I currently work for a small firm in Saint John, New Brunswick making custom orthopeadic footwear and insoles Prior to that I was a glass blower for 20 years and through it all raise three kids with my wife Helen. I started tai chi with Sifu Kennedy 4 years ago at the invitation of a friend who was going. I though it would be fun, a bit of a lark. I had no idea of what was to come and how much it would become part of my life. I have been working on the 108 standard and 54 round forms as well as sword, saber and spear. I am currently trying to learn something of the martial side of tai chi.
