Tam is a Master of the Martial Art of Vovinam (which means Martial Arts in Vietnamese), a Doctor of acupuncture, music teacher and community leader. Since leaving Vietnam, over 30 years ago, Tam has served the Vietnamese Community in the US in many ways. Master Tam teaches over 100 students in each of his weekly Martial Arts classes. He administers acupuncture daily to those in need. What’s more...Tam provides these services free of charge. Coworker Karen Moore, who was skeptical about acupuncture mentions "I knew Tam did acupuncture, and one day out of desperation I asked if he thought he could help me. He looked at my feet and told me to come to his clinic. Within two treatments, I was in less pain and walking better. After a few more treatments, I was walking normally with no pain."
