Background

Tony grew up in Oman, located in the southeastern coast of the Arabian Peninsula of the Middle East. He completed military schooling in the UK and was awarded a scholarship to study at Hotchkiss, a boarding school in the United States. During his time at Hotchkiss, he decided to learn Chinese. After taking classes for only one semester, he was convinced that he wanted to build a life for himself in China.

He enrolled at a University in provincial Guangdong (Chaozhou) and later discovered that he was the first, and indeed the only, foreigner out of 13,000 students. Tony found work at a cup-making factory, teaching English to the Chinese staff. He then transferred to Tsinghua University in Beijing to continue his studies. The more he learned about China, the more he wanted to know. These years in China transformed him. His values and beliefs shifted in ways that only validated his deep desires to live, learn and teach in China.

After experiencing a very painful and personal tragedy, he chose to go through the process of healing for mind, body and spirit. He transformed himself physically and emotionally through better nutrition and exercise. This choice turned his life around and allowed him to get back to his core. Tony then became a certified health and fitness coach and also got certified in Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine. This was just the beginning of his extraordinary journey of success as an internationally acclaimed health and wellness expert.
