About Tom

With 27 years of Tai Chi practice I am an ‘inner circle’ student of Master Annukka Holland and a leader in the International Golden Flower Tai Chi School.

The deep knowledge of Tai Chi passing to me from San Gee and Annukka is the synthesis of lineage Tai Chi from two renown Masters – Chu King-Hung and Dong Zheng-Chen.  My focus is on development of health and fitness, inner peace and enlightenment.  I  learn, practice and teach Tai Chi as a method of spiritual development and as an internal martial art system with less focus on fighting/self-defence.  Having made a serious study of Standing Qigong through ongoing daily practice for 20 years, I enjoy practicing an ever broadening variety of forms, exercises, meditations and breathing methods – including 5 Tai Chi Forms, Pushings Hands, Bagua, Hsing-Yi, Weapons and most importantly Being Here Now!

I love working with people and teach full curriculum Golden Flower classes to students up to and beyond instructor level.

I developed a specialism in Qi for mental health as the Khiron Clinics Tai Chi teacher for  12 years.  I am constantly profoundly moved by the resilience of the human spirits I worked with there.

The Golden Flower School is all about self cultivation and I am learning, practicing and teaching practical ways to apply Tai Chi principles to everyday life especially communication, self enquiry and understanding life processes.  I am very hopefull for the ‘flowering of humanity’ and am trying to be the change that I want to see in the world!
