Meet Your Teacher


Greg BabichCertified Tai Chi Gung Instructor

I discovered Tai Chi Gung in 2021, after suffering a broken collar bone from a bike accident and coming down with Covid around the same time. I started doing the daily Tai Chi Gung exercises and have been doing them ever since. As a result I quickly recovered from my ailments, I have much more energy, go to sleep easily and sleep deeper, lowered stress, enhanced inner peace. 
 
In 2024 I became a Tai Chi Gung Instructor. Shortly there after I had a hip replacement.
The regenerative benefits of Tai Chi Gung helped me recover fully with no restrictions in 7 weeks! 
 
Please join me in taking a live Tai Chi Gung class. You will gain energy, feel younger, reduce stress, and regenerate your spirit, mind and body, improving your overall happiness and health.

Can I Join a Class Anytime?


Lao Tzu created a series of warm ups and 4 basic Standing Exercises that are the core of every class. These are simple moving and breathing exercises that help students feel the life energy of Nature directly. Almost 90% of students feel it in their very first class.

Whether you have been studying 6 minutes, 6 months or 6 years, you do the simple movements you learned in your very first class. They serve as an outline, and each student connects in their own way.

Because we don't hold back exercises, and they remain consistent, new students can join a live class any time. You'll feel right at home!
