Be very careful when relying on insurance cost estimates provided by this clinic…read more I sought clarification regarding my expected costs before scheduling additional treatment and made my decisions based on the information communicated to me. I later received unexpected bills totaling $120. What disappointed me most was not the amount itself, but the response afterward. The clinic acknowledged that "false expectations" had been created, yet maintained that nobody had done anything wrong and that the entire financial responsibility remained mine. Future patients should obtain written confirmation of all expected out-of-pocket costs before proceeding with treatment.

She had reviewed my intake form thoroughly, asked thoughtful questions and listened carefully as she took notes for my initial visit with a complaint of plantar fasciitis.

I decided to take this class on a whim ( a friend had been taking Tai Chi lessons) and I have not…read moreregretted my decision. This has been one of the most enjoyable activities I have done and it is because of Chris, the instructor. He is so fluid and graceful and still demonstrates how this can be a martial art. He breaks down the movements into simple steps so what looks to be confusing because it appears so complex becomes easy to repeat. He points out nuances in position and movements and explains why they are important so that I don't feel that I am doing pointless movements. He is patient and supportive so that no one in the group feels uncomfortable. I know that I often look awkward but Chris always helps. I plan to continue doing this with Chris indefinitely.

During this time, I have tried meditation, yoga, swimming, etc. None of them got me very excited. I found Uplift Yourself through a meet-up website and decided to give it a try. I learned that they are a non-profit organization, so anyone is welcome to join their class, regardless of the tuition. Also, I was fortunate to spend some time alone with one of the Qigong teachers, Kathy Fogarty. The individualized attention I received from her was truly a blessing. I also noticed that I have had less stress and tension in my body whenever I am in this place. I think I finally found something that I will enjoy doing and gives great benefit to myself mentally and physically.

The health benefits were immediate--I am stronger and far more flexible--and after the disappointment of having attended the classes of others who taught this art as little more than sophisticated hand waving, it is a pleasure to be learning from someone who possesses real martial abilities.

This isn't westernized "McDonalds" qigong, this is the genuine practice, the teachings passed down by Chinese masters of the art. As a beginner, I wasn't entirely sure what to expect. Vadim made me feel immediately welcome, patiently reviewing foundational practices like Ba Duan Jin. I'm thrilled he emphasizes standing practices (e.g. Zhan zhuang), deceptively powerful exercises often overlooked by lesser teachers. He's great at demonstrating proper form, explaining WHY we're learning particular practices, and patiently correctly mistakes in our form. After my last class (a real workout for body and mind!) we got tea and talked about life. I'm extremely grateful for the opportunity to learn from such an accomplished and generous teacher. Hope to see you in class one day!

It amazes me that the gentle movements work my entire body and gives me strength and flexibility that had been diminishing, not to mention the mind and spirit connection.

I always leave the classes happy that I made the commitment to my health and well-being with Vadim's help. I am so thankful to have found Vadim and that he is in Woodinville, available to share his many talents with us!
