Tai Chi teacher is keen to promote skills to wider public community
I am a Tai Chi instructor who has been teaching for 11 years and have been doing Tai Chi for about
18 years.
Last year I formed my own Tai Chi school and aim to service areas in country NSW as demand
dictates.
I wish to get in touch with like-minded, dedicated and professional Tai Chi people and I'm sure this
will be possible by being part of the TCAA. Already I have become acquainted with several people,
including Dr. Paul Lam.
I am very keen to promote Tai Chi to the wider community -- it is my firm belief that despite the
various media outlets, the great benefits of Tai Chi are not being absorbed by the general public. As
you would know, many people leave learning our skill until later in life--why not start earlier in life
(ie we need to get more younger people!).
We as teachers are well aware of the task of retaining students and the depletion of class sizes. This is
a never ending dilemma. However I believe by really getting the message 'out there', we can attract
more dedicated students.
The task is not easy but it is also not impossible.
Let's face it, students need to make a commitment and sometimes that is not easy for them.
We know that many medical practitioners are recommending health exercises such as Tai Chi and
that has got to be a plus.
I know that over the years, I have had the pleasure of helping many people attain better health and
lifestyle, and that has been a big buzz for me. Many students come to Tai Chi because of doctors'
recommendations or hearing/reading about it great health benefits.
In summary, I teach various forms of Tai Chi, Tao Yin, Lohan, Wushu and weapons including
sword, fan and pole.
My business background is in publishing, as an editor/journalist and I have had many years
experience in this field.
Let us work together to reach and secure a bigger percentage of the general population. As I said
earlier, many people are still not aware of the healing, beneficial aspects of Tai Chi.
I look forward to working with others in this challenge.
