What clothes should I wear at the classes?

Loose fitting clothes, light and comfortable to wear are ideal.

What footwear should I use?

Ideally flat-soled footwear of the plimsoll type.

Can I join a class that has already been running for a few weeks or longer?

You will be welcome to join at any time and will be helped to progress to the level of learning reached by the other students.

What if I miss a class: will I fall behind?

Missing a training class will not affect learning progress and experience of the benefits of Tai-Ji or Qi-Gong if you make them a part of your daily/weekly health and exercise regime. Teaching is very thorough with repetition to consolidate learners knowledge, so no important information will be missed if you cannot get to the class one week: but advancement will only be attained by attending regularly.

Do I need to train at home/in my own time out of class to benefit my health fully?

Yes, to attain the maximum therapeutic benefits, practice should become a way of life, even if you train for only a few minutes each day.

How quickly will I experience benefits to my health from training?

You should start to feel some health benefits from the very first class you attend, notably clarity of mind and a sense of being more energised: fuller and lasting benefits will be experienced once you have been training for some weeks and continue to do so regularly.
