For over 40 years, Tom has been a teacher of Aikido, a graceful martial art which uses energy rather than force to resolve conflicts, and he includes principles and movements from Aikido, Tai Chi Chuan, Qi Gong, and other mind-body arts in his presentations, creating an experiential event which adds excitement, color, and value. Tom's regular practice of meditation, his love of golf and skiing, and his dedication to his wife Cathy (and their three children and eight grandchildren) are the center of his life.
