     Rob has been an athlete since the age of 3. While he competed in many

different sports his focus was always on tennis. Rob played #1 on his

collegiate team at the University of Puget Sound and was named 1st Team All

Conference.

     His athletic pursuits allowed him to experience many forms of physical and

mental coaching/training over the past 30 years. He has extensive experience

in weight training, stretching, meditation and hypnosis.

     Since 2002, Rob has dedicated himself to the study of Traditional Chinese

martial art. He currently studies Soft (Medical) Qigong and Gulao Pin

Sun Boxing under the private coaching of Jim Roselando. Rob feels that these

practices are SECOND TO NONE in health cultivation.

     Rob grew up in a family of medical doctors and has worked with several

surgeons as a Certified Ophthalmic Assistant. While he believes both eastern

and western philosophies are powerful on their own, he strongly believes that

an integrative approach is the most effective. Using all of your resources can

often eliminate the need for more invasive action.
