Hi, I'm Joe, and I've been training in martial arts
for over 25 years, especially in Tai Chi styles.

I offer lessons in my favorite form:
Yang Style [24 movement simplified],
and for those who wish to continue,
Chen Style [Feng's 48].

My classes also include exercises from
other styles for variety and balence.
I emphasize strong basics, and a well rounded
understanding, including applications.
