I have been an accredited T' ai Chi Chih instructor since 1993. Before I became the Holmes Institute and CSL Distance Education Dean in 2004, I taught T' ai Chi Chih in places such as the Camp Pendleton Marine Base, a real estate company, a used car company, the Chopra Center, fitness studios, senior living facilities, and the Encinitas Senior Center. I kept up my Encinitas Senior Center classed during the 16 1/2 years I was the Dean. I have taught T’ai Chi Chih on Zoom from the for the past 2 ½ years for the Encintias Senior Center, Seaside Center for Spiritual Living, the CSL Professional Development program, and continue to teach on-line through Enhancing Life Unlimited.
