Vicki Tai Chi

Learn the gentle art of Tai Chi with Vicki Zhao, a certified Master Tai Chi and Qigong instructor.
Certified Holistic Nutritionist and Holistic Health Practitioner, certified in First Aid, CPR, and AED use.

Tai Chi and Qigong are time-tested practices that support whole-body health. Together, they help reduce stress, improve mobility and balance, ease pain, and enhance mental clarity, to name a few.

While both practices promote healing and vitality, Tai Chi and Qigong work differently in the body. Tai Chi is often described as “meditation in motion,” emphasizing continuous, flowing movements. Qigong focuses more on breath, intention, and gentle movement to guide the flow of Qi. For best result, learning at least one of each is highly recommanded.

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.
