Gerda Geddes (1918-2006)

Mark texted me last Friday that GG had died.
As far as I know she was the first Westerner to teach Tai Chi in UK.

Several of my students and T'ai Chi friends here in the North East of Scotland either studied with Gerda or knew her as friends and neighbours. One of my students, Frank, was asked by Gerda to interview her over the last few years and will hopefully write a book reflecting on her life and work. If you have photos, recollections or information that you would like to share with him please contact him at frank [AT] forseat [DOT] demon [DOT] co [DOT] uk. Also feel free to pass this contact on to anyone who knew or studied with Gerda.
