Hello again, Mike here – Update of this our 4^th fundraiser for EDS - Radio City 96.7 have said I can take the Liverpool EDS group up the towering heights of the Beacon, for a seated Tai Chi class 400 feet above Liverpool city centre.

Radio City have said we can use their room if we hit our Ehlers-Danlos Support UK charity fundraising target for above - This is because we recently topped their leader board by raising £275 for their Cash-For-Kids charity which supports locally disadvantaged children.

I took part in Radio City’s “Fit in Four Weeks” campaign in Feb 2023 by doing 30 mins of OUTDOOR Tai Chi, with a unique one-off Tai Chi class on Tues 21^st Feb in the conference room on the top deck of the Tower, with views over the 3 graces.

We will be practising a selection of seated EDS-friendly Qigongs, Tai Chi moves, breathing exercises (once they catch their breath after seeing the amazing view) and a Relaxation too.

My daughter Jennie has Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS) and Ehlers-Danlos Support UK desperately needs research funding. I am fortunate to only have mild symptoms of EDS.

Why do Tai Chi? – Well, the NHS introduced it to me in 2003 at the World Famous Walton Neurological Centre in Liverpool after I became a chronic pain sufferer due to a car crash in 2001.

I continued practising, helped others to learn, and was awarded my Teaching Certificate at the end of 2009. From then it slowly grew and in 2017 it became my full-time/part-time career with White Tiger Taiji School & www.taiji4you.co.uk

I want more people to fall in love with Tai Chi and, like me, benefit from practising it.

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

Feel free to drop me an email / message.

Best wishes,

Mike Woodward
