Who is Francesco Garri Garripoli?

Wuji Productions, Inc. was founded in 1997 by Francesco Garri Garripoli, respected Qigong instructor, author, wellness advocate, Emmy Award winning television graphics designer and program Producer-Director. Francesco produced educational television programs for PBS-TV for 18 years and has created and is featured on a series of award-winning Qigong DVDs with his business partner, Daisy Lee .
