Australian Academy of Tai Chi 

The Australian Academy of Tai Chi & Qigong was established in 1976 by Grandmaster Gary Khor.  From the beginning, his approach was that Chinese health arts were treasures that should be disclosed to the world in practicable and useful ways, thus helping to improve the quality of people’s lives.

Over 100,000 students have since passed through our doors, discovering the delights and benefits of Tai Chi, Qigong and other associated arts.  The Academy’s focus was, and still is, on the teaching of Tai Chi from a health and relaxation perspective suitable for the average person.  (So many Tai Chi schools have since followed the same approach that this concept now seems common-place).

The Academy is not resting there.  Special programs based on traditional Chinese exercises are being produced for those with asthma, arthritis, osteoporosis, low mobility and other conditions; more books are in production, new networks of instructors are being established, as are web based services.
