Personal TCC Journey

My TCC journey started at the end of 2011 taking my first 8-week T’ai Chi Chih weekly class at YMCA after hearing from a retired nurse friend about this moving meditation. At the end of the first class, I told the teacher: “I want to teach this one day because it’s so effective in calming the mind and feeling the energy.” I am now an accredited teacher teaching T’ai Chi Chih after retiring from being a CPA for nearly 40 years since 2018.

Benefits of T’ai Chi Chih

Traditional Chinese Medicine believes that blockage or imbalance of Chi are causes of pain or illness. My T’ai Chi Chih teacher said, “T’ai Chi Chih is like acupuncture without the needle.” I heard many students describe the emotional, physical, mental and spiritual changes they have experienced, some even within very short time after they started classes. The effects of the practice are cumulative, so many benefits take place over time. I continue to learn from this simple yet profound practice and continue to benefit from practicing and teaching in ways I have never imagined when I first stepped into a T’ai Chi Chih class.
