Portland Tai Chi Academy is dedicated to sharing the benefits of the martial arts and meditation with our community. My Martial Arts journey started over 35 years ago and I hold Nationally certifications in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, Muay Thai, Western Boxing, Eskrima, Tai chi and Qigong."I am most passionate about helping people reach levels they never thought possible. Martial arts are great for fitness and overall health, but the biggest and most fulfilling changes I have seen throughout the years is witnessing hundreds of students change their lives through this training. They become more confident, enthusiastic, increase their self-discipline and desire to better themselves." I started teaching in 1988. Portland Tai Chi Academy has an 8000 sq foot facility with two classrooms, a weight room, shower rooms. We have an incredible community that is positive, supportive and always here to help.
