"My goal as a teacher
is to have you experience the
wonderful feeling
of the Tai Chi Chuan movements,
and to help you develop
in your own personal
best way"
"In the thirty-some years that I have been teaching and practicing Tai Chi Chuan, I have seen many benefit from its
regular practice over time. Improvements in breathing volume and blood oxygen levels, balance, flexibility, and general
increased health and stamina are some of the things that people tell me are the results of their time spent in the cultivation
of the Tai Chi Chuan movements...these are the most rewarding things a teacher can hear, and have kept me endeavoring to teach
this art."

"As a tonic, Tai Chi Chuan can make us physically and mentally sound.
Its slow and gentle movements act to lubricate every part of the body and relax the mind. This ancient system renders
our thinking lucid, turns our temper gentle and brings us peace of mind that helps us to function well in our hectic world.
It enables a person to attain what the ancient Chinese sages called 'the Golden Mean', in which human desires
and frustrations are harnessed and transformed to benefit the individual. "
