Ethan has been practicing taiji, xingyi and bagua for more than 30 years, has practiced Chinese medicine professionally and has been a licensed acupuncturist for 26 years.<\/p><p>Ethan was inspired on the path that led him to practice of gongfu and Chinese Medicine after suffering a life-threatening spontaneous pneumothorax at the age of 14. He underwent a surgical intervention that most likely saved his life but left him debilitated. Searching for methods to regain full health led him first to Chinese gongfu and then to his teacher Vince Black, who taught him not only xingyi and bagua but also Chinese osteopathy, acupuncture and herbal medicine.<\/p><p>In 2008, he founded the Montreal Gongfu Research Center in Montreal, an acupuncture and Chinese medicine clinic, a gongfu school, and a school for students to learn Tuina (offering professional certification), as well as other forms of manual therapies, medicinal herbs, and more.<\/p><p>Since 2017, Ethan has devoted himself to researching the classical roots of Chinese medicine. He travels regularly to Taiwan to research Chinese language, particularly the classical Chinese in which the medical classics are written. He devotes his time to practicing taiji quan and reading the classical texts, particularly the Huangdi Neijing, the Huainanzi, and the Yijing. His primary interest is in developing ways to apply the science of this beautiful worldview to the challenges we are facing in the modern world.
