I have been practising Tai Chi Chuan for 35 years.

I am a student of Master John Ding and a registered instructor with the Master Ding International Academy Tai Chi Chuan.

My previous teachers included pupils and instructors who traced a lineage back to Cheng Man Ching one of the first Orientals to teach in the west.

I have also spent time in the Far East with The Henan Shaolin wushu monks under the direction of Master Ma Nian, and at the London Shaolin temple under the direction of Shi Yan Qing.

At present I am studying with Jamyang Buddhist center in London completing the FBT course and Lamrim Chenmo teachings. And embarked with the British school of Yoga on a tibetan medicine course. and of course continued instruction from Master Ding recently completing the sword form and sabre form instructors course.

I began teaching after eleven years of practise, with the permission of my teacher.

Presently and in the past I have taught  classes at Center Parcs, for Norwich and Norfolk Dance, Norwich Hospital trust, and Norfolk County Council Education department and social services department, the Vauxhall centre,  unit 81 and private tuition  classes. Corporate clients have included British Telecom, Norwich Union, Barclays Bank and the RAC.

Coming from a professional performance background, means I have well honed communication skills. I bring to my work a passion and an understanding that comes from the cultivation of humility and patience.
