Dr. Delphine Armand : Main Instructor, Founder of Si Yuan and Acupuncturist
A chance encounter with my Shifu (Master) during a thesis internship in Germany changed the course of my professional life. I invested all my student savings to attend his next seminar.
The logic and effectiveness of the Balance Method inspired me to dedicate myself fully to its practice and international expansion. I had the privilege of working alongside Dr. Tan for nearly ten years, during which I gained invaluable knowledge—not only about Chinese medicine but also about life itself. I had the honor of assisting him at numerous conferences and training courses across America, Europe, Australia, and Asia, observing his practice and welcoming him to mine— a place where, as he used to say, “the fast trains don’t even stop.” I organized and translated his training courses into French worldwide and also translated one of his books. I studied Ba Zi with him and assisted in preparing analyses for his clients. Since 2008, I have exclusively practiced Dr. Tan’s Balance Method. I have led workshops and taught courses whenever his health prevented him from attending.
At his request, and since his passing in 2015, I have continued to carry forward his teachings, spirit, and values through international and online training courses, conferences, and workshops.
