"I have been practicing Tai Chi for several years before I started taking
classes at Orange County Tai Chi Studio. When I met Master Bing Luh,
I started to understand what Tai Chi is really about.  When I saw him
showing me Tai Chi movement for the first time, I realized right away
that my teacher's knowledge and control of inner energy is exceptional. 
Master Bing Luh is sharing this ancient treasure of Tai Chi with real passion
and honesty."

"I began Tai Chi classes with Master Luh to regain my flexibility and
range of motion I had issues with my ankle, leg, and neck.  After just weeks,
I felt much stronger.  The added benefit was that I felt much less stress
and more clear of spirit and mind."

"Tai Chi has increased my flexability and balance since I started a
couple of years ago.  I also enjoy the peaceful atmosphere that is
part of Tai Chi.  I recommend it to everyone, and it's never too late."

“Stress triggers suffering--physical, emotional, and spiritual.  Bing Luh's
approach to tai chi--a combination of gentle movement, meditation,
stretching, and mental focus--is the solution.  I love Bing's reverential
yet light-hearted approach to sharing this ancient practice.  Thanks to
Bing, I'm more flexible, physically and emotionally, and more balanced. 
Bing is the ideal teacher for the newcomer to tai chi.  He is a treasure
in my life and the tai chi practice he has given me is a source of emotional
strength and calm.  Call him today and get going on the journey of a lifetime.”

--Michael Levin, business owner, Irvine

“I began Tai Chi training for the purpose of stress relief.  I have found
the classes to be very useful, providing me with stress relief techniques
I use daily.  In particular, the deep breathing techniques have been very
useful and enlightening.  After about 6 months of training I received
unsolicited comments from several business colleagues saying they had
noticed a difference in me and wanting to know what I had been doing
to gain such new calmness!  As an extra bonus, my balance and flexibility
have also both improved.”

"Before I started to learn Tai Chi, I had a weak left ankle that resulted from an accident some years ago. I have to wear a brace from time to time whenever I over-exert my ankle.  After practicing Tai Chi for 6 months, I realized my ankle muscles were stronger and I do not need to wear the brace anymore.  Tai Chi has not only strengthened my weak muscles, but also helps me to relax physically and mentally by applying its deep breathing and meditation technique.”

To me Tai Chi has been quite a good experience, my stamina has gone up.  I feel much better everyday due to any increased energy.  I enjoy learning the beautiful movement and appreciate Mr. Bing Luh teaching and this way of life.

Through the practice of Tai chi I was able to improve the mobility on my left knee,
(I was not able to bend my left knee from a soccer injury 30 years ago). it took me
about 8 months of exercise in Tai Chi but finally I was able to bend my legs.  I reduced
my weight (15 pounds), and my high blood pressure from 165 to 140, and I have also
increased my energy stamina to allow walking for a longer time without feeling tired, so
it has been a great improvement on my health.

I am a Chinese.  At young age, my father taught me the horse stance.  With busy life style of raising family and running a family engineering business, my health deteriate to a point of no return.  Through friends and family member, I found Master Bing Luh to teach me Tai Chi Chuan.  In the beginning I got up 5:00 am every morning and practiced the warm up exercise, breathing/meditation and 24 forms.  After one year of intensive practicing, I show Master Luh a video of me practicing the 24 forms, he realized that I had memorized the forms and beginning to train me with classical style of Tai Chi Chuan instead of Tai Chi exercise.


Tai Chi Chuan combines intense mental focus with deliberate, graceful movements that I improve strength, agility and balance.

Practitioners praise Tai Chi Chuan's spiritual and psychological benefits, but what has attracted the attention of my family members lately is what Tai Chi Chuan does for my health and whole being.  In many ways, I am catching up to what tens of millions of people in China and Chinatowns and the rest of the world already known about Tai Chi Chuan.


There are several styles of Tai Chi Chuan, but most of them start with a series of controlled movements, or forms, with names like Grasping the Sparrow's Tail and Repulse the Monkey.  
It took a few months for the effects to kick in, but when they do they can act as a gateway to a new lifestyle.  Once I start feeling better, I become more active on my daily life,  In deed, I totally enjoy a new interesting lifestyle.  Now, I am working as a certified Tai Chi/Fitness instructor.


Any form of exercise, of course, can do only so much. Tai Chi Chuan will not be the end-all, but Tai Chi plus walking would be a very good mixture. Younger people probably need more of an aerobic challenge, but they can benefit from Tai Chi's capacity to reduce stress like what I had achieved. 
The best thing about Tai Chi Chuan is that I enjoy it, so it is more likely that I’ll stick with it long enough to get the benefit.  It helps when something that's good for me is also fun.

I had sprained my ankle several years ago and had at times experienced pain, since practicing Tai Chi I have not had any ankle pain. My knees, legs and arms are stronger and my body on a whole is more flexible. I really enjoy learning Tai-Chi from Bing, his knowledge of and enthusiasm for Tai Chi make it fun!
