I'm looking for a Neigong/internal arts teacher. At first, I was drawn to Nathan Brine because I liked his vibe, but I saw a post from @freeform saying that the foundations (which are of the utmost importance) are not well covered in his teaching.
He recommended Damo Mitchell, whose approach is close to what he himself is studying.
The thing is, I don’t really feel the vibe from Damo. I’m usually very sensitive to this kind of thing, and I trust my intuition—so it would feel wrong for me to ignore it and follow his courses.
At the same time, if I choose Nathan Brine, I’m worried I might miss out on important elements.
This topic on Reddit also didn’t really help me decide in favor of Damo:
So I’d really appreciate some advice.
For me, internal arts are a way to align more deeply with my spiritual beliefs and help me move closer to dao. But my feelings are telling me that Damo Mitchell might not fully embody this—at least not as much as Nathan does.
What are your thoughts?
