We made it - 100 people did Zoom Tai Chi for EDS and you smashed my target - THANK YOU TO EVERYONE - please check my updates at the bottom of this page for 'thank yous' & 'info'...

Note: Although these particular 2.6 Challenge Tai Chi classes have finished, anyone donating now can still join in my now regular Tai Chi via Zoom (my contact details are in the automatic thank you email you will receive)... And anyone who donates £30+ can have a 1-2-1 Zoom class with me (Every £1 = a 1-2-1 minute).

"lockdown" wellbeing teaching challenge: 2.6 hours of online Tai Chi x 100 people to raise funds for Ehlers-Danlos Support UK.

Relax, breathe, move, flow, unwind, rejuvenate, and enjoy.

You are invited to support and/or attend any or all 5 x 31.2 minute Tai Chi classes online, via Zoom, at just £2.60 a go, starting Wednesday 13th May, during Ehlers-Danlos Awareness month. (Zoom is free to download and use).

Beginners welcome. Class times: Wednesday 13th May @ 8.30pm ; Thursday 14th @ 2.30pm ; Friday 15th @ 10.30am ; Saturday 16th @ 10.30am and Sunday 17th @ 2.30pm.

My personal challenge is to get 100 people to take part thus raising at least £260 or any other very kind donations for Ehlers-Danlos Support UK

Challenge yourself and your friends to have a go while supporting this small charity - You should automatically receive an emailed "thank you" note with the Zoom access code, password / link details in it when you donate here - if you don't please do contact me.

My daughter Jennie has hypermobile EDS - the same condition that Coronation Street's Izzy Armstrong, played by Cherylee Houston, their first full-time disabled actor has too. She is an EDS
Ambassador and Comedian Ellie Taylor is the EDS Patron.

Jennie received her diagnosis just last year despite having various EDS related complications since birth. Unfortunately, this is quite common, and it took 27 years for doctors to piece together the jigsaw (12 years is the typical length of time for EDS diagnosis).

There is no cure for EDS yet, so we are trying to raise awareness and funding for urgently needed research.

Many thanks for reading all this.

Best wishes and #staysafe

Mike
