Hello everyone,
Summer is in full swing – temperatures are rising, sun is shining, nature is bursting and energy is abundant. Remember to enjoy practicing tai chi outside when conditions are favorable (sometimes here in the PNW we get fires which means lots of smoke in the air and we are advised to stay inside).
Fire Horse Year has been going strong for eight months now. Hope it’s been going well for you.
Our summer potluck was fun. Twenty-six of us gathered, shared dishes, caught up with extended family members and did a couple of rounds of tai chi in honor and celebration of Grandmaster Yang Zhenduo’s 100th birthday. Our next get together will be in December. Hope you can join us!
