Our Story

The journey behind Original Yin Qi Gong GYM began in the heart of Vancouver, where I discovered the transformative essence of Tai Chi during a particularly stressful chapter of my life. Seeking refuge from the chaos, I stumbled upon an ancient school of thought that emphasized not just physical health but also mental clarity and emotional resilience. This realization drove me to immerse myself in the study of Yin Qi Gong, and as I connected more deeply with this practice, I felt the calling to share its benefits with others. Starting small, I gathered a handful of friends and neighbors in a local park, encouraging them to explore the fluid movements and breathing techniques that I had come to cherish. The community's response was overwhelmingly positive; it was clear that this wasn’t just about exercise, but about creating a mindful space where individuals could nurture both body and spirit. This organic growth inspired the establishment of Original Yin Qi Gong GYM, a space dedicated to cultivating a supportive environment that honors the lineage of this art while inviting modern practitioners to engage with it meaningfully. My aim has always been to create a haven for anyone, regardless of background or experience, to find solace and strength within themselves through the practice of Tai Chi.
