Annual Chinese New Year Gathering 新年团拜

农历新年是个大日子，是个团圆欢乐的日子。
每一年， 杨厝港太极俱乐部都会趁此佳节，组织团拜活动，让各个班级的学员欢聚一堂，交流思想、联络感情。同学们都很踊跃的带了好多的食物，有各自的拿手好菜，有各处买的美食，排满了长长的桌子。也不忘了新年习俗捞鱼生，祈愿新年大家健康， Huat ah!
除了尽情享受美食以外，还有同学们悦耳的歌声，唱着首首新年歌。 平时上课时缺少了沟通的时刻，趁着此时，大家也可以认识其他班的朋友，互相交流。
新年好彩头，每位来宾都获赠一个红包，希望来年顺顺利利。团拜也在欢乐的游戏中结束了。

Chinese New Year is approaching and its time for us to do some art craft for house decoration.　

新年快到了，虽然最近真的很忙，还是在百忙中和有兴趣做红包灯笼的学生们一起做手工。做红包灯笼需要极大的耐心和时间，不过当亲手完成了作品，内心的满足感是语言不能表达的。

看似简单却非常考功夫的手工

Volunteer Taichi At Thye Hua Kwan Hospital

Every Friday commenced from 7 Dec 12, we head to Thye Hua Kwan Hospital Ang Mo Kio to teach the wheelchair bounded patients seated taichi, hoping that they enjoy the benefit of taichi despite their less mobility.

It is really encouraging and inspiring to feel the keenness of the patient, they are delighted and looking forward to the taichi session every Friday. 4 of us (Siew Hua, Lin Ho, Amanda and me) enjoy the hour with them, seeing them with smiling face and endless thank you at the end of every session and their improvement over a period of time. We are thinking of some new idea to improve the movement to make it fun and enjoyable.
We welcome whoever interested in volunteer work to come forword, we hope to strengthen our volunteer team.
我们很期待每个星期五和太和观社区医院的一群病人门一起练习坐式太极拳，虽然他们不能活动自如，但是他们都很有热忱，也很积极的学习。每次课程后，看到他们甜甜的笑容和不断的谢谢，总是让我们感到无比安慰。有些病人还能以积极的心态带动其他比较文静的病人，让整个课程从满欢乐。
如果你也喜欢帮助他人，请向前踏一步，我们需要你的支持
