Our Story

My journey with Tai Chi began in my youth, sparked by a curiosity for the graceful movements and deep philosophy behind the practice. Growing up in Longueuil, QC, I often felt the stresses of life weighing heavily on me. It wasn’t until I found a local master who taught me that Tai Chi was not just about exercise, but a pathway to serenity and inner strength. Inspired, I dedicated myself to mastering this art. As I honed my skills, I discovered such incredible benefits—improved focus, enhanced physical health, and a unique bond with a community that shared my passion. This realization ignited my ambition to create Academie Shandor. I envisioned a space where individuals could find peace and connection through the ancient art of Tai Chi. Today, I’m proud to facilitate a nurturing environment where we celebrate our collective growth, embodying tranquility and resilience. My mission is to make Tai Chi accessible and relatable to everyone, allowing others to experience the same transformative journey that changed my life.
