William Betts
President, CEO Motion Health Institute
During his initial career William started a software design company. Every facet of this business was operated under William’s personal direction. Through his hard work and business acumen, Betts Software Design became a highly successful firm. Over a 10 year period this firm generated revenue of several million dollars and maintained many Fortune 100 companies as clients including Exxon-Mobil, JP Morgan, Chase Financial, Bear Stearns & Transamerica.
Around the year 2000, William began suffering many of the issues that afflict people in the modern corporate culture. He was highly stressed, worked long hours and had little time to enjoy life and family. He was highly successful financially but started to become disillusioned with state of his everyday life. This disillusionment led him to search for a “better way”. This search led him to many ancient healing arts of the far east including Meditation, Qi Gong & Tai Chi.
In late 2000 William was blessed to come across the teachings of Grandmaster Jeffrey J. Guiffre. Grandmaster Jeffrey J. Guiffre was certified in China as a teacher and disciple "Dan Guang" by Great Master Wang Pei Sheng (Yin Cheng) of Beijing. He continues a direct teaching lineage of Great Masters from Yang Yu Ting, Wang Mao Zhai, and Quan You, the founder of the old and original Wu style Tai Ji Quan. William has studied under Grandmaster Guiffre’s personal direction since their first meeting.
Grandmaster Guiffre has disseminated to William many aspects of Nei Gong, Qi Gong & Tai Ji Quan. Some of the various forms and sets have included the Wu Style 37 Posture Tai Ji Quan Form, Golden Light Meditation, Five Element & Eight Energy Channels Meditation, Five Element Qi Gong, Energy Gathering Qi Gong, & Heaven & Earth Training. One focus of William's studies has been the healing powers of these arts. While learning to apply these techniques on a personal level, William has overcome and alleviated many of his own ailments. Throughout this process William has shown others how to apply these techniques to their own life.
Along with his personal wellness and martial art studies, William has immersed himself in Eastern philosophy. His studies have involved many of the great eastern spiritual texts and subjects including The Tao Te Ching, The I Ching and The Diamond Sutra & The Sutra of Hui-neng.
Recently, William became President and CEO of Motion Health Institute. This organization is responsible for sharing the teachings of Great Master Wang and Grandmaster Guiffre. William is truly humbled to be granted this honor and responsibility.
In late 2009 William started the website Qi Gong Live! William combined his vast experience in software development and the healing arts to create the the first and currently only website to offer Meditation and Qi Gong classes broadcast live over the internet. Qi Gong Live’s classes reach audiences across the globe. People from over 49 countries and 16 times zones have attended live events on Qi Gong Live.
