As a Certified Master Level Instructor, I look back to the days when I was first introduced to Tai Chi. While hiking with a friend in the mountains above Taipei, Taiwan we came upon a meadow and my friend said, “Would you like to see me perform T’ai Chi? It was a sunny, warm day and the beauty of the mountains was the perfect back-drop for what became an integral part of my life. As she moved from posture to posture I fell in love with the slow, flowing choreographed movements. I returned to my home in Ventura, CA where I was living at the time, and found a teacher. Ever since, T’ai Chi has been a nurturing and sustaining part of my life. I cannot imagine a day without T’ai Chi.

When I moved to Bellingham a few years ago, I opened my studio with the desire to share T’ai Chi and all of its benefits with others as well as my passion for this graceful and beneficial art form. I have been a teacher my entire life in all of my endeavors, so teaching T’ai Chi was very natural.

Since those early days, my program is now an Accredited Tai Chi and Qigong Program with the American Tai Chi and Qigong Association. I am also a 501 (c) 3 non- profit in the State of Washington. As part of my mission, I support other non-profits who share a similar mission of enhancing the health and well being of the community.

With over 5,000 hours of teaching and thousands of hours of training, and passion for T’ai Chi, I strive to create a learning experience and environment that is fun, encouraging, supportive and true to the form of Tung Family.
