About Us


Everyday T'ai Chi Ch'uan is the cottage industry of Jim and Mishell Bayer, both of whom have benefited greatly from their practice of T'ai Chi, and are dedicated to sharing it with others. They have been married since 1993, and have one son, Noah. Both are regular students at the T'ai Chi Ch'uan Center of Milwaukee, which has been in existence since the early 1970s. The Center combines two powerful streams of Chinese martial arts, the popular T'ai Chi lineage of Prof. Cheng Man-ch'ing and Benjamin Pang-jeng Lo, and the martial and Taoist teachings of General Yin Chian-ho, who taught traditional Chinese Kung-fu in Milwaukee for many years.

Jim

Jim Bayer began at the T'ai Chi Ch'uan Center of Milwaukee in 1992, and was certified to teach by the school's director, Michael Milewski, about 8 years later. Jim is honored to be a member of the Center's Board of Directors. His teaching style combines humor and hard work, and while he emphasizes the healing and personal growth aspects of T'ai Chi, he enjoys sharing its self-defense capabilities as well. Jim hopes to pass on the complete traditional art of T'ai Chi Ch'uan, helping to preserve it for future generations.

Mishell

Mishell Sommer-Bayer has been a student at the T'ai Chi Ch'uan Center of Milwaukee since 1997. It is through personal experience that she embraces T'ai Chi as a healing discipline and emphasizes its ability to enhance body awareness, proper breathing, and wellness. She is happy to share this gentle but powerful system of exercise with others.
