"History shows that some of the greatest innovations have been driven by one of two powerful engines: 1- Pain, threats, difficulties; or 2- Raw creativity of an individual with expertise in two or more disciplines, who at the intersection of those disciplines, creates something new that no one has thought of before. Astonishingly, John C. Neubauer’s breakthrough is born of both!" ---Robert N. Hatch, Producer/Director of America's Real Deal TV Show and winner of many film awards.
John invented Tai Chi Yoga in 1977 by combining into a single discipline the ancient Chinese martial art Tai Chi with the Indian stretching, breathing and relaxation of Hatha Yoga. Today at 75 with the help of his Tai Chi Yoga, he has defied the limits of aging - retaining his youthfulness, balance, flexibility and inner calm.
Most recently, his Tai Chi Yoga and a wise doctor enabled him to overcome the surprise onset of Parkinson's in 2022 which derailed his shot at winning the business TV reality show "America's Real Deal". Refusing to let die his dream of leaving Tai Chi Yoga as a legacy for millions, he completed this book "The Power of Tai Chi Yoga". The book is a nearly 50 year journey into how Tai Chi Yoga amazingly impacted his physical, mental, and spiritual well-being and how it can similarly impact the lives of its readers. He has already begun work on his next book, "The How-to of Tai Chi Yoga - For All Ages" planned for release in 2024.
John was a high school valedictorian. He graduated with honors and an accounting degree from Drake University in 1970. He twice won the Iowa Governor's Community Betterment Award for his highly-publicized neighborhood-redevelopment efforts in Des Moines, Iowa. He has been featured, for example, in Success Magazine, the Journal of Accountancy, and The Des Moines Register.
