About Dr West
Dr. Roger West has been a student in Chinese philosophy, martial arts, meditation, and healing arts for over 27 years. During this time he has given instruction in various Chinese martial arts as well as Tui Na and acupressure and has taught and lectured about Feng Shui to thousands of people. His early instruction in Chinese healing arts became the impetus for him to receive his doctor’s degree in chiropractic to utilize his skills in Chinese tui-na, bone setting and acupressure.
Dr. West became familiar with feng shui over a quarter century ago by Master Hsu Hong Hsi. Master Hsu introduced Form School Feng Shui and gave him a firm grounding in the basic theories of Yin-Yang, Five Element Theory and the Eight Trigrams. In 1991 Dr. West began his in depth study of traditional Chinese Feng Shui and became a senior student of Master Larry Sang, founder of the American Feng Shui Institute. Throughout the years he has continued to broaden his knowledge of feng shui most currently by studying with Master Peter Leung of Toronto, Canada. His years of experience have endowed him with the ability to apply and test feng shui techniques in the context of our modern western lifestyle. His clients benefit from his practical and effective recommendations.
Dr. West served as a senior instructor for the American Feng Shui Institute for several years and helped train many of the students who have gone on to become successful feng shui practitioners in Los Angeles, CA and beyond. He teaches and lectures throughout the U.S. and has taught a popular class on Feng Shui at Los Angeles Harbor College for the past nine years.
Dr. West has been featured in various publications such as Feng Shui for Modern Living (United Kingdom), Marie Claire Magazine (Italy), The Awareness Magazine and Wind-Water Magazine (Los Angeles) and the Daily Breeze Newspaper (So. Calif.).
