Chen styles of Tai Chi, along with many Chi gung systems at various schools
across the country. He is also currently working towards a master’s degree in
physical therapy at the University of Texas at El Paso. As a former state and
national push hands champion, as well as having taught in settings such as
physical rehabilitation, with senior citizens and the general population for
the past 8 years, Louie has found the practice of Tai Chi and Chi Gung to be
immensely beneficial in helping to create a more balanced and vigorous state of
health, well being, and athletic capacity.
I would like to extend this invitation to explore a wonderful form of exercise,
meditation and self defense which has helped to make the lives of millions of
people healthy and vibrant.
