Patrick sent these thoughts as he and Ellen were leaving Poland on April 23.
A warm welcome from our host club brought joy to the start of our journey in Poznań.
Many familiar faces gave a sense of continuity as the workshop began.
It was a great success, with many requests from different clubs for future workshops on Lokhup, sword set, push hands and more advanced Tai Chi.
