On-line Tai Chi and meditation classes with Master George is one of the highlights of my week, especially with all the stress in the world right now. I feel centered, refreshed, and energized after class. George is encouraging and an excellent teacher! I think everyone would benefit from his teachings either on-line or in person!

I started Tai Chi classes with George King several years ago. The practice has helped me with balance and opened my mind to the concept of energy and connectedness. I will continue this unique journey into the future.

I have taken Tai Chi and meditation lessons from George for several years, and he is very knowledgeable and well-studied. His understanding of Qi energy enables him to help others work towards their inner peace. My balance has improved with Tai Chi practice, and I plan on continuing to work on Tai Chi and meditation with George.
