We call our most senior teachers "legacy holders" because they are our direct link to Cheng Man Ch'ing. He personally taught Patrick Watson, who personally taught them. Patrick already had a long history in martial arts when he began to study with Professor Cheng in 1966. In 1975, after Professor Cheng’s death, he founded the international School of Tai Chi Chuan (which later became TCF) specifically to train new teachers. He led the School until his death in 1992. Herts STCC was founded in St Albans in 1995 by Joop & Lucy Brouwer.
