I am completely new to Tai Chi and the last 3 months has been a wonderful journey into hopefully, a life long practice. After being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, I have tried many things to improve my health. Nothing compares to Tai Chi, it has been an incredible tool for me to manage my stress, fatigue, balance problems and mental focus. Tai Chi has given me the ability to calm down my nervous system within a few minutes. I am blessed to have met all the wonderful people at Tai Chi Vancouver. Master Liu is an honorable and caring mentor. Each week he makes an adjustment and I can feel the difference in my system immediately. Master Liu’s assistants have been extremely attentive, kind, informative and patient. Their knowledge and passion for this discipline is inspiring.

I have been studying Tai Chi here for almost 3 years. It is the real Tai Chi I was always looking for. The postures are not just postures, they develop the interior Qi (energy) when practising. Master Liu is a very good Tai Chi teacher. And I already began to study pushing hands recently!
I've been with Master Liu learning this unique ancient style of Taichi for many years. It has improved vastly my overall health and energy level. My sense of alertness of surrounding has also been greatly improved. If you're looking for an original ancient style of Taichi forms that have not been simplified, this is the place!
I have practiced martial arts for over 20 years and I understand what it means to be martial. My original thoughts on Tai Chi were based solely on watching people doing forms in the park. I thought that it was too soft and couldn’t possibly be an effective system of self-defence. When I turned 60 years old, I physically couldn’t take the rigors of a hard style martial art but I did want to continue learning and practicing the martial way. My wife encouraged me to try Tai Chi. I started to look at the different styles of Tai Chi and just happened upon Yuan Shi Tai Ji Quan Dao (“YSTJQD”). I know that a martial art school is only as good as the head instructor and after reading Master Liu’s bio I instantly knew that this was a school worth considering. If you are worried that this style is not martial, don’t be, it is martial in all respects. The first time Master Liu shows you a practical application and throws you, you will be convinced. But beyond the physical aspects of YSTJQD, the health benefits are hard to deny. Years of taking hard ukeme resulted in a bad back with a herniated disk between L5 & L6. This has plagued me since 2010. After 6 months of instruction from Master Liu and consistent home practice my back problem started to go away and after 12 months I no longer wake up in the middle of the night because of back pain or get up in the morning with a stiff back. Master Liu is an extremely patient and talented instructor. YSTJQD is an effective martial art and the health benefits are outstanding. In such a short period, Taiji has made a huge impact on my life both physically and mentally. I am back actively playing sports again and I feel much more focused and balanced. Finally, I would like to thank Master Liu for taking me on as a student and for his generosity.
It's the best exercise I have ever tried and really worth to persist in. It helps with both my health and energy level.
