I was drawn to Tai Chi seeking a knowledge of moving meditation. As I am an ordained monk of an ancient yogic discipline, I sought a high caliber teacher. I was searching for a teacher who could teach and demonstrate the inner philosophy as well as the outer forms of Tai Chi. I found such a teacher in Dr. Daniel Hoover. I was part of, and observed him teach, groups of up to 60 people in all levels, ages and abilities, the science and art of Tai Chi and Qi Gong. Each person received what they needed to grow in these ancient techniques. Dr Hoover is able to provide both individual attention and form progressive groups for advanced students. His certification course gave me a foundation that I will be building on from now forward. Learning the approaches each student entered with, was revealing as to how all encompassing and expansive this art is. As he brought us together, we were able to help and encourage each other. The teachers that assist Dr Hoover in this course are an added gem in this training. His teaching style enables each student to grow at their own pace. He imparts both enthusiasm and patience in his students. What amazed me was seeing Dr Hoover lead a large group of people in all levels and each person is able to follow him. A whole group moving together. Truly a gift to experience. His guidance has expanded my calling as a woman monastic. I now have enough proficiency to lead a group in a moving meditation. I have both martial artists, dancers and limited ability students in the same class. Dr Hoover has enabled me to offer this free meditation class as a way of paying it forward in my monastic practice. I am truly grateful. I would recommend this program to anyone who wishes to enrich and expand their life experience. Regardless of age, gender, ability or reason for entering the program, I would recommend doing this. I am very thankful I did. Respectfully, Janine Ma Li
