Daisy Lee is the founder and principal teacher of Radiant Lotus Qigong, and has lectured extensively on Qigong as an empowering self-care practice in schools, hospitals, women’s organizations and numerous online summits.

She has studied and taught Qigong internationally for 30 years, including as a keynote speaker and workshop leader at the National Qigong Association, Kripalu Center, Omega Institute, and other venues. Her presentations at Johns Hopkins, Mount Sinai, and Women’s College hospitals have encouraged a collaborative approach to healing and healthcare between patients, caregivers, nurses, and doctors.

Known for her signature program, Radiant Lotus Women’s Qigong (RLWQ), Daisy was honored with the “Qigong Master of the Year” award in 2020 by the World Qigong Congress in recognition of her impact on women’s health and healing. Due to student enthusiasm, she offered the first RLWQ online certification in 2023 so that women instructors from around the world could teach this female-focused program in their country’s language.

Daisy also teaches classic systems of Qigong such as 8 Brocades, Wuji Hundun Qigong, Zang Fu Gong, and 5 Animal Qigong, offering students a diversity of styles to evolve their practice as practitioners and instructors. She is the 59th-generation lineage holder of the original 5 Animal Qigong from Bo Zhou, China that has been passed down from the famous Chinese physician, Hua Tuo.

Daisy recently received the “Humanitarian of the Year” award from the 23rd World Congress on Integrative Health: Healing with Peace. She lives on the beautiful island of Puerto Rico with her partner and collaborator, Mark Roule. Together they are building a boutique retreat center where they will hold in-person Qigong programs.

Marisa Cranfill is the founder of YOQI^® (Yoga + Qigong). Frequent trips as a child inspired Marisa to study academically and work in Asia for more than 25 years. While living in China and Thailand, she received direct transmission from Qigong masters, nuns, and healers in both the Buddhist and Daoist traditions. Marisa developed the YOQI method while teaching yoga and Qigong at meditation retreats in Thailand. The method follows the six phases of Qi flow to remove energy blockages and promote self-healing and spiritual insight.

Marisa is a certified (E-RYT^® 500) yoga, Yin Yoga, Vipassana meditation, and Qigong instructor. While her primary Qigong master is Mantak Chia of the Universal Healing Tao school, Marisa has trained with many Qigong and Tai Chi masters around the world — both famous and off the grid. She has been described as the “Queen of Qigong Flow,” with a resource library cataloging over 300 flows. A generous and lighthearted teacher, she guides her students through a functional approach and direct experience. Marisa, who teaches around the world, has the #1 ranking Qigong YouTube channel with an extensive VOD library.

Roni Edlund is a senior teacher at Lotus Nei Gong International school. She first started studying and practicing the eastern arts of Nei Gong, Yang-style Taiji, and Shaolin Gong Fu 14 years ago, and since then spent three years studying acupuncture at a university in England, and another three years studying Chinese medicine study at Xiantian college. Gradually women's neigong and meditation became a larger focus — and now she's becoming more passionate about benefiting women's health throughout the different phases of life, with the tools of Chinese medicine and women's Nei Gong. Roni and her husband Damo Mitchell co-wrote a book called Daoist Nei Gong for Women.
