About the Teacher

Adam began practicing Tai-Chi in the hope that he could relieve his chronic neck pain and possibly gain magical powers. Thankfully he found the class of Dave Spencer and Brian Woodruff who quickly disabused him of the notion of magical powers but opened his eyes to the true meaning and potential of Tai-Chi.

He spent the next 12 years pursuing this new found love of Tai-Chi, training under the auspices of the Zhong-Ding martial arts association, an international organisation set up by Nigel Sutton. He has competed in National Competitions, trained extensively with masters in both in the UK and Malaysia, which he has visited on numerous occasions (once completing a 70hr training marathon, 10hrs a day for 7 days, and on the last occasion living with Nigel Sutton for 3 months training with local masters). He holds an Advanced Instructor level qualification with both Zhong-Ding and the Tai-Chi Union of Great Britain.

Adam is also a qualified Yoga teacher with the British Wheel of Yoga and the only person outside of Malaysia and Thailand to receive the complete transmission of the White Tiger system of traditional Muay-Thai kickboxing taught by Guru Zainal Abidin (click link and scroll down page slightly to see his bio).
