From the reviews
Great class, great teacher, he’s methodical and practices form very well and thoroughly, as well as sword and staff, and elements of qigong within the style. Which qigong is very important for actual body health and dynamics.
Sifu Greg is a wealth of knowledge and very patient. I have found the skills taught have helped me be a better person. I would highly recommend this school to anyone interested in learning from one of the elite.
Studying Bagua with Sifu Greg is time well spent. I love the fact that I can meditate, improve cardio, increase flexibility and balance, harness chi energy, and learn self-defense all in one class. I am so happy I ended up HERE rather than a "punch and kick" school.
Great schools are the result of great teachers and great students. The Chinese Boxing Academy has all of these components. Great place to learn an art that you can improve and work on for a lifetime, keeping yourself and/or making yourself healthy in body, mind and spirit in the process.
Your first tai chi class at Chinese Boxing Academy
Nervous about walking into a tai chi class for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good instructors expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a gentle warm-up, then learning a few slow movements of the form, step by step — no pressure to get it perfect, and you can rest or sit whenever you need to. What to wear: loose, comfortable clothing you can move in, and flat, flexible shoes (some studios practice in socks or bare feet). What to bring: water, and that's about it — there's no equipment to buy. Arrive a few minutes early to say hello to the instructor and mention it's your first class. It comes together faster than you'd think — most people feel far more at ease by their second or third visit.
