Silk Wind Studio

We’ve been studying Tai chi & Bagua with Pete at Silk Wind for many years and, as martial artists, we’ve always enjoyed Pete’s application-based approach to tai chi. It’s not just about the movement, it’s about the reasons behind the movement. Pete’s an amazing & comprehensive instructor. No question is too ridiculous - take it from me!
Both Pete & Donna take their classes seriously & as a family-run business, were an extension of their family.

I connected with Pete Landini some 15 years ago when I was looking for training in tai chi as a martial art. I've been training at Silk Wind ever since. The depth and breadth of Pete's experience in internal and external martial arts is impressive, and it's obvious that he continues to advance his own training, something that I consider essential in a martial arts instructor. There are ongoing classes in tai chi, bagua, qigong and yoga (Donna is an experienced and highly qualified yogi and martial arts instructor) plus workshops in specialty areas, including meditation, tai chi weapons, xingyi and more. The classes are fun, and tailored to all levels, from novice to advanced. The students are an amazing, dedicated bunch, and the facility is peaceful and sparkling clean, having passed and exceeded the county's COVID requirements. Highly recommended.

Pete is an excellent teacher of the internal martial arts, (Taichi , Bagua, Hsing I) meditation and Taoist philosophy. I have studied with Pete for almost eleven years now. He teaches to many levels in each class therefore I would encourage anyone to come down and take some classes! Qigong is also a part of the training at Silkwind. Whether one is interested in self defense, healing or both , I can recommend Silkwind without reservation ! Hope to see you there!

When I was looking for a Tai Chi teacher that taught the martial aspects, I stumbled onto Silk Wind studios. There I discovered Baguazhang which I instantly took a liking to, as well as the other internal martial arts.

I'm lucky I found Pete first. He is an exceptional teacher of internal martial arts. He has a deep knowledge of the subject matter and how all of the internal arts fit together into a cohesive whole.

I've been taking tai chi with Pete for almost 2 years. He is an excellent and patient teacher who is not only knowledgeable but also obviously enjoys his work. The classes are sometimes challenging but also fun. I am dedicated to the practice as a result of the quality of Pete's instruction. I highly recommend Silk Wind Studio.
