Simon playing push-hands with Sean during Tai Chi class in LincolnSimon first started Tai Chi in 2006 to ‘try out’ Martial Arts, thinking he could always try out something more interesting if it didn’t work out. Fortunately for Simon, it did work out, and he has since enjoyed both the physical and emotional benefits Tai Chi offers, in all aspects of his life.

Working as a Finance Manager for a national charity can be reasonably stressful on occasions but Tai Chi has enabled Simon to manage these stresses more easily. In order to help others at the charity to benefit in the same way, Simon started teaching Tai Chi at his place of work in 2011. The awareness of alignment and structure in the body which Tai Chi teaches, has meant Simon has been able to reduce his visits for Acupuncture and Chiropractic and meant his other interest – running – has been almost injury free since he started learning Tai Chi.
