TCC students benefiting in South Africa

. . . [Here are] some of the letters from one of the Groups that I started teaching. It has been wonderful to see how dedicated this group have been and the interest they have shown. I derive such a great uplift and flow of energy when I travel up to assist them in the next few moves and leave them to master them in the month.

Having been recommended to practise T’ai Chi Chih for health reasons we were blessed with finding Sr. Marie-Ann to instruct us in T’ai Chi Chih. She has travelled more than 70 miles from Durban to St Pietermaritzburg at least once a month to guide us to reap the real benefits of T’ai Chi Chih, balance yet shared energy and spiritual peace. Our group of 8-12 meet twice a week and are all feeling so blessed we only wish we could influence more people to benefit from Sr. Marie-Ann’s skillful and dedicated instruction. Thank you Sister! My stiff joints are definitely loosening up!

A dedicated improvement in both my physical and mental well being has been experienced since I started T’ai Chi Chih +/- two months ago. Thanks.

. . . I joined T.C.C. classes hoping it would help me with my back pain I have been suffering with for 21 years even though I had an operation to improve my situation caused by three motor car accidents. Well after three months of exercising I must admit, God works in mysterious ways. Being very depressed for quite some time I have discovered just what “Joy Thru Movement” really is and means. I have got my zest for life back, once again, and have met wonderful and made wonderful friends. I am a very tense person by nature and can now truthfully say that the relaxation T’ai Chi Chih has brought me with such inner peace has made me a different person. With time to come and perseverance, I am sure that the other things that ail me will surely disappear. Thank you Sister Marie-Ann for your help, support and guidance. It is an honour to have you as our teacher.

Learning T’ai Chi Chih with the guidance of Sr. Marie-Ann has shown me a new way of finding relaxation and serenity in life. The gentle movements are the best form of non-strenuous exercise that I know of, and really help me to unwind. I only wish more people in our highly-stressed society could discover T’ai Chi Chih for themselves — I’m sure it has the potential to benefit anyone who learns it.

These are some of the feelings that have been given to me and I thought I would like to share with the T.C.C. Family who gave me so much. Greetings and thanks once again for trusting that it would eventually take some small root in South Africa. Our prayers are with you all over the recent Disaster.
