Dear Directors, Instructors and Members,
It is my pleasure to announce that beginning January 20, 2017, Martine Salane will take on the position of Co-Head of the Department of Instruction with me. She will be responsible for the administration of instructor certification, training standards and the Instructor Registry. I will supervise the Instruction Department in general and Chair both the Instructor Committee and Examination Committee. I will also continue to oversee the Division of Instruction and Standards overall.
Martine has been a long-time and dedicated member of the International Yang Family Tai Chi Chuan Association and a committee member of the Michigan Yang Chengfu Tai Chi Chuan Center with whom I have worked closely over these many years. She holds Rank 6 and currently sits on the Ranking committee of the International Yang Family Tai Chi Chuan Association.
In the past 12 years, Martine has made a significant contribution to her community by donating her time and instructional skills to her local cancer organization.
With her strong administrative skills, I know that Martine will be excellent in this new position. Please join me in welcoming Martine as the Instruction Department Co-Head.
