I have been teaching adults and children for over 20 years in America, the Netherlands, Nepal, and Taiwan. I am currently under the tutelage of Master Joe Nelson. Joe Nelson is the founder of Tengu House. Merging his martial art expertise with his medical knowledge, Joe embodies the ancient ways of true martial arts and healing, bringing these practices together in today's modern world to help his students and patients realize their true potential externally and internally. His accomplishments in both the world of healing and fighting follow the ancient tradition of acupuncturists who were both physicians and warriors.

Internal Martial Arts Joe is on the forefront of the scientific application of internal martial arts to medical issues. Joe developed a Tai Chi & Chi Kung program for Parkinson’s disease patients that was proven in a federally funded study to reduce falls, one of the leading causes of death in seniors and a significant issue for Parkinson’s patients. After 3 months of participation in the study, patients were found 18 times less likely to fall than the control group who did not participate in classes. Joe’s program was cited in 25 academic publications. External Martial Arts Joe uses his 40+ years of martial arts training with the best masters in the world in Tae Kwon Do, Filipino Kali, Western boxing, Muay Thai kickboxing, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and wrestling to bring to both kids and adults the most effective techniques in a safe environment.
