Jay Stempin



​Teaches Tai Chi Classes for Adults & Seniors
at The Dance Element in Wilmington NC.





Jay Stempin has been practicing Tai Chi since 1998.


In need of an outlet to relieve stress and reconnect with a sense of purpose, Jay found the internal martial art of Tai Chi in Nevada City, California. He began studying a Yang style and it changed his life in an energizing way.

After relocating to Wisconsin, he discovered a Yang/Tso variation of this mind-body-spirit exercise, which he credits with helping him rekindle his courage, rebuild his core strength, and re-establish his positive outlook on life.


Jay believes everyone deserves to be happy, feel good, and move with freedom from pain.
​He loves helping others overcome obstacles and make life sparkle through the self-healing practice of Tai Chi.


Jay also shares his passion with students at UNCW.
He has enjoyed leading beginner Tai Chi Classes
​for Adults & Seniors
at The Dance Element since January of 2024.
