Zac grew up in British Columbia and first discovered meditation as a child while sitting in a hole he had dug in his backyard. From an early age, he was drawn to the stillness and healing found in nature, often spending hours in the forest emptying his mind and exploring movement intuitively. In fact, he spontaneously discovered several yoga postures in nature long before ever being introduced to the practice of Yoga.

Today, Zac is the founder of Holistic Energy Medicine and the creator of the Wuji Internal Arts, a transformational system that harmonizes Yoga and Qigong while bridging ancient Taoist and yogic wisdom with modern understandings of nervous system science and embodied healing. His teachings emphasize energetic awareness, devotion, and playfulness, creating spaces where people are invited to move, breathe, feel, and reconnect with their authentic nature.

After thousands of hours of study, practice, and weaving together diverse traditions, Zac has developed a truly unique approach to teaching, with classes that are often described as both deeply healing and profoundly human, where laughter and tears naturally coexist. His mission is to empower individuals to optimize, harmonize, and align their energy with their dharma, so they may live with greater vitality, purpose, and connection.
