Mother and daughter teach T’ai Chi Chih together in Oregon

We first learned about T’ai Chi Chih by attending a retreat at Cannon Beach, OR given by Elizabeth Tyler. Elizabeth soon became our instructor and friend. Through her classes, private lessons and retreats, we were both able to become accredited T’ai Chi Chih instructors. We both have been teaching continuously for the past two years. Shirley teaches through a community college in Astoria and Seaside, OR, and I teach seniors in Portland, OR. When I am in Seaside or Astoria, I co-teach. It gives the students a good understanding of how people from different age groups move, and they enjoy having two instructors to follow. Some students enroll for our classes every term.
