SURREY AND HANTS TAI CHI school
Beginners - Start here
Authentic, traditional, mainstream Beginners' Tai Chi Chu'an (Taiji) and Chi Kung (Qigong) and Meditation / Mindfulness taught by China-trained teacher, Cherry Collins
For nearly 20 years, practically ALL of Cherry's teacher-training, practice hours and study has been focused on the ONE discipline of Tai Chi & Qigong, providing her with a locally unrivalled specialist knowledge of the art. We have 17 classes a week, five of which will be for new beginners in September.
When you book our classes you can be assured that you are going to learn true Tai Chi and Qigong as we don't spread ourselves thin by teaching lots of other things
Our classes will loosen and strengthen your body, improve overall health, clear the mind and soothe the heart. Join a class, learn a skill and thrive :)
The following beginner classes start on Monday 8th and Tuesday 9th September and are enrolling now. Our classes are popular and fill up early, so by late August there are normally only a few spots left, if any. If you'd like to join a class this is via our waiting lists - places are quite fluid in the first half term, people swap to other days/ times or may decide not to continue after the first block for various reasons, so it is absolutely worth getting your name on the list(s) of your choice now. Waiting lists don't tend to be very long - just 1-4 people and missing a few classes at the very start of the block isn't critical. You could subscribe to our online tutorials in the meantime (£10 per month) but let us know this is with a view to slotting into a particular class so we can direct you to the appropriate videos.

Surrey and Hants Tai Chi & Qigong - Booking Terms
No long contracts, no standing orders - come because you want to, not because you've signed up for a year or more
Booking the first block secures your place in the class for as long as you want it.
Classes are 1 hour long and cost £10 per week, paid in blocks of about 6 classes, by online card payment via our webstore. This is a non-recurring payment so you remain in control of the fees you pay. Invitations to renew are sent by email towards the end of each block of classes. You can leave the class by letting us know at renewal.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS
Although Tai Chi & Qigong are slow, low impact exercises, they may not be suitable for everyone. If you have a pre-existing health condition please check with your healthcare provider before booking as we cannot advise on any medical condition you may have and the suitability of the exercises in respect of such medical condition. The movements involve bending stretching and twisting and you will be on your feet for 1 hour.
ILLNESS/ HOLIDAY /MISSING CLASSES
We follow Surrey Schools term-time. There are usually no classes in Surrey school holidays but classes WILL go ahead on most inset days. Missed class fees for a class you have previously booked are non-refundable
If you have ANY cold-like symptoms or a cough please do not attend your class until all symptoms have gone, so that the rest of the group can enjoy the class without concern of catching a virus.
