Early Years... Tibetan Medicine
George Love learned Iyengar Yoga from his favorite aunt who had a yoga studio in her home. He worked at New York Health & Racquet club in the late 70s as a fitness trainer and yoga teacher for five years. He learned Tai chi Chuan from Da Liu (author) in Central Park every Sunday and was invited to his classes at the UN., where he met the Dalai Lama. That meeting led to his studying Tibetan Medicine with the personal physician to the Dalai Lama, Yeshe Donden for a year before he was recalled to the Dharmsala refugee community. At a temporary loss on how to continue his oriental medical education, George found out about an acupuncture school in Montreal and relocated for two years.
Master of Acupuncture
Upon graduation in 1981 he found employment at Lincoln Hospital in the Bronx doing Drug detox with auricular therapy and Acupuncture. Because it was the only hospital-based acupuncture program in the country, all the Acupuncture celebrities came to visit. One of them was Professor John B.Y. Lee (Li Bing Yuan). Prof. Lee operated the Longevity and Rejuvenation Institute in Beijing before eight years of incarceration and torture during the Cultural Revolution.
Prof. Lee encouraged George to quit the hospital and work with him in Chinatown. George learned medical Qigong and both Taoist and Buddhist medicine.
Under Prof Lee’s tutelage George received his Doctor of Oriental Medicine degree from Ju Shi Lin Taoist Scholars council in 1986. For six years Dr. Love worked in Chinatown before moving to Florida in 1990. Four years later Prof Lee called him with bad news. His wife had a stroke and was living in a nursing home. Prof Lee felt his death was near and wanted to transmit his family lineage of teachings back to the 1740s. Dr. Love flew back to NYC to spend time to convince him not to die.
Dr. Love received the family lineage in 1994 and for five years George diligently practiced all of his teachings before deciding he was ready to teach. Within six months he wrote the first book and made a video in 1999.
World-Class Studies
In 2009 Dr. Love made a vow to introduce Medical Qigong to the world community of martial arts, yoga, and Taichi. He studied the Ayurveda system (India), The Unani Tibb system (Islamic), the Four Treatises (Tibetan) System, the Qanum (Persian) system, and the Water Healing (West African) system. TaiYoga is the culmination of Spiritual, Martial, and Medical system of Movement Healing arts. His interests have led him to study tantra, as well as Egyptology.
He is now a dedicated lecturer, teacher, and friend of the community, offering free weekly Qi Gong classes at the beach in South Florida.
