Seeking Tai Chi

I was searching for Tai Chi lessons for my 74-year-old father when I came across Gang and his many glowing reviews. At the time, my father was in a difficult mental space, he was stubborn, resistant, and dealing with persistent aches and pains. I knew it would take someone exceptionally patient and compassionate to help him feel at ease and stay committed to something new.

Eight classes later, my father has this to say:

“Gang is a remarkably patient and attentive instructor. He explains things in a way that’s easy to understand, and I feel completely comfortable asking questions—even ones I might think are silly. He truly wants to help and makes sure you’re doing the movements correctly.
I was hesitant to try Tai Chi. Maybe because of the stigma that it’s just for older people or that it might be boring, but I was wrong. There are different styles and movements suited for everyone, regardless of age or ability.
Even the simplest movements I learned early on have made a real difference. I now look forward to each class. I find myself naturally incorporating Tai Chi into my daily routine—relaxing my upper torso, shifting weight into my lower body, or bending my knees to relieve pressure on my lower back. These small changes have significantly improved how I feel physically, and that’s positively affected my mental outlook as well.
I feel more energized. Sometimes even an adrenaline rush when practicing certain stances and I’m excited to keep learning. Even though I haven’t mastered all the movements, just trying has already made me feel better, both physically and mentally.
For anyone who might be hesitant, or thinking the way I once did, I encourage you to attend a class and give it a try.”

Gang has truly made a difference in my father’s life, and for that, I’m deeply grateful.

Master Gang is truly a gem of a Taichi teacher — the kind that is rare to find.
He has a deep mastery of both the anatomical mechanics and the philosophy behind Taichi, combined with a highly trained eye for spotting and correcting students' mistakes. For me, that made a huge difference in my Taichi journey.
In almost two years of learning with him, I feel I finally started to grasp the foundational principles of Taichi practice — something that had felt elusive before.
I wholeheartedly recommend both Taichi and Master Gang as a teacher to anyone interested. It's not easy to find someone who can truly guide you in the fundamentals: correcting your postures, refining your forms, and nurturing the meditative mindset that is so essential to real Taichi practice.

Mr. Gang Huang is a dedicated Tai Chi instructor. He cares about the form, discipline, and the art of Tai Chi. It is my privilege to have known this practice, and I sincerely hope Master can continue and grow his practice in the years to come. I wish to add that there is good energy and you can experience that in his practice; no gimmicks.

Gang Huang is both a master of tai chi and a masterful teacher, which has allowed me to bring the joy of tai chi into my life. Learning from him is so much more than a class about the mechanics of forms. Instead, he brings a true understanding of the experience, which gives much more meaning to what these movements represent. I highly recommend Gang Huang to anyone wishing to learn tai chi, at any age or fitness or experience level. (I wish I could give this rating more than 5 stars!)

I've been taking classes at Seeking Tai Chi for several months now, and it's been a wonderful experience. Gang Huang is an excellent instructor, and I feel fortunate to have found him. He teaches not just forms and movements, but also the wisdom and philosophy that inform the practice of Tai Chi. If you give it your full effort, the class can be very challenging, but each student is encouraged to advance at their own pace. Gang offers a great deal of personal attention and creates a friendly, relaxed atmosphere. I especially appreciate the way he makes everyone, of any age, fitness level, and experience feel welcome. I find myself looking forward to class each week and leaving with a feeling of renewed energy and well-being.
