I love and enjoy people (and animals). It is my honor, joy to be a part of - and witness to - the transformation of and self-empowerment people discover when they learn and practice qigong healing movements and meditation. I enjoy seeing and aiding in the relief, ease, relaxation, and opening to more capability, freedom, and joyfulness through qigong classes. I enjoy when people have their pets 'in class' online. Animals have an innate intuition and energetic sensitivity - they KNOW it's time to relax and soak in the healing energy that is being cultivated. I look forward to meeting and serving you.

How did you get started teaching?
Apparently a 'natural born' teacher, I started by teaching my friends and many neighbors how to do cartwheels as an active, happy child. Later, as a business owner with a sales and marketing background, I taught employess how to serve customers needs with professionalism and care. I began studying and practicing Spring Forest Qigong to transform my health in the year 2000. SFQ creator and founder Master Chunyi Lin asked me to be one of his staff instructors in 2008 because of my skills and the great tranformation that qigong spurred in my body and life. (As anactive grandmother, I still enjoy teaching - and doing cartwheels!)
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with students from age 8-108 from widely varied backgrounds, and in every stage of health. I instruct and encourage beginning, intermediate, and advanced qigong students as well as many other holistic and energy healers.
