About us…
At Rising Phoenix T'ai Chi, ALL of our teachers of T'ai Chi and Qi Gong have extensive knowledge, training, and experience with a wide variety of classes and students. We are teachers who believe that this work may have as great an impact on your lives as it has been on ours. We have studied under Master Wei Lun Huang and Master Tseng, and Cate has studied with Master Marilyn Cooper and Master Madam Kuo. We have studied traditional T'ai Chi Ch'uan and Qi Gong, and have been given permission to modify sets to accommodate needs by Master Tseng.
Our Director is Cate Morrill. Our Assistant Director is Harvey Meisner.
Cate began teaching in 1995, at the encouragement of her then Master, Wei Lun Huang. She started with one class, then two, and grew Rising Phoenix T'ai Chi to a program with 7 other teachers leading more than 30 classes per week pre-covid. She and her teachers were able to assist hundreds of students each month with healing and restorative practices. Currently, we are a group of four trained and certified teachers, leading more than 20 classes or workshops each week, continuing to help others see results from the many benefits of T'ai Chi and Qi Gong.
Teaching a variety of Qi Gong sets, we keep movements growing, interest flowing, and our energy glowing!
Please see our page “Who we are, and why we are here” for details about our teachers, and a general idea of our studies.
We are also pleased to have other teachers and associates with diverse backgrounds and talents to assist and teach classes with us. ALL of our TC and QG teachers have undergone years of intensive T'ai Chi and Qi Gong training and are also CPR Certified! All teachers who hold classes in our studio are experts, or certified, or have extensive, reputable experience teaching in their field.
