I love to read aloud, doing voices and waving my hands. I think readings should be entertaining! Dramatic! Full of sights and sounds and maybe a little surprise. 

I also like to perform the flowing beauties of an internal martial art I learned in China from Heritage Master Yü AnRen: Tai Yi Yo Long Gongfu.  I am no master myself, but anyone doing Yo Long Gongfu stirs the air a little, bringing  a few moments of peace into the room.

You can read the story of how I met Mr. Yü in the essay "Empty/Full"
