Coach profile

Hello.  ​My name is Michi Sato.  I am the founder and principal coach of Traditional Wu Taichi School "Taikyoku no Komichi."

​

After learning Taichi Quan in Japan (24 forms and Chen Style),  I relocated to Singapore to start my own business.  I encountered my master in 2014 and started learning Wu Style Taichi Quan.

​

Through group lessons as well as over 750 hours of private lessons, I learnt  Taichi routines and Push Hand in quite some depth.  My master conducted 9 rounds of corrections on my routines.  

​

In 2019, I was assigned as a coach for group lessons.  In 2020, I got my first private lesson student and provided a tailor-made syllabus based on the student's requirements.

​

One of my private lesson students suffered Parkinson's disease and could not move smoothly.  Through continuous lessons of basic exercises, his walking improved a lot.  This experience made me start thinking how I could help people to have a healthier life by learning Taichi Quan.  Then, I came up with the school mission, "Let's train your mind and body to walk by your own legs till 100 years old".

Unlike many other Taichi instructors in Japan, I can teach both in Japanese and in English.
