Health & Well Being Education Project

Having a background in martial arts (I started when I was 16) has helped me as a graphic artist, author, photographer and CAD draftsman to document the vast curriculum available from martial arts, qigong (tai chi & yoga) and many other fitness/wellness methods.

I having been working on a lifelong project of producing books(lets), graphic charts, posters and videos to help educate people about how these ancient methods are truly a self healthcare program. Hopefully more people can realize that we as individuals, are in control of how our health and well being is maintained into our latter years.

Yang Style Tai Chi – 24 Forms

In 1956 a group of Tai Chi experts, organized by the Chinese State Physical Culture & port Commission created the simplified 24 set Tai Chi Quan based on Yang Style.

Regulating the breath can change our emotions which adjusts the blood chemistry which in turn, effects the internal organs.

Often times, people confuse harder with better, when speaking about health, fitness and well being.

Movement within the 3 anatomical planes, is a another benefit of Tai Chi exercises. These low impact exercises are also very good for managing chronic pain while rehabilitating injuries. Many practice these methods to relax, relieve stress and become more self-aware.
