Faye Li Yip is a passionate practitioner, performer, and professional teacher of Tai Chi, Qigong, and Chinese Martial Arts with over 40 years of training experience. After moving to the UK in 1990, she set up both the Deyin Taijiquan Institute (GB) and British Health Qigong Association with the help and support of her husband, and has since worked tirelessly to raise the awareness of both physical and mental wellbeing through the art of Tai Chi and Qigong.

Over 30 years of teaching, she’s trained nearly 20,000 British and European students and teachers from all walks of life. She has produced several DVDs for all the forms she teaches, in order to allow those who are unable to attend classes to experience their benefits. Moreover, she has more than 8,000 subscribers on YouTube as another alternative solution.

Faye has led students in many large-scale performances, including the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee celebration at RAF Cosford, the Qigong Performance to count down the London Olympics, and the live performance in the EFL Championships. In 2014, she was invited to teach Tai Chi at the World Economic Forum’s Annual Meeting of the New Champions, comprised of international fitness and health experts. In 2016, Faye was invited to teach Tai Chi and Qigong to the current President of Ireland, His Excellency President Higgins, and the First Lady at the Presidential Palace.
