1998 – The Basement Years

Here are some images from one of the many YMT classes that were taught in the distinctly tiled basement of the West Side YMCA around 1998. Among others in the photos are Gretchen MacLane, Robert Politzer, Larry Ford, Arnold C. Baker II, Thomas W. Campbell, Paul O’Brian, Michael Stone, Marthe Keller and Illana Schienman.
Robert is demonstrating applications from the first section of the long form and Larry and Thomas are practicing Da-Lu, which is Tuishou Exercise 14 (of 15).
