Mastering the Moments: Life Lessons Inspired By a Tai Chi Master (Paperback)

What did a highly trained, experienced, and globally traveled professional-who ran his own travel and international seminar agencies, presided over a national registry automobile museum, and did museum-quality photography and ran marathons on the side-have in common with a high school teacher and sports coach who did radio and TV sportscasting as a hobby? Not much, except that, over time, their acquired love of the traditional Chinese martial and health art of Tai Chi and the desire to later teach it.

Both Master Robert Sbarge (third generation) and his student, now Sifu Greg Vick (fourth generation), are direct-lineage martial arts students of one of China's "National Treasures," the late Great-grandmaster Chang Tung Sheng (1905-1986).

Explore the in-class insights, stories, teachings, and lessons from "day one," when the author was a "beginner with an interest," up until the final days of his master's passage from this life. Follow the student (author) as he takes the seeds of Tai Chi principles and practice from his sifu (teacher) and cultivates them into daily moments of awareness and a deeper understanding of the mind-body-spirit relationship.

And along the way, feel their individual, step-by-step transformational journeys involved in experiencing a fire walk.
