Andrew teaches the full martial art curriculum of Wudang Tai Chi Chuan as passed down through the lineage of the infamous full-contact lei tai fighter Master Cheng Tin Hung or Zheng Tianxiong (1930–2005). One of his top European students and fighters, the late Daniel Docherty, pioneered the introduction of this style into the UK and Europe. There are five main popular styles of Tai Chi, namely Wu, Yang, Chen, Hao, and Sun. Wudang Tai Chi Chuan is more closely related to the Wu and Yang styles. Wudang Tai Chi Chuan still retains the secretive Neikung iron body conditioning practices famed for optimizing overall health, conditioning the physique, and developing martial skill.

Andrew initially trained under the late Dan Docherty (1954-2021) and was an inside-the-door student receiving the more advanced internal teachings of the style. Following this, he trained under his senior student Stuart Verity. For the last 10 years, he has continued training under one of the best proponents of the style in Europe, Shifu Neil Rosiak, assisting in his London class. Shifu Neil Rosiak continues to receive direct tutelage from the son of Chen Tin Hung. Andrew is registered as an Advanced instructor with the Tai Chi Union of Great Britain.

Traveling to China on multiple occasions, Andrew has had the opportunity to meet and receive training in the ancient esoteric meditation traditions rarely known and encountered in the West or East. He continues to be under tutelage through his contacts. Andrew continues to compete and has maintained Gold medal level status for many years at a national and European level.

Andrew is an Advanced Practice physiotherapist with over 20 years of experience and often helps resolve training problems for current Tai Chi practitioners or helps those with chronic conditions take back control of their physicality. Andrew has also trained in Chinese acupressure massage called Tui Na.

Tai Chi tuition is available on a one-to-one basis only. If you want colored belts and white pajamas, you will be disappointed. If you want to experience the reality of true Tai Chi Chuan training and take your body back to its blueprint, then start your journey.
