About Us

The Tai Chi and Qi Gong Healing Institute (TQHI) is a non-profit organization committed to promoting health and improving quality of life by helping people identify and strengthen their own internal energy or Chi

TQHI was established in January, 1998 by Dr. Aihan Kuhn. In October 2001, it became a non-profit organization with 5 directors and many volunteers. Since then TQHI has organized many activities to create a positive influence in people's lives.

Our intention is to provide education and training on the use of the Chinese healing exercises like Tai Chi and Qi Gong for preventing illness and injury, increasing health and longevity, reducing violence in our society, and decreasing stress. Accordingly, we also conduct research to determine the health benefits that can be achieved.

Through education, practice and understanding of traditional Chinese healing exercises, TQHI strives to:

• Promote research on the use of Traditional Chinese Medicine through scientific inquiry. TQHI researches the effects of Chinese exercise combined with western medical protocols for patients with chronic diseases and the diseases for which Western Medicine has no cure.

• Improve physical and psychological health and wellness through Daoist teaching and educations as well as Chinese Healing exercise.

• Assist adolescents to develop self-discipline, self-confidence, mental focus and concentration.

We are continually looking for volunteers to serve our mission and help us reach our goals.
