Zachary Morris
As an acupuncture intern at the Jung Tao School of Classical Chinese Medicine, Zachary Trey Morris draws on a rich background in martial arts, qigong, and structural mechanics to inform his clinical practice. Long before entering formal medical training, his pathway into holistic healthcare was forged through three foundational oral traditions – Ling Mo Fa Qi Northern Shaolin Family Style Kung Fu, Mantak Chia’s Universal Tao internal alchemical system, and the ancient oral tradition of Väinämöinen mythology – complemented by years of practice in boxing, parkour and gymnastics.
Synthesizing classical Chinese medical theory with hands-on physical techniques, Zachary focuses on working with the channel systems to address structural imbalances, chronic pain, and internal dysregulations. His approach is rooted in the classical view of the body as an interconnected system, utilizing precise needle strategy, tactile feedback, and channel engagement to help restore structural integrity and support the body’s self-regulating capacity.
When outside the clinic, he continues his personal cultivation through external and internal kung fu practices, ongoing forensic and linguistic studies in classical systems, and exploring structural mechanics. Following graduation, Zachary plans to establish an independent practice focused on integrative structural health, athletic optimization, and expanding community access to classical healthcare and modalities.

Steven Robertson
Steven Robertson is a Tai Chi and Qigong instructor from Knoxville, Tennessee, and the founder of Knoxville Tai Chi, a Clear Tai Chi member school. He has studied the Clear Tai Chi system under Sigung Richard Clear for over a decade (completing his tenth year in 2023) and is certified as a Clear Tai Chi Instructor and Clear Internal Push Hands Instructor.
His long-term practice of Tai Chi has led him to the formal study of Chinese medicine at Jung Tao School of Classical Chinese Medicine where he brings an appreciation for the internal arts, softness, alignment, and the cultivation of qi.
When not in the clinic, Steven enjoys going on walks with his wife, Katie, one year old daughter Eleanor, and his dog Ollie. He looks forward to integrating the principles of Tai Chi with classical acupuncture to help patients find greater balance, interconnectedness and peace.
