The Universal Circle Principle

Often people see Tai Chi (Qigong & Yoga) as some simple, slow motion, boring types of exercise for older adults. There is so much more going on that is not usually seen, understood or taught.

Unseen is the following:
– deep, rhythmic breathing
– movement in the 3 anatomical planes
– theory behind spiraling and gentle twisting of the torso and limbs to stimulate blood/energy flow while moving the internal organs
– philosophy of opposing forces interacting together
– inner journey of self-awareness while trying to become present in the now.

And so much more than meets the eye. For more information, contact at 407-234-0119.

Slow Movement with Awareness: Better than Exercise?

Good article about why, tai chi and yoga are such good methods to manage good health and wellness.

Having started at the age of 16, I have a very different perspective than my students whom many are just starting while in their 60’s and older. I live the “tai chi lifestyle” and know the benefits from almost 40 years of practicing and studying martial arts with tai chi and qigong. It is difficult for some people to understand that harder is not necessary better.

I have fixed or managed many personal injuries, such as knee trauma, neck, shoulder, elbow, lower back, headaches and sinus issues. Hard for most to believe, but I am living proof that these methods work, often with extraordinary results.

New Charts – Acupressure for Back Pain & Headaches

I have added new charts showing acupressure for back pain and headaches.  These are techniques that I was taught over 30 years ago from my martial arts masters and teachers.  The key factor is consistency – practicing the techniques on a regular basis can help relieve the chronic pain associated with back strains, headaches and the stress that often accompanies these issues.

These is an amazing amount of knowledge, methods and alternative options to manage chronic pain beyond surgery, opiates and anti-inflammatories.
