Jian for Tai Chi

[veridian_sylph]

Have just managed to get some info back on the Tai Chi class I used to attend. It is apparently still running and will begin again on the 21st of this month. It has also changed to Sword Form - very graceful and fluid style. I am looking forward to attending, but wondered if anyone has any recommendations for wooden training sword suppliers. I have found a few on ebay, but would prefer to at least handle it before buying as weight and balance will affect my form. Also I am not very tall (almost 5'6") so any suggestions for a suitable size for me would be useful too.

I may not be good enough to stay the course, so I will not be spending a fortune. The ones online seem to be about £15 - £20.

I may get away with some dowel for the first couple of weeks :D

Here's to me doing an activity again!
