Qing Gong... I havent practiced it like I should, I can give you the practice methods I was taught, and maybe you can take it from there.
Start with 2 Bricks. Lay them down, flat side down. Stand on the Bricks like Hugging the Tree until its easy for you. Put the bricks on the long side. Stand on the Bricks like Hugging the Tree. Put the Bricks on the small side. Stand on Bricks like Hugging the Tree until its easy for you. Shift wieght from right to left foot until it becomes easy. Switch from right Light Stance to Left Light Stance until it becomes easy.
Next get 8 bricks, Walking the circle as in Baguazhang, lay the bricks flat side down, walk until your comfortable. Put the bricks on the long side, walk until your comfortable. Put the bricks on the small side, walk on the bricks until your comfortable. If you can, include Kou Bu.
Next get a large Clay or plastic pot, with at least a 3 foot diamater, and fill it with soil. Walk around the edge until your comfortable. Then you remove more and more dirt, until you can walk around with no dirt and the pot does not tip over.
Next take 2 4x4s and put them at a 45 degree angle to the roof of a 1 story building. Run up the boards using the same style steps it takes to circle the pot. When you can do it easily and quickly, decrease the angle until your running all the way up the building with no 4x4s. Make sure you jump off the building after each time you run up.
From there, you can do everything they do in all those videos.
There are Qigongs for Qing Gong I do not know, that may or may not be necessary. You can still achieve those goals of running up buildings and a soft step with or without the Qigong.
