I have played tai chi with Jeffrey for several years. I broke my knee last year and my body did not work as it had prior to the injury. I was frustrated and at times fearful of not regaining my level of movement once more. Jeffrey not only helped me regain and improve my alignment and softness again through standing qigong and push hands, I feel in some ways I have surpassed my prior abilities in these areas. 

Jeffrey has a deep energetic awareness within himself that he can physically share with his students. He also is light hearted and creates a positive environment for each of his students to learn and play in

He loves this art and can teach it successfully to others. Try his class. You will not be disappointed.

I came to my first class not knowing what to do or expect, Jeffrey immediately made me feel at ease and is very light hearted and approachable. Once we began to practice, it was evident that he is so rooted and grounded into his practice while still being able to invite a sense of play into his approach. He easily breaks down the form into digestible parts which makes him an excellent teacher.

After working with Jeffrey, I learned to lighten up, literally, while simultaneously becoming more rooted and grounded in my practice. Jeffrey is approachable, kind hearted, with a sense of joy and an absolute knowledge of the form.

I understand much more about rooting, energy flow, and the importance of centering. I know it will take time to improve, but I am more excited about Tai Chi and Qigong than I have been in a long time. Jeffrey has years of studies and practice, and presents his knowledge in an accessible way. He answers every question that we pose to him in a way that we can understand. This class could end tomorrow and I will have gotten enough clarification for a lifetime's practice.

We've worked together for a long time and I love the way Jeffrey can tune into an individual and help explain for their perspective. I love our class and our group. I’m starting to do more and think less although these changes happen slowly! Jeffrey’s knowledge goes so deep it is hard to match anywhere.

Studying with Jeffrey opened my mind to areas that I didn't know were connected to tai chi, and I learned many new things, which made it exciting. His smaller class sizes allowed for more one on one practice and individual help. I found it intriguing, exciting, and confusing at times, but persevering and pursuing was worth the effort. The more I learned, the more there was to learn, which gave me the incentive to continually chase after it.

Jeffrey breaks a movement down showing there is more than one way to step into a posture should a person have physical difficulties. I am more aware of not only my own energy but that of another person’s. He also brings a sense of fun and joy to his classes.

When I first started training with Jeffrey I was afraid I wouldn’t be good enough or be able to learn. However, over time, I’ve improved my ability to care for myself and have developed more positive self esteem. My balance both physically and mentally has improved. Jeffrey offers lots of repetition and helps each individual to learn and understand. I would and do recommend his classes to those who are interested.
