What would it mean to you to know true Happiness?
At The Discovery Portal, self cultivation is a way of life. It’s about finding balance in ourselves, others, and the world around us.
In January 2020, I created a program based on well being through self cultivation. My aim was to offer education, and embodiment practices for people to explore how to live a meaningful life.
We are all clearly part of a living path which sustains, guides, and leads us on the spiritual understanding of joy, insight, freedom, and peace.
This is the purpose of “The Path”, our original program combining movement, meditation, Qigong and Tai Chi . Our program includes courses that teach universal principles, and knowledge in understanding that everything in the universe, contains the idea of movement, humanity, evolution, history, civilization, and your part in that!
Our goal at The Discovery Portal is to take the wisdom of ancient philosophies and guide you into using it in the here and now, in your everyday life. Whatever stage of learning, recovery or curiosity about your life you are in, The Discovery Portal has a program of study to put you on the right path.

"People-First"
At The Discovery Portal, we guide each individual on their own personal path. We do this through our online classes, meditations, and weekly meet up groups. Based in Ancient teachings, adapted for today’s modern world, our programs consist of self-cultivation principles, movement practices, and how to live a value-based life. Our hope is that you find peace, love, contentment, and begin to live a more fulfilled and happy life.
We are committed to our community, and offer scholarships, support team opportunities, mentoring programs, and free community events.
As a 501c3 non-profit, it is through sponsorships, donations, partnerships, and fundraising efforts, that we are able to continue providing these services to the community.
No donation is too small, no one is turned away, so that everyone has access to learning.
Creating Meaningful Change That Lasts

Our program strengthens both the mind and the body, which shifts how we handle daily challenges, relationships and intentional living, from the inside-out.
Turning Compassion Into Action
Our vision is to help people realize a better version of themselves for the good of all humanity. We do this by teaching numerous practices, including Qigong, Tai Chi, moving meditations, and self-cultivation, making them relatable and appropriate to modern, everyday life. In realizing the positive qualities that exist in all human beings, our program, The Path, is aimed at creating personal change, developing moral strength & resilience, and establishing a new mindset in order to bring you closer to your authentic self and goals.
