Another cool, clear morning for early self practice. A local shop keeper has been joining us and following our Chi Gong practice for a few days now.
In the morning we left the Wetlands and visited the National Tea Museum and surrounds. Sword practice and a walk through some of the extensive gardens was followed by lunch at a farmhouse restaurant with Master Li's wife Sumo joining us.
In the afternoon we met some of the Hangzhou Disciples of Master Li and were treated to a performance of teat ceremony.
We exchanged some performances of Sword and Short Form, and Sumo sang for us.
Carol and a local Tai Chi student were initiated as Disciples of Master Li in the evening and we ended the day with a sumptuous banquet.
Half step forward pushing, sink back pulling down, lift as you settle then brace and push forward.
