| My Experience with Michael |
|
I started training with Michael in 2005, after having been teacherless for a few years. My experience with Michael is that of a rare breed of teacher who has a great understanding of the principles of Tai Chi and how to apply them to great effects as a martial art and as a healing art. I have come to know him as a down to earth man with a great sense of humour and who is very modest about his skills.
His classes are a real joy, with a combination of thorough and indepth teaching, but delivered in such a way that you simply have great fun learning it. When I started training with Michael, I felt that within a relatively short time (and ofcourse with diligent practise!) a lot of the pieces of the Tai Chi jigsaw fell together. I have been very fortunate to have had very good teachers over the years, but to me, Michael is one of the best, for the reasons already mentioned: Skilled in the martial and healing aspects of Tai Chi and the ability to teach it clearly, thoroughly and with a sense of humour. I hope the people of Wales realise how lucky they are to have him on their doorstep and to people further afield I would say: His classes are worth traveling for!
