PEGGY LI
Qigong and Tai Ji Senior Instructor, Center Co-Director, all-around Girl Friday, and Energy Worker, Ms. Li brings to clients and students a multidisciplinary understanding of energy and the human body, developed over 35 years as student, practitioner, and teacher of Asian healing arts (nutrition, bodywork, and exercise).
Peggy studied oriental massage (shiatsu and reflexology) with many teachers, including the acclaimed shiatsu teacher Shizuko Yamamoto and reflexologist May Post, and graduated from the Baltimore School of Massage and the Eden Energy Medicine Certification Program.
“My mission is to empower clients and students by sharing how to take care of ourselves--body and mind. There are no limits to the harmony and strength we can create within ourselves.”
In 1985, she discovered and fell in love with tai ji and qigong. Two years later, she met and began learning with her principal teacher (now husband) Nianzu Li. Her previous training in body awareness disciplines included hatha yoga, bioenergetics, breathing practices, and the Alexander Technique. She has taught qi exercise for the University of Maryland, for Family Therapy Network Symposiums, other organizations, and for the center since 1992.
