My primary interest is health and wellbeing. I teach in academic, community and health settings. My primary influences have been Paul Lam's “Tai Chi for Health” and, especially, BK Frantzis' “Energy Arts” (instructor certifications and ongoing study with both since 2003 and 2007 respectively) - and my mainstream career in natural sciences (Professor Emeritus). With a wider background in Japanese, Indian and Iranian martial arts (and Zen, Tibetan and Taoist meditation) and Classical Chinese Medicine, I like to explore shared 'internal' principles in my teaching.
