Details of the Course
Length of Course and Lesson
The course runs for eight weeks, one hour a lesson.
Notes
A 30 page ring binder instruction manual will given out on the second lesson.
Covering such things as;
Instructional Dvd
Also on the second lesson a Instructional Dvd will be given out. This Dvd will cover everything that you will be learning within the eight weeks. Dvds are incredible helpful, for instance when you're at home the next day and you begin to practice what you learnt in the previous leson, however half way through you can't remember the next move. This is where Dvds come in handy, just play the Dvd watch for the spot where you are having trouble remembering which is usually enough to jog your memory and your off again. Now a word of caution, Dvds have their limitation, they are great for jogging your memory, but it is impossible to learn Tai Chi from a Dvd due to subtleties of alignments. After the first lesson you will understand what I mean.
Free Multiple Lessons
If you wish you can attend more than one lesson a week at no extra cost.
What this means is that, you are not restricted to just eight lessons over the eight weeks. If you joined up for the Lawnton class on a Monday evening and by Wednesday you are having trouble remembering the movements. Just turn up at the Lawnton, Tuesday morning class and have the same lesson at no extra cost. You are not paying for eight lessons, you are paying for eight weeks. If you can fit multiple lessons into a week that's great, it makes learning that much easier.
Ideal for Shift Workers
The way the eight course is structured makes it ideal for shift workers. For example, the lesson that is given on a Monday will be the same as the lesson given on a Friday. For the whole week the same lesson is given throughout all of Greater Brisbane.
So say if you sign up for the Wavell Heights Wednesday morning class and you can't go to your following Wednesday class due to shift changes, you could go to the Thursday evening class that week and make up the lesson instead. And then revert back to your Wednesday morning class or if you want, stay at Thursday or jump between the two. It's up to you.
First Lesson Free

Your instructor will give a talk on the principals and benefits of Tai Chi. After this you will be invited to to take part in the class if you attend the first lesson of the course and you decide not to join there is no charge for that lesson. For those that decide to take up the eight week course their eight week course then starts from the first lesson.
