I’m Benedicte Gadron: Teacher of Tai Chi, Qigong, French and German, and a Personal Trainer. I am originally from France and came to Hilton Head Island in 2008 with my family. My background in foreign languages (German and English) and drama and my passion for Yoga, Qigong and Tai Chi lead me to be in alignment with my mission in life and to become a teacher. I practice and live according to the motto: a healthy mind in a healthy body. Learning a new activity, whether it is a language or a new discipline, keeps our brain stimulated and strong. I am fluent in 3 languages and I have been teaching them in France and in the USA for many years. As far as Tai Chi, Qigong and Yoga, I discovered and have been practicing the Taoist Tai Chi set of 108 moves since 1995 and started to instruct in 1999 in Brussels where I was living. I discovered Qigong on Hilton Head and I got my certification after completing my IIQTC* training in May 2011. In 2012, I also received my certification in Tai Chi Easy, a simplified form of Tai Chi infused with Qigong. I started practicing Yoga when I was 21 in France and was always able to find a class everywhere I lived (Austria, England, US). Since May 2018, I have been a RYS certified yoga instructor. I’ve become a certified ACE Personal Trainer in 2021. I am a fervent believer of self-care, in which Yoga, Qigong and Tai Chi are extremely efficient tools that help me to live in a joyful and healthy way. I have a deep sense that my mission is to share those tools with you!
