After many happy years in the dance field and counseling at public high schools, I wanted to keep moving after retirement. Back problems got in the way until T’ai Chi Chih saved the day. A writing course led me to a retreat center where TCC was being taught by Sr. Antonia Cooper. A few years later I achieved my teaching certificate with the guidance of Donna McElhose and Diane Durkin.

I taught TCC for five years at a cancer resource center and led adults in private classes.

I use TCC — joyful and serene — as a personal calming and physical retreat. It is magical to share its natural beauty and flow.
