Scott White

Through his years of sports science study, followed by 30+ years as a personal fitness and sports trainer and health coach, Scott discovered a passion for one of the oldest forms of healing exercise: Qigong and Tai Chi. He is proud to share his excitement for these healing arts with his students.

In 2010 Scott founded Qigong and Tai Chi Utah. Through the Institute of Integral Qigong and Tai Chi- IIQTC- he is a certified teacher of Qigong and Tai Chi as well as a Senior Trainer on the IIQTC faculty where he conducts Practice Leader and Tai Chi & Qigong Teacher Trainings and Workshops. He is also certified in Tai Chi Easy™ and Tai Chi Chair through the Healer Within Foundation and teaches Guo Lin Walking Qigong for Cancer.

On his path to becoming a senior trainer of Qigong and Tai Chi, Scott has been a student of several renowned international experts, including Dr. Roger Jahnke; Grandmaster Victor Fu; Master Jesse Tsao and Master Yang Lin, creator of Yi Shui Kong-style Qigong.

In Scott’s Tai Chi and Qigong classes, students will experience the mind-body moving meditation and self-care benefits of these two ancient practices: the Yin/Yang balance of flowing Tai Chi exercises and the grounding Qigong postures an gentle movements and stretches.  Centering Qi-filled breathing exercises, along with movement therapy, mindful stretching and transitions make Tai Chi powerful at all levels.
