Originally from Moscow, Russia, at the age of 21 I was diagnosed with cancer of the blood and given six months to live. Out of desperation, I turned from traditional medicine to Chinese medicine, Tai Chi and Chi Kung. Miraculously, after several months, I was given a clean bill of health. My life saving experience led me to travel to China, Thailand and Europe in a search of a deeper understanding of the power of body and mind. I have learned eastern philosophies and the ancient practice of Tai Chi and Chi Kung; I haven’t seen a doctor since.
Since that time, practice of Tai Chi and Chi Kung has become a part of my life. I’ve been teaching and practicing Tai Chi and Chi Kung for over 20 years. And I am happy to share this ancient practice with you.
Now I am not only happy to be alive, I am actually happy to be myself and I want the same for you. I want you to be thrilled to be you; thrilled to wake up in your life every day.
