Master Eric and his mom, Annie, are very knowledgeable and authentic teachers in this field that you will ever find in this area. They are very kind and patient with each and every student. Ever since I have started Tai Chi classes, I have missed several classes due to my health. When I return, Eric and Annie are always kind enough to work with me to continue from where I left. The group of people come to these classes have become my friends. When I miss a class or two, my friends help me to catch up too.

They've been at it a long time and now they're very good at imparting to others ways to breathe, stand and move that somehow engender energy, integration, and healing of body, mind and heart. I got to know them in 2015 after friends convinced me to take part in the Qigong class offered at the Crow Collection of Asian Art in the wellness program. I knew nothing about Qigong, my expectations were modest. The first class was profoundly refreshing - almost revelatory. How could a mere introduction to the ancient discipline of Qigong relieve pain, and give me the best experience of breathing I'd had in years. This may sound strange (Breathing? Really?) but I assure you it's true. I think I had forgotten how to breathe some years back, and it's been transformative to get that right again. I won't enumerate all the great outcomes. I do remain slightly mystified as to how something as subtle and quiet as this Qigong could have such far-reaching effects. Only wish I had started sooner. And I'll just add that Qigong is only a part of the healing work they do!

Class sizes may vary from 8-10 (when I've attended on Saturdays) to 2-4 (when I go Thursday nights). Age ranges generally run from 30s to 60s (with parents occasionally bringing young children with them). Suitable for a wide range of skill levels - often new students working alongside folks who've been doing this for years. Focus is generally on health and wellness, not marital arts (though Ch'en style classes do get into push hands). All major families of Tai Chi are taught, along with Qigong. Having studied several different places here in the Richardson area, this is the school I continue to go back to.
