Lighthouse Tai Chi®

This month we are beginning the transformation of our garden, to create a modern outdoor space to allow us to film, train and teach.  As part of our lifestyle blog, we are going to share the journey with you and hope it will be interesting and inspiring for you.  Our North-East facing garden is a little boggy, with clay soil, but is full of colourful plants from the previous owner, which we hope to keep and move to a more manageable location. These include hydrangea, various heathers, three colours of azaleas, various Aquilegias, Centaurus,  Amaranthus Caudatus, sedum  and many others we don't recognise.  The wonderful oak stump carving we commissioned from artist Ric Gibson of Stump Art in Bolton, will become more of a focal point for the garden. The Oak tree was cut down by the previous owner and when we viewed the house, we both kept seeing the face of a Green Man looking back at us. We wanted a smiley face for the carving, so the neighbours' children would not be scared and
