ABOUT YOUR INSTRUCTOR

Meet Jeff Patterson

Hi, I’m Jeff. I have been practicing martial arts for the past 36 years and I’ve learned from highly skilled masters from seven countries. I’ve achieved black belt equivalency in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Eskrima, Muay Thai, Kenpō, Tai Chi, and Qigong.

I firmly believe in the meditative arts and their power to enhance overall life experiences. This has led me to study the historical, philosophical, and health aspects of meditative arts. It resulted in an important realization regarding the concept of yielding. Now my mission is to share my knowledge with you after witnessing the positive and profound impact I’ve seen in thousands of my students.

Having authored three books, created two audio courses, and produced hundreds of videos on Tai Chi and Qigong, I believe I can help you achieve your goals.

“There’s a discipline, a calmness, a balance that I feel that has just made every relationship I’ve had, not just outside of here better but also my relationship with myself; the respect that I have for my body.”

- Brady

“I’ve noticed some things that it has done for me, with my balance, even with my memory.

See What Others Are Saying

“I have been studying under Sifu Jeff for over two years now. Before I started meditating, I was a mess. My job, living situation, and relationships were all in shambles. I knew I needed a fresh start. I set goals to simplify, but I was still finding myself incredibly scattered mentally. I found the practice to be exactly what I needed. Especially when I was diagnosed with testicular cancer that had spread to the lymph nodes in my spine. Despite a rough bout of chemotherapy, and the stress from a new job, I was able to maintain my energy levels and mental control. In fact, the doctors were amazed at how I handled the chemotherapy and asked me to participate in a study to understand how I could keep up with a full-time job and the monstrous side effects of chemotherapy without landing in the E.R. I credit this all to the meditation insights I learned from Sifu Jeff. Believe me when I say that these practices saved my life. I will be using these practices for the rest of my life.”

“Because it can be difficult to meditate on your own, I strongly recommend using Sifu Jeff Patterson’s guided meditation series. I’ve been practicing meditation with Sifu Patterson for almost two and a half years, and I’ve seen a lot of positive results in my life. This success encourages me to continue and deepen my personal mediation practice.”
