Vicki Tai Chi

Certified Master Tai Chi Teacher

Certified Master Qigong Teacher

Certified HolisticWellness & Nutrition Practitioner

Certified in First Aid, CPR and AED

In addition to teaching Chinese language and culture, I am deeply passionate about helping people achieve healthy and fulfilling lives through a holistic approach and Traditional Chinese Medicine. I began studying Tai Chi and Qigong during my college years in China and have over 13 years of experience teaching these practices across various states in the U.S.

My holistic health consultations focus on establishing a healthy lifestyle, promoting natural healing through nutritious foods and appropriate supplementation, as well as incorporating home remedies and self-administered meridian treatments. In today’s world, many people are often overexposed to antibiotics, medications, and unnecessary surgeries. However, when you understand that food is your best medicine and that nature offers an abundance of healing herbs, you begin to feel empowered. The human body is inherently designed to heal itself; our role is to provide the support it needs. Embracing a holistic approach is the most effective path to achieving lasting health and well-being.

Numerous studies have demonstrated that Tai Chi and Qigong are effective treatments for a variety of conditions, including anxiety, depression, arthritis, osteoporosis, pain, memory loss, and more. The health benefits of these practices are remarkable, and best of all—they are easy to learn and accessible to people of all ages and fitness levels.

Tai Chi class vs Qigong Class

Tai Chi and Qigong are time-tested practices known for their powerful impact on health and well-being. Together, they offer a wide range of benefits that can last a lifetime, including:

Reduced stress and anxiety
Pain relief and improved mobility
Enhanced memory and cognitive function
Stronger organ and digestive function
Nervous system support
Increased flexibility and balance
Faster recovery after illness or surgery

While both practices promote healing and vitality, Tai Chi and Qigong work differently on the body. For optimal results, learning at least one of each is highly recommended.
Tai Chi Program Overview
Learn a mosr popular form of Tai Chi regardless your fitness level in just 12 sessions/hours.
Qigong Program Overview
A set of classic Qigong can be learned in only six sessions/hours.
With less movements, Qigong is generally easier than Tai Chi and it is for all ages.

What is it like to go to Vicki for holistic health consultation?

The initial 1.5-hour session is dedicated to a comprehensive assessment of your health and lifestyle, allowing us to gain a complete understanding of your unique needs. In the following session, we will set personalized goals and develop an individualized plan tailored to your well-being. This plan may include lifestyle adjustments, dietary changes, and other holistic strategies aimed at improving your health. Throughout your journey, I will provide ongoing support and guidance to help you achieve your goals. While some clients experience immediate improvements, others may see gradual progress over time. You will acquire valuable knowledge and practical skills that empower you to take control of your health and foster lasting well-being.

I've been looking for a Tai Chi leader for a while to continue my training and I'm so happy to have found Vickie. She is a great instructor, she's patient, and willing to review as much as needed. I've completed level 1 and am looking forward to level 2. I do highly recommend Vickie as your instructor for Tai Chi or Qigong.

Vicki is a knowledgeable and patient teacher of Tai Chi. I took her class to learn the 24-form Tai Chi sequence. Vicki understands the best way to teach the movements: first get the basics, then slowly shape the form over time into more correct movements. Having feedback from an in-person teacher is crucial to learning the right way.
