Welcome to the 30th Anniversary edition of the Journal of the Tai Chi Union for Great Britain. The current issue commemorates the founding of the Tai Chi Union. The TCUGB was founded in 1990, three years before the first issue. The Journal started as a modest publication, 24 pages black and white, a couple of articles, in the autumn of 1993.
From the beginning Ronnie Robinson, the first editor and publications guiding light, offered a variety of outlooks, discussions and thoughts that encompassed all styles of tai chi chuan and qigong. It was this broad stance that helped unite Chinese internal art practitioners from all regions of the United Kingdom. This founding principle continues to this day…. Mark Langweiler Editor in Chief
