About Me

In short words, I define my path as the beginner mind. I love to teach but always be open to learning, without fear of changing the way I think or feel.
I think I have some good values to share, I ask myself, how can I do it? my native language is my natural skill, and I love it, so why not share this knowledge? and Tai Chi Chuan is my life, in this path every single day I found something new or something where I need to work, is not only a martial art, this is a way to live. so why not share something that is so powerful? The answer is: Just do it!

There are various accents that make Spanish sound very different from country to country. It is a very different experience to listen to somebody with the accent and intonation of an Argentine than to a Spaniard from Madrid. The Spanish of Nicaragua is also different from that of Chile or Bolivia. I will teach you the kind of Spanish language that will be understood by all. I utilize an effective pedagogy and adapt each lesson to your individual needs. I have had the chance to teach all ages here in the United States, as an academic teacher and as a private instructor.

Hi, I'm Zalán! My journey through the world of martial arts began at the age of 15. Starting with Krav Maga, I ventured into Philippine martial arts, which I still practice today. I then explored urban combatics before falling in love with the serene art of Yang Style Tai Chi Chuan. My daily practice of Tai Chi, complemented by Qigong and Neigong, has profoundly impacted my life. The balance, tranquility, and holistic benefits it offers have inspired me to share this art with others. Join me on a journey to discover the profound benefits of Yang Style Tai Chi Chuan. Whether you're a seasoned martial artist or new to the world of martial arts, I welcome you to explore the artistry and well-being it brings to our lives.

Art History course, History of the Art Market, cultural mediation, conservation-restoration techniques for works of art.
- Art History courses are intended for all audiences and all levels. From Pre-History to Contemporary Art, teaching of artistic trends and pictorial techniques. - The History of the Art Market courses are more intended for people interested in the functioning of cultural structures (museum, fair, gallery, private collections, etc.) and in the economics of the market (auctions , fairs, international markets, ...). - The cultural mediator is responsible for welcoming the public in a cultural structure, his mission is to present artistic works or actions by providing keys to understanding. It awakens the interest of the visitor by creating a dialogue around the artist, his message, the conditions of realization of the work, etc. This requires solid knowledge of Art History, and oral fluency. - The techniques of conservation and restoration of works of art are studied in a few sessions. They require basic knowledge of materials, supports and techniques.

Online Private Yoga and Meditation class (taught in English)
As distance learning is growing fast worldwide, people are getting used to online classes and a wide variety of skills are introduced virtually. Although it is sometimes farfetched to learn some sports and exercises online, yoga is one of those exercises which can be taught online easily. Because to practice yoga, you just a mat or sometimes yoga blocks and belt. Also, yoga postures are changed slowly one after another during the exercise and learners' injury risk will decrease during the online class, and the teacher has adequate time to accurate the learner's posture and breathing. If someone has not experienced yoga yet or suffers from pain, an online class will a good option. In my online classes: - Feel free to invite your spouse, partner, or friend to the class! - prepare a yoga mat

Using a range of disciplines from martial arts, to acting techniques, to voice and breath work, we will work together to relieve unnecessary tensions in the body, move effectively, and discover deeper understanding of our vessel. My hope is that you will feel more capable and confidant in your body, no matter what type of body you have. This is not about strength training. It is abut understanding and appreciating the body you have.
