the characterizing features of Classical Chinese Medicine. This type of transmission far exceeds the data aspect of the information discussed, and emphasizes the immediacy, passion, and heart based quality of the discipleship approach that generally gets lost in written modes of communication.

The Associates Forum has been configured to feature video presentations and written material of the Classical Chinese Medicine teachings by Profs. Wang Qingyu, Liu Lihong, Heiner Fruehauf, and a variety of other scholars and physicians who are at the forefront of the Classical Chinese Medicine renaissance in China. Most of the video presentations have been recorded in locations in mainland China.

The Associates Forum has also been designed as a source for Professional Development Activity credits through the NCCAOM. We are a certified provider.

We are committed to our associates to upload one new lecture every month, as well as previously unpublished written material, for the duration of your year-long membership. Membership to the Associates Forum is $195. (US dollars).
