Shima Holly - Qigong & TaiChi Instructor

I have studied Daoist Arts intensely since 2013, kicking off that New Year by answering a friend’s repeated request to attend a Tai Chi class. I never imagined the experience would be life changing. After just one class, I knew it was the right path and started on my journey of personal cultivation. What began with Tai Chi has expanded to include various Daoist teachings such as Qigong (internal energy work), Meditation and healing arts. I have experienced many positive changes through my exploration of Daoism. I now look at things from different perspectives, leave myself open to new ideas and listen within for the answers. As a being I have become gentler, more observant and have greater control over my emotions. I have greater flexibility, increased vitality and a bit of grace. I'm also blessed to have the support of my family who witnessed my process firsthand. We've grown much closer by navigating difficult situations with positive attitudes.

I am honored to have great teachers. DaoShima Susan, who helps light the path, but never leads the way; knows everyone’s journey is unique. She has spent many hours with me, patiently sharing her knowledge, wisdom and experience as we work through choreography, breath and the polish associated with each form. I also study with Master Zhongxian Wu, a Master of several lineages, delving into Daoism’s Shamanic roots through Meditation, Qigong, Five Element Theory, BaGua and I Ching. - Shima Holly
