Advanced-level (at last)

To Peter Southwood for a very nice card and an extremely generous gift of a fancy changshan.

Peter put the icing on the cake by giving feedback on Sifu's latest assessment and pronouncing him to be 'advanced'. What a wonderful wedding gift!

Sifu is more excited about the wedding than being officially 'advanced' and hasn't made any formal announcement to the class just yet.

After 20 years of tai chi chuan and baguazhang practice this is a long-overdue acknowledgement from a very difficult teacher to learn from.
