Your studio's teaching deserves a home
Forms get adapted in class and the variations get lost. Mandarin names and philosophical terms get used in passing. Lineage stories and history rarely make it onto the page. C3NTR is a quiet place to write it all down once, in your studio's voice.
Who this is for
Studios with multiple teachers
Two or more teachers, several classes a week. C3NTR holds the shared standard so every teacher draws from the same library.
Teacher training programmes
You're training the next generation of teachers. C3NTR holds the curriculum your trainees read: the practices, the philosophy, the lineage.
Built for teachers, not for IT
Your teacher opens the app, taps Edit, and writes the next form breakdown in plain prose. The next class, students arrive knowing the sequence.
Write directly in the app
Like a notepad. New articles are drafts until you publish, so nothing goes live by mistake.
Mobile-first authoring
Edit on the phone between classes or on the way home. The same library, the same edit screen.
A working library in under an hour
Import the starter template in a few taps. Edit anything that doesn't fit. Publish when ready.
Levels, beginner, intermediate, teacher training
Content locked by level, in your studio's progression
Tag any article with a minimum level. Beginners see basic forms. Intermediate see longer sequences. Trainees see facilitation. The same library, the right view per student.
A glossary of qi gong terminology
Qi gong carries its own language. C3NTR's glossary holds the terms in one place: the names, your studio's translation, and the article each term appears in.
- Qi Gong
- Qi Gong (氣功), literally "energy work" or "the cultivation of qi." A family of Chinese practices combining slow movement, breath, and focused attention.
- Wuji
- Wuji (無極), the state of emptiness before movement begins. The standing posture that opens and closes most Qi Gong practices.
- Sōng
- Sōng (鬆), relaxed, released. Free of unnecessary tension. The single most important quality in Qi Gong.
- Dan Tian
- Dan Tian (丹田), the lower centre, three finger-widths below the navel. Often translated as "elixir field" or simply "the centre."
- Zhan Zhuang
- Zhan Zhuang (站樁), "standing like a post." The practice of holding a particular standing posture for a sustained period.
- Ba Duan Jin
- Ba Duan Jin (八段錦), the "Eight Brocades" or "Eight Pieces of Silk Brocade." One of the most widely taught Qi Gong sets in the world.
Workshops, retreats, teacher training
C3NTR isn't only the library. Schedule the next workshop, post retreat dates, and let students see what's ahead. Announcements land on their Today tab and events sit on the calendar.
Start from our Qi Gong template
A working starter with 15 articles, 2 short videos, a 9-terms glossary across 5 tags (Getting Started, Foundations, The Practices, Working with Qi, Practising Daily). Import in a few taps, then edit anything that doesn't fit your school. Every article, term and tag is yours from the moment you import.

Common questions
Can students only see their level's material?
Yes. Tag any article with a minimum level. Beginners see only foundations. Teachers and senior students see everything.
Does it cover medical qigong, Daoist, Wuxing, your lineage?
C3NTR is lineage neutral. The library is yours to fill: medical qigong, Daoist, Wuxing, your lineage or your own teacher's transmission.
Can my studio customise the qi gong template?
Yes. Every article, practice and term is editable. Add your studio's sequencing, your cueing language and your tradition.
How long does it take to set up?
Most schools have a working library in under an hour. Import the starter template in a few taps, then edit anything that doesn't fit. Starting blank takes a little longer. Allow an hour or two to write your first ten articles. Students can use the app the day you publish.
Do I have to stop using my booking system?
No. C3NTR is a knowledge library for your curriculum, terminology and progressions. Booking, billing and scheduling stay with the tools you already use.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. Seed is free forever for up to 30 students, with no credit card required. Move up to School (£39/mo) or Academy (£69/mo) when you outgrow it.
