Dear Noel, . . . The experiences of other teachers are always helpful and timely. . . I am facing a new challenge at present with a hearing impaired student in one of my classes. If there is anyone who has had a similar experience I would appreciate hearing from you.

Hi! Thank you for this letter [re: coming changes in the Teachers’ Directory and opportunity to receive a free issue]. After several years of being inactive I am once again beginning to teach T’ai Chi Chih. Please accept the enclosed check for my one year subscription to VFJ plus a copy of the updated Teacher Directory when it becomes available. . .

The VFJ under your watchful care just gets better and better.

Hi Lois, Liz, Noel & Ed,
Now that my son is a kindergartner my practice has gotten more regular and requests for classes are coming forward. I need a teachers group “refresher.” Please let me know who’s coming to CA this fall for accreditation or Seijaku. Love to all,

Dear Noel,
The Vital Force’s new style and form is very impressive and very professional. You are doing a superb job. It shows that this is not just work, there is you and your heart and mind showing! I hope you keep the job so we can all enjoy more great issues of The Vital Force. My best wishes and abundant blessings! See you both at the conference!

Thank you for your notice of the new directory. Because of a shoulder injury, I have not taken any new students since the first of the year . . . Will reach age 75 next month and enjoy T’ai Chi Chih daily. It helps in my healing process.

Hi, Kids! The Vital Force should have a warning posted on the front, advising people that it is NOT FOR BEDTIME READING! All of the articles are so inspiring that one just has to get right to their feet and do a little T.C.C., and then just see if you can get any sleep! I’m interested in signing up for the Website Teacher Referral List, so shall I just use the membership form in the back of TVF?. . . Love,
