An outdoor practice at St. Catherine’s Renewal Centre in Grand Falls-Windsor
where we held our 2009 Teacher Accreditation Training
Several former T’ai Chi Chih students from my classes have continued on to become
Accredited T’ai Chi Chih Teachers over the past several years.
It is wonderful to see our T’ai Chi Chih teaching community grow
as well as our Newfoundland T’ai Chi Chih community overall!
Congratulations to all!
Of those initially accredited in 2009, (pictured here below)
including two students who had joined us from New York and New Jersey for our Accreditation,
three of our own teachers quickly began teaching here in Newfoundland,
Allan MacNeil (on left) from the Stephenville area,
Karen Dingwell-MacCarthy (3rd from left)
and Nelson Higdon (2nd from right) both in the Gander area.
Nelson later moved out of the province
and is now back home and living in New Harbour, Trinity Bay.
He is currently exploring teaching possibilities once again,
in person, including one-on-one or in groups, on-line or in-person.
Another student, Carolyn O’Donnell, was accredited in May 2013
and has been involved in teaching several classes since then.
She has put her classes on hold the past two years.
Carolyn and I are pictured here at a Wellness Day
at Seal Cove CONA Campus in 2014.
Sharon Hayden, who lives in Witless Bay, was accredited in December 2020
and has since started offering classes in Witless Bay.
Sharon is pictured here with her Accreditation group and trainer/host on Zoom …(Top 3rd from left)
