My name is Corey Castle and I reside in Alexandria, VA.  I discovered Tai Chi Chuan in October of 2015 while attending a wedding reception for a friend of mine in Boston, MA.  I was beginning my meditation practice and was searching for a martial art to take on and mentioned it to my friend. It just so happened that his father was a Tai Chi Chuan practitioner and he suggested that I contact his father to learn more.  I spoke with his father and he suggested that I search for a local school in my area when I return back to D.C.  After returning home I found Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan Academy which to my surprise was only 15 minutes from my house.  I began taking classes there in late October and have continued ever since.
