Welcome to New Teachers (Summer 1989)

The Teachers’ Training class in Albuquerque, New Mexico held at the Albuquerque Convention Center, was a tremendous success. Fifteen new teachers graduated after seven days of loving and diligent work on the part of Steve, the teacher candidates, and all the supporting teachers. As always the class had a character of its own. Gentleness and grace would be two words that would best describe the underlying feeling.

Steve, in his sensitive and thoughtful way, helped to bring out the diamond radiance of each candidate’s T’ai Chi Chih.

Each candidate was open, and through the week let go of many old patterns in order to move into the new understanding of T’ai Chi Chih that Steve offered.

Several teachers came from far and near to help in their special, loving way. From California: Pam Towne and Steve Wornoff. From New Mexico: Carolyn Shaw, Jack Rogers, Virginia Shilson, Therese Goetz, Suni McHenry, Caroline Chavez, Cliff Taber, Sher Jaksha, Tonya Garcia, Antoinette Gamble, Guy Kent, Pat Jensen, and Loretta Shiver. Please know that we acknowledge your support in consciousness and generosity of time and love. Thank You!

My sincere appreciation goes to Steve for coming to share his expertise and love with us.

To the NEW Teachers I say welcome to the T’ai Chi Chih family, we are happy and fortunate to have you with us.

Welcome, Thank You & Love,
