🌸✨ A Celebration of Culture, Movement, and Poetry! ✨🌸

On February 1, 2025, Louise and a passionate group of Tai Chi enthusiasts wowed the crowd with a graceful Tai Chi and Tai Chi Fan demonstration at the vibrant Spring Festival celebration hosted by the university alumni association in the Toronto area! 🌟🎭

Adding to the magic of the evening, Louise also shared the beauty of language by reading her Chinese translation of an English poem from the poetic and photographic book, Stratford Gems—a heartfelt moment that connected cultures through the power of words. 📖💫

It was an unforgettable event filled with energy, artistry, and cultural harmony! 🎶🌏

Thanks to Heidi Sander for allowing me to work on her beautiful poetry book. It was an incredibly rewarding experience to translate it, and even more enjoyable to share it with the audience.
