A beginner no more

Last night marked the last of my days as a beginner in tai chi. I have now completed six levels, which means I have learned 108 moves. I must admit to feeling quite pleased and proud of myself since it has been quite a challenge for me over the last couple of years. The last two terms have gone pretty well and I have far more confidence than I had in any of the earlier levels. I still find I have difficulty with some parts of the tai chi set, particularly those moves in level four. But I am getting better with time and now that I’ve learned the moves, I can concentrate on refining my skills. The Scientist finished two terms ago and has been helping out in the beginner class while waiting for me to catch up. So our new adventure starts in a few weeks, on a different night of the week and at a later hour. Should be fun!
