The Dragon's Head Blog: Seniors Week and International Seniors Day Celebrated at the International Center Florida

QUOTES FROM PARTICIPANTS IN INTERNATIONAL SENIORS WEEK, NOVEMBER 5-9, 2018

 

SENIORS WEEK PROGRAM:

 

My first workshop since starting in February this year.  Not too surprised to see so many seniors, but still amazed at their abilities.  Wonderful to have in-depth instruction and to participate in discussions on how we are individually being helped.  Thanks so much. …  Hazel C, Chicago, USA

 

I took Seniors Week because I didn’t feel I was ready for a CIT physically. To my surprise, the training was intense as other workshops.  I was more than pleasantly surprised by the training – learned a great deal of the feeling of the moves.  The instructor and her assistants are awesome. …  Kate P, Dunedin, FL, USA

 

I’m finding a deeper and deeper connection with my spine.  The Depth! …  Denise P, Kitcher, Waterloo, Canada

 

Pep in your step. …  Lily , Carolinas, USA

 

I have had many small victories this week – 100%. … Mary S., Hamilton Branch, Canada

 

Everyone worked hard on their tai chi, but in a light-hearted cheerful manner! … Karen F., Calgary, Alberta, Canada

 

I am inspired by Seniors Week – people in this workshop work harder. … Sadie H., Ireland

 

Seniors sometimes become invisible. But – Seniors Week at tai chi ensures all seniors are visible so that they can continue to learn and be respected. … Steve G., Chiltern Branch, Great Britain

INTERNATIONAL SENIOR’S DAY PROGRAM:

 

[My guest from the community remarked, that unlike most government and private programs for seniors] we are providing a sense of community, a place to gather, a place to meet friends. …  Mary N., Alaska, USA

 

The tables looked fantastic.  It was fun seeing Tai Chi senior celebrations from Canada and the USA. … Peggy T., Victoria, British Columbia, Canada
