Chair Report for the year 1st April 2022 – 31st March 2023
To be presented at Zoom AGM, 17th July 2023
This being our fourth Zoom AGM of TCHC NZ Inc., welcome to all those present.
Meetings: Meetings have continued by Zoom. Primarily they have been Mondays at 7:30pm. All Committee Members have contributed thoughts and facts gathered between meetings. Along with email correspondence this has shortened the length of meetings over the year.
Committee members: Committee Membership was boosted at the 2022 AGM with Jacky Whitfield joining us.
Sadly we farewell Robert Haas from the Committee.
He has been an exceptionally active member since 2019 and over the recent year has given much of his time overseeing the website, newsletter MailChimps and generally ‘keeping us to task’.
Robert has a fresh appraoch and an eye for detail which has been greatly appreciated. In the years he has been contributing to the work of the committee Robert has truly carved his place and will be leaving a very positive mark in our history.
We will have a gap in his skills and Robert has generously offered to guide the person who wishes to give the Website and Mailchimp tasks a go. Thank you Robert – your contribution to the Committee and to the whole community is truly valued.
Tamara has been the TCHC NZ Inc Secretary since inception of the society.
She has worked with dedication, focus and a sense of purpose to advance the standing of TCHC NZ Inc in New Zealand. Tamara has shared her knowledge, experience and learning with generosity in both the content of her sharing and in the abundant hours of time she put into the role over 12 years.
Tamara continues as Dr Lam’s Tai Chi Productions NZ Agent, and in her role as a TCHI Master Trainer authorised to train Tai Chi for Health Instructors.
Tamara, on behalf of all the Committee thank you for the love and the many years and hours you have dedicated to TCHC NZ Inc.

Committee work:

Committee work: Whilst being mindful and conversing about many aspects of TCHC NZ Inc
our 2022-23 focus has been towards …
? Introduction of Te Reo as a reflection of our name and motto ( a brief introduction
will be outlined in General Business and our Life member Toi Walker is scheduled to
present to us after the AGM on his Te Reo koha to TCHC NZ Inc
? Consideration of adjusting membership type titles.
Neither of these have been brought to the point of bringing a motion to the AGM
? We have also been working towards a schedule of document reviews to ensure we keep up to date in documentation.
With Robert leaving the Committee numbers are now projected to be five – we can build this up to seven and look forward to welcoming new Members.
Again I conclude that we are so very fortunate to be Tai Chi for Health practitioners promoting health and wellness. Tai chi blessings to you all.
Chris Hattle – TCHC NZ Inc Chair
Via Zoom, and email conversations in between meetings, our focus has been on navigating through structure of the Committee and developing a Complaints Policy and Procedure. These things you will see have results ready to be brought to this AGM, in streamlined format after many versions and layers have been sifted through. We have also received nomination for Toi Walker to be awarded Life Membership – this process also to be completed at the AGM
An ongoing direction we have continued working towards is our inclusion of Te Reo, to support the Tai Chi for Health Community NZ Inc name and motto. Seeking Te Reo has led us through a long period of convoluted learning. This will be an ongoing direction in the present year, and is a very enjoyable direction to be stepping towards. We have also had multiple discussions on aspects of the Code of Ethics
With Tamara as Secretary leaving the Committee we have had team work to share the tasks out. Numbers on the Committee are now at a low five – we can build this up to seven and look forward to welcoming new Members.
Again I conclude that we are so very fortunate to be Tai Chi for Health practitioners promoting health and wellness. Tai chi blessings to you all.
