Gordon began his studies in the Internal Arts with Yang Style Master T. T. Liang in 1981. He learned Master Liangs complete system of health and martial exercises (including Qi Gong) and has since published a book on his studies with the famous master Yang Style Traditional Long Form T’ai Chi Ch’uan: As Taught by T.T. Liang.

On moving to the West Coast in the early 90’s Gordon began working with Chen Style Taiji masters and gradually came to appreciate and promote the teachings of Grandmaster Hong Junsheng. He has since traveled to China to work directly with senior disciples of Master Hong.

During these years Gordon learned Qi Gong exercises from each master he studied with. We are now proud to be able to say that all of the arts we teach; Yang Taiji, Chen Taiji and Qi Gong are traditional sets learned from highly skilled and respected masters of the arts.
