These last few years, I have wanted to retire from BodyChance, my training school in Japan. 

I miss my family in Australia and wanted to do something different - maybe even become an actor again. Wait. Perhaps there isn’t such a big market for ageing white boomers? Oh well. Still, spending the last era of my life back in my culture - being close to my daughters as their lives unfolded - was more appealing than staying in Japan.
