Our Acupuncture School is Committed to the Transmission of the  Classical Tradition

C.A.A. is one of the very few schools in the world teaching true Classic Acupuncture. 
Our teachers can trace their lineage to the Great Masters

preserving and transmitting the authentic tradition.

CLASSIC ACUPUNCTURE TAUGHT

ONLINE  FOR  THE  FIRST  TIME

Our teaching is unique, because contrary to other schools, we do not teach a particular style of acupuncture but complete Classic Acupuncture, as it was preserved and transmitted by the Great Masters to a select few. 
Classic Acupuncture distinguish itself from the other kinds of acupuncture by its highly effective results. By taking this course, you will become part of a rare group of acupuncturists who share a reputation of great efficiency.

THE TRUE TRADITION OF ACUPUNCTURE

This 4 year course has been designed as a fully professional course without the need to attend a campus. This is the first Classic Acupuncture course to make full use of internet technologies, bringing the teaching to you and allowing you to access and review the material as many times as needed before moving on to the next lesson.

THE FLEXIBILITY OF ONLINE LEARNING

We make full use of online technologies to offer interactive content. Unlike campus-based schools, you will have uninterrupted access to teachers and course assistants. Every part of the course is available in multiple formats so you can study the way that works for you. We also organise regular online Q&A sessions and monthly live seminars, as well as yearly in-person practical seminars. This is much more than any other campus-based school is able to offer.

INTERACTIVE AND FULLY TUTORED

As part of the course, students participate in yearly practical seminars where  hands-on methods such as needling, cupping and moxibustion are taught. These 8-10 days boot camps are organised in several worldwide locations each year, making them easily accessible for everyone. This is a valuable opportunity to put the learning into practice and get actual hands-on experience.

SEMINARS

We encourage our students to join a study group in their geographical area. Students in the same region are able to meet, share and enrich each-other's learning experience. Study groups are also the basis of a strong support network that practitioners will be able to rely on throughout their career.

 

For those in remote locations, we also have online and social media-based groups.

Cupping is another technique seldom used by most TCM practitioners. Our students learn to apply it properly to obtain powerful results.

NEEDLES

Our students learn more needling techniques than are taught in most TCM schools, allowing them to get more effective and longer lasting results.

OTHER METHODS

In addition to common methods like Guasha, some ancestral techniques unknown to TCM are also part of our hands-on practical teaching, such as universal entrails massage.

OUR MISSION

To preserve and transmit the true tradition

We all see self-proclaimed experts who propose a mixture of techniques and teachings from various so-called masters and who offer accelerated seminars. 

​

The true masters did not teach their style, they transmitted the Tradition.
Classic (a.k.a. authentically traditional) Acupuncture was saved after the Chinese Revolution by several well-known Chinese masters, who lived outside communist rule and enjoyed an international reputation.

​

Our teaching is in direct lineage to these Great Masters. It is an ancient and precious heritage that we make our duty to transmit and preserve.

“One of my favorite things to do is to demystify the mystical.

I love to take abstract concepts and begin to use science as the contemporary

language of mysticism – to make it practical enough that every single person has

at their very fingertips the ability to apply it to some aspect of their life.”

Dr Joe Dispenza
