Matt earned the title of Lao She in 2015 from the Wu Dang Nei Jia of D.A.O. His teaching draws from the disciplines of Wu Dang Taijiquan, Baguazhang, Xing Yi Quan, Qi Gong, and Dao Yin, as well as various Meditation systems. His teaching emphasizes increasing kinesthetic intelligence, health and working toward energetic harmonization; integration of physical, energetic, mental and spiritual facets of internal training; and establishing and enhancing Integral transformative practice. After many years of experience with various movement systems from martial arts to dance to juggling, Matt found a profound capacity and ardor for Nei Gong (internal training) and its many and varied sub-disciplines mentioned above, and is dedicated to sharing the internal arts with any and all who can benefit from their practice.
