When I was first introduced to the Taoist Internal Arts 27 years ago, I recognized how they represented a unique method to train the body. As an athlete, I was very good at using speed and endurance to win. Starting at 10, I pursued swimming seriously enough to be on NYU's NCAA  Varsity Swimming Team. I also taught swimming including coaching a Town Swim Team that I expanded from 50 kids to over 140 in three years, including one who still competes as a World Class Triathlonist. 

While my passion is Baguazhang, my specialties are using Qigong for Stress Management and the rehabilitation of injuries using Qigong and Wu Style Taijiquan. My Qigong for Stress Management Course addresses both the physical (e.g. Back Pain, Repetitive Stress maladies like Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Arthritis, Headaches & Acid Reflex Disease) and psychological manifestations of stress. 

My method of teaching is derived from the way I learned. I deconstruct each movement into individual beats (e.g. States) whose change to the next state is described in term of simple actions like expansion, compression, coil in, coil out and shift weight (e.g. Operators). I demonstrate actions both for visual and tactile observation. Tactile observation is important for the students to feel the changes of state in their own bodies.

I currently teach Qigong, Taijiquan and Baguazhang at the Wu Tang Physical Culture Association under the tutelage of Sifu Frank Allen.

For the last decade, I have competed regularly in tournaments collecting a modest clutch of medals from forms events.
