Orientation for the Internal Arts Practitioner Path

A 12-Month Immersive Training in Wudang Internal Arts, Embodied Practice, & Teaching Foundations

 

 

Apply Here
The Internal Arts Practitioner Path is entered intentionally.
This page is offered as an orientation and not as a continuation of the main page..
if you are here because you want depth, structure, ongoing refinement, and a coherent practice that supports teaching and living from it, then you are in the right place.
Please read slowly.

 

The nature of this path

The Internal Arts Practitioner Path is a year-long immersive training that guides you through:

 

foundational internal arts practice

embodied movement, stillness, and Qi cultivation

grounded teaching skills and language

aligned pathways to share and (eventually) earn from your art

 

Who this Training is for

This training is for you if you want:

✔ A clear daily practice that sustains you

✔ Embodied understanding of Qi, alignment, movement, and Spirit

✔ Confidence in teaching foundational internal arts

✔ A grounded, human-centered path to sharing your work

✔ A supportive long-term container for integration

 

Who this path may not be suited for

This training is likely not a good fit if:

❌ You want short, superficial techniques
❌ You want instant results without consistent practice
❌ You are not ready to engage with your own body, energetics and mental dynamics
❌ You want a shortcut to mastery

Responsibility & practice

This path invites personal responsibility, held within a supportive and guided structure.

You are not expected to practice perfectly or intensely. The work is designed to fit into everyday life, and over time you’ll learn how to apply it naturally within your own rhythm and circumstances, to organically transform your energetics and life.

What is asked is an honest and consistent relationship to practice and openness to the process. 

Internal Arts unfold through time ( timelessness ), continuity, and the choices you make about where to place your attention and care.

No one can walk the path for you, but you are accompanied as you learn how to walk it yourself.

What You Will Gain

By the end of this path, you will:
  • ✨ Have a grounded and evolving personal practice

  • ✨ Understand internal arts from inside-out

  • ✨ Embody coherent movement, stillness, and Qi awareness

  • ✨ Teach classes or workshops with grounded confidence

  • ✨ Have foundations to share and earn from your work

  • ✨ Be part of a community of practitioners with integrity

Before you apply

Take a moment to feel into the following:

  • Can I realistically commit to twelve months of steady practice?

  • Am I willing to practice without constant external input?

  • Do I feel resonance with the pace and restraint of this work?

If the answer is yes, you are more than welcome to apply.

If the answer is uncertain, that is also information.

Applying

If, after reading this orientation, you feel aligned, you may submit a written application below.

Applications are reviewed slowly and with care.
Not all applications are accepted.

This ensures clarity and integrity, for you and for the container.

The Arc of the Training

I’m Catharina.

My work is rooted in internal arts, subtle movement, and lived coherence.
I guide people back into a direct relationship with their own energy, to meet life more clearly and steadily from the inside.

My background includes years of full-time training in the Wudang tradition in China. Over time, this training has evolved into a distilled, embodied approach that integrates the 3 treasures of life, structure, movement-energetics and spirit as one continuous practice.

The work I offer emphasizes harmonisation, sensitivity, and resilience. It supports the development of an inner foundation that is stable enough to hold complexity, and subtle enough to inform clear, grounded decisions.

This work doesn’t ask you to become someone special.
It invites you to return to the preciousness and worth that is already inherent - and to live from there with more coherence and discernment.
