Before becoming a teacher

I was a student.

Before becoming a champion, Naxo was a student. Traveling internationally to train, he spent years on the most demanding competition stages in the world.

That journey taught him that Tai Chi is transmitted person to person — and that the best teaching comes from having walked the same path.
