About Us

Sifu Paul Drake began studying T'ai Chi Ch'uan in 1985 under the tutelage of Grandmaster Tung Kai Ying in Los Angeles. A heritage of his famous grandfather, Tung Ying Chieh, and of his father, Tung Hu Ling, the Tung style of T'ai Chi Ch'uan is well known in China.

Paul began teaching in Los Angeles in 1993 and, in 1996, moved to New Hampshire where he has conducted classes in Concord, Plymouth, Laconia, and, now, Littleton. Paul has appeared in push-hands demonstrations with Grandmaster Tung in China (1999) and with the Grandmaster's son, Master Tung Chen Wei, in Hong Kong (2006).

Many former students are now teachers themselves.
