Corey Hess Qigong, Body Therapy, Healing Arts

Sep 2023

Corey Hess is one of the most humble, authentic and inspiring teachers I've ever known with his wholehearted and down-to-earth teaching style.

In the blogs, he shares so beautifully and compassionately the deep insight and knowledge which come from his direct experience and understanding. He sincerely wishes to help others.
