Yong Liu

Tai Chi Fitness Instructor

I wanted to use this class not only to help community residents in Issaquah Highlands know and learn tai chi for their fitness purposes, but also to help the Issaquah Food & Clothing Bank collect free-will donations…We welcome anyone who would like to learn tai chi to join us!”

I really enjoy being on the HY Board because it gives me so many opportunities to be proactive within the community. It makes me feel good knowing that I am able to improve lives of residents.”

Tracie Jones

School Spotlight Columnist

I’m happily into my seventh year working with the incredibly supportive, patient, and caring volunteers at Issaquah Highlands... Throughout the years, I’ve realized volunteering is an everyday, organic experience. I gratefully acknowledge those who’ve come before me, as mentors and partners, and those to eventually follow."
