It was readily apparent that there was an extraordinary level of support, dedication and eagerness to explore the depths of our treasured practice – regardless of how long each person had been practicing T’ai Chi Chih.

It was only six months ago that I was first introduced to TCC. Now I’m completely hooked. I can’t wait to integrate all that I learned into my practice, which I now know will be life-long. – Barb Kolarz

I came to improve myself; it is one more patch in my quilt. When I meet with teachers and classmates, my Chi becomes stronger. – Alma Zerboni

I experienced a collective bliss and tremendous sense of community as we practiced TCC in a circle, feeling a loving sense of oneness as we danced in unison as if in a beautiful dream. With over 20 years in various movements and spirituality modalities, I’m home. – Ami Sarasvati

It was inspiring to watch Pam move so effortlessly. She is an excellent role model. I have new goals to achieve: ‘Allow and give permission’ to your body to move; enjoy each move. I will go to the springtime teacher training with more confidence. – Lee Bergman

How could so many people with such a depth of inner understanding be at one place at the same time. – Barbara Flynn

I was both humbled and challenged by the openness and dedication of the students preparing for TCC accreditation. What a gift. – Sr. Mary Griffin

The instructional tips will bring more joy to my practice and life. It was heartwarming getting to know such sincerely loving people. I’m more optimistic simply by knowing each of them. – Carol Spicer

Lifted out of our daily lives, I return home with renewed devotion, a more flowing practice, new friendships and inspiration. – Joan Weaver
