About Us

Hi, my name is Erica Bough, 4th Degree Black Belt, American Taekwondo Certified Instructor and Tai Chi instructor through Dr. Paul Lam’s Tai Chi for Health Institute. As a three time World Champion in Taekwondo, I had sustained injury due to hip dysplasia, labral tear and a hip replacement. Recovery was challenging and I was in search for the next step in my training. Little did I know that I had been so focused on my “training” that I was missing so much in life.

My goal is to share this knowledge with others and improve the physical and mental health of as many people as I can reach per Dr. Lam’s mission for the Tai Chi for Health programs. Now that I am in post recovery, I’m now expanding Tai Chi from children to as old as you are. Tai Chi is for everyone. Come join me!!

How We Got Started

The Tai Chi for Health programs proved to be the perfect solution. After only a month of Dr. Lam’s program and personally training with him, I saw definite progress in the functioning of my hip and other associated issues including my knee and lower back pain. Hence, the birth of BREATHE LIFE TAI CHI. I also found that with the addition of Tai Chi in my life, I became much more productive with my martial arts training allowing time for a truly happy life with the people around me.
