My Massachusetts seminar last month was a great success! I met old friends and made new connections. Big THANKS to Sifu Richard, Sensei Jeff, Rob, Christine, and Read for making this dream into reality. I plan to go back next June. I’ll post one of the sessions on Patreon.

As I close out 2022, I’d like to take this space to thank you for your support, encouragement, appreciation, practice, and dedication. Even though the pandemic seems to be on the downside, the effects, caution, fear, and worry are still real. I do hope to see you back in class when you feel safe enough.

This year I’ve had a couple of serious encounters with people suffering from BPD. I learned a lot, even when it was the most painful and hurtful. Your support through these trying times, together with my daily practice, kept me healthy and sane! Namaste and thank you.

I’m excited to be on this Tai-Chi journey with you all. I'm still as excited to practice today as I was when I began 42 years ago! Thank you for a magical 2022 and Year of the Tiger. I look forward to 2023 and the Year of the Rabbit.

I bow to the ground,

-Sifu Ray
