Henry Phạm Đức · Henry Pham Duc
Tennis & Tai Chi,
researched side by side.
A bilingual knowledge garden for one curious tennis enthusiast and tai chi practitioner — biomechanics, kinetic chains, fascia, and the dialogue between modern sport and a 1,000-year-old moving meditation.
Một khu vườn tri thức song ngữ cho một người đam mê môn tennis và tập Taichi — cơ sinh học, chuỗi động học, fascia, và cuộc đối thoại giữa thể thao hiện đại với một môn thiền động đã có hơn 1.000 năm.
About
I'm Henry Pham Duc — a tennis enthusiast in Surrey, BC, and a tai chi practitioner. I research the biomechanics of the modern tennis groundstroke, the kinetic chain, and the surprisingly deep overlap between fascial lines, the stretch-shortening cycle, and traditional Chinese movement arts.
Tôi là Henry Phạm Đức — người đam mê môn tennis ở Surrey, BC, và người tập Taichi đã lâu. Tôi nghiên cứu cơ sinh học cú thuận tay hiện đại, chuỗi động học, và sự giao thoa đáng ngạc nhiên giữa các đường fascia, chu trình kéo-rút ngắn, với các môn võ-thuật truyền thống Trung Hoa.
These pages are the home base for what I publish: Tennis for Every One (my long-running coaching blog), a bilingual Tennis Wiki (Vietnamese & English), a parallel Tai Chi Wiki, an AI coach, a biomechanics research lab, and a free bilingual ebook library.

Where I write about tennis
- 📝 Tennis for Every One — my long-running coaching blog, in Vietnamese
- 📘 Tennis Knowledge Base on Facebook — community + daily posts
☯ Tai Chi
1,000-year-old moving meditation, also decoded.
The slow form, push-hands, qigong, fascia, and the crossover with tennis. A parallel research system — because the body is the same body, in both.
Taichi WIKI (Tiếng Việt)
Vietnamese tai chi encyclopedia — forms, push-hands, applications, fascia, neurology, the 8 gates.
Taichi WIKI (English)
English mirror of the Vietnamese tai chi wiki.
Taichi (50+ body)
A curated bilingual EN/VI resource site for the 50+ body — gentle on joints, deep in benefit.
Taichi NOW Page
71 archived posts of tai chi practice, push-hands, qigong, and reflective notes — the original Facebook page that started the wiki.
Why tennis AND tai chi?
Tennis teaches me speed, power, and the kinetic chain. Tai chi teaches me root, fascia, and what happens after the kinetic chain ends. Both are conversations with the ground. Both are about how a human body organizes force from the floor up. The crossover research lives in both wikis — and is the most interesting work I do.
Stay in touch
I post most actively on Facebook and on the Tennis for Every One blog. The wikis are deep-dive references; the social channels are where the daily practice shows up.
