Steven W Moore
Steven took up Tai Chi Chuan under Grand Master John Kells of the BTCCA (British Tai Chi Chuan Association) in 1984 whilst still a PhD student in London. Within six months he had devoted himself to it full-time. He started teaching in 1987 and in 1992 was granted the title Master of Tai Chi Chuan. From 1996 to 2006 he was the senior student and principle instructor of the BTCCA, and primary research assistant to Dr Kells. In 1999 he opened his own Tai Chi school at the Round Chapel in London. In 2001 he moved with his teacher to the Forest of Dean in Gloucestershire to research the deep principles of Heartwork. Whilst there he travelled frequently to London and to Cork in Ireland to conduct Heartwork seminars. Each seminar confirmed his conviction that the vitality and openness of Heartwork combined with the rigour and grace of Tai Chi is a potent method for transformation. He started his blog in 2005. In 2007 he moved to Tel Aviv to live with his partner Ronit Adar and to study rooting with Nitsan Michaeli.
