My next teaching visit to Aberdeenshire

I have just booked my tickets to Aberdeenshire to teach at the end of the month. I will be flying immediately after the BTCCA weekend and will arrive late Sunday 25th February. If there is anyone who could get me from the airport and take me to Forgue, that would be truly wonderful. I will be packing, I hope, pretty solidly for three days, if the house sale still goes through ok, otherwise I will be showing people around the house. If anyone is free to help with packing, I can offer cake and good company in return! I will know nearer the time what is happening. I will definitely come and teach Thursday class on 1st March and begin teaching the Long Form, so don't miss that. Also, there will be time for any Short Form questions that you have hanging about. If I have time, I will try to do the Monday and Wednesday classes, but I cannot be sure this time, similarly, I may be able to do a sabre class at my house, but we will have to see. Sunday 4th March 2-6pm will be a drop in session open to all, most probably at Paolo and Davina's, and I will be returning to London after that on the last flight back. On the 1st, 2nd and 3rd March, I may be available to teach 121s, let me know if you are interested.

I apologise for the lack of concrete times (except the Thurs and Sun classes, which are certs), but it will all settle down for March dates and the Spring workshops. I am in the process of buying a flat in Tooting near my brother's place, with plenty of room for T'ai Chi. Please keep your fingers crossed about this.

I have been at class 5 days a week, and getting sessions in with classmates as well as a few lessons with Steven and 121s planned with Mark next week. I hope to be starting a South London daytime class on Wednesdays in about 6-8 weeks, and have had a few enquiries already and David will take the class when I am in Scotland.

Steven Moore, John Kells' "right arm" for many years, is moving to Israel to be with his fiancee and to teach T'ai Chi and Heartwork. I will miss him hugely, though I know he will be back regularly to teach as well as see family here. I will post any of his workshop dates here in case any of you want to come to London for them, or to the ones in Ireland. All of the GreatRiver students who have met him have appreciated his generosity of spirit and the depth of his teaching. Thanks Steven, good luck and much love for your future life from all of us! See you soon. The prospect of visiting Israel sometime seems very inviting to catch up with Steven, Nitsan, Rami and also to get some sunshine...
