Taiji Europa Relaxation DVD Monday 19 July 2010 at 11:13 pm
Ronnie Robinson and Nils Klug have produced a new dvd.
Relaxation - a Stimulating New DVD from Taiji Europa!
Relaxation is an integral, but increasingly elusive component for living an effective live.
In this new DVD we have selected key instructors to illustrate effective techniques from taijiquan, qigong and shiatsu.
The DVD should prove invaluable to practitioners of taijiquan, qigong, exercise professionals and bodyworkers.

The links in the email for people who subscribe to the union new were broken. So this is a repeat with the corrct links.At the 2010 Annual General Meeting nominations were received for posts on the Executive Committee. The Committee is to be elected by ballot of the members holding 'S', 'A' or 'I' Grades.
The Constitution restricts the Committee to a maximum of 10 members so you can only cast a vote for a maximum of 10 of the candidates listed below. You may vote for, against or abstain by placing an X in the appropriate column. If more than 10 votes are cast the paper will be void.
The Ballot paper must be returned to arrive by 31st May 2010 and can be sent by post or email to the Secretary.

Tai Chi World record Attempt Sunday 25 April 2010 at 8:16 pm
The Union Promotions & Publicity Officer, Ronnie Robinson, has sent us new of this event organised by Andy Spragg.On July 25th Re-Vitalise Tai Chi will be working with Tai Chi instructors throughout the UK to attempt to break a world record. The biggest Tai Chi lesson ever.
This record is currently held (unsurprisingly) by the Chinese. They had 33, 996 people performing Tai Chi. I believe that if the UK Tai Chi community works together we can reach 40,000! I can’t do this alone! I need about 500 Tai Chi instructors across the UK to join me. Will you help?
I am working with Breakthrough Breast Cancer to raise money for Breast Cancer research with this record attempt. Each individual taking part will be expected to contribute 1UKP for a half hour Tai Chi session with you. (Obviously, the session can carry on longer if you wish but for the record, we need to cover the 30 minute period) It doesn’t take a degree in Maths to figure out that we have the potential to raise 40,000UKP for breast cancer research.
I lost a good friend to this horrible illness last year so this charity is particularly dear to me.
This event will be fully monitored by the Guinness World Record association.
In order to register your support, can you send an email to andy.spragg@re-vitalise.co.uk with your Physical contact address (so I know where you are in the country) your email address and your phone contact details.
Please support this event and help us to crack the record and raise money for this very special cause.
Please can you let me know if you will be helping us out with this attempt?
