Testimonials

‘As a professional Martial Arts Instructor, I am very selective about whom I study under and I can say without reservation that Rita is one of my favourite teachers. I would not hesitate in recommending Rita's classes to anybody who is interested in studying Tai Chi Chuan’. - Master David Mc.Goldrick, Korean Martial Arts Academy, Tq

 
‘I am in my late 50s and suffer from Tinnitus and Osteoarthritis in both knees.  Since taking up Tai Chi, I have found a marked improvement in my Tinnitus and much relief in the pain and movement in my knees.  I only wish I had taken it up years ago.’  - Gerry Scutt, Chief Fire-fighter (Ret), Bx.

 
‘As a professional singer I soon found that Tai Chi was extremely beneficial for my voice. I noticed that my singing voice became more flexible and stronger and I actually use the opening actions I have learned in Tai Chi whilst I am singing.   Tai Chi practice aids a more natural breathing pattern for singers and increases vocal and physical stamina.’  Margaret Duffy, Singer/Songwriter, - Bx
 

Stress reducing, relaxing, posture improving, flexibility enhancing, health promoting  AND enjoyable..............what's not  to like about Tai Chi?  At the same time, there is the steady cultivation of core principles, and those who have progressed further in their studies  have scant opportunity to slide back into a superficial "going through the motions"  performance.  All in all, Rita’s Tai Chi classes offer a thoroughly rewarding experience.’  - J. Bruten, Lecturer (Ret) Bx.
 

‘My Instructor Rita says Tai Chi is a journey.  For me it is exactly that!  My journey of re-awakening; of self-awareness of mind and body.  I have been in her class for 11 months now, and after practice, I feel an incredible sense of physical and mental well-being, which I didn't have before.  I would really recommend attending Rita's classes for anyone thinking of taking up Tai Chi’. Lesley Scutt, Artist, - Bx
 

For the last 13 years I have suffered with M.E. and due to the nature of the illness most physical exercise is just too strenuous for me to attempt, so when I saw Rita’s classes I thought it would be ideal for me, and it was!.  I have been doing Taiji for nearly three years and I really look forward to the classes, Rita is such a good teacher with a lot of patience and understanding.  I would recommend her Taiji classes to everyone as they have helped me in so many ways; by improving my posture and increasing my energy levels, reducing my stress and teaching me how to relax. - Valerie, Bx
