Fetyko Family School of Tai Chi

Specialties

It is our mission to ground our students in Qigong (energy work), and Chan Si Gong (silk reeling work) which is the root of Taijiquan. We continue our own training with the Masters and Grand Masters, especially the Chen Family, so we can bring the best taichi teaching to our students.

My wife, Angel Chen Fetyko is from Guang Dong China and has been studying Taijiquan for eleven years and has been teaching with me for the past six years. We teach most classes together.

My first teacher was Master Liu yu of San Luis Obispo, California. Master Liu yu was on a professional team in China when she was nine years old and is currently a formal disciple of Grand Master Chen Xiaowang. I took private lessons with her for several years. She encouraged me to compete at the Western Regional Championships at Berkley University. I eventually won gold medals in the Yang advanced category and silver medals in the Chen Form. My next teacher was Master Shu Dong Li. Master Li is from Henan, China, a sacred place of Martial Arts where both the oldest Chen style Taijiquan and Shaolin Gong Fu originated. I studied the Chen Style Tiejiquan, Lao Jia Yi Lu, and a sword form and Qigong with Master Li for several years. Master Li formally certified me as a qualified instructor in the Yang and Chen styles. I also studied for a year with Master Jiaming Gao in Portland Oregon. I consider myself only a humble dedicated student and will continue to study for the rest of my life.
