FREE Saturday morning T'ai Chi beginners' practice

All students are encouraged to attend the free Saturday morning practices in McLean, Virginia, if at all possible.
All are welcome, including curious visitors, whether enrolled or not.

Make-up Classes

If you miss your regular class for any reason, you are encouraged to attend a make-up class at one of the other locations. (Make up classes are automatic, i.e., you don't need advance permission to attend one.) Make-ups must be taken in the term in which they are incurred. Even if you cannot attend a make-up, do not be discouraged as there is a lot of repetition and review at each class.

Refunds
Sorry, no refunds after the first class.

Bounced Check
The fee for bouncing a check is $45.

Clothes
Any loose, comfortable clothing and footwear are fine.

Textbook
A textbook is recommended, but not mandatory for beginners.
The textbook is:
"T'ai Chi, the Supreme Ultimate" by Cheng Man-Ch'ing and Robert W. Smith,
Tuttle Publishing Co., Rutland, VT.

No Cameras or Recorders
Sorry, no cameras or recorders of any kind are allowed in class.

Prospective students are invited to visit a beginner class as our guest
during the last two weeks of any term. Please call first to arrange. (703-759-9141, days)
Plus, the Saturday free practice is open to all every week. Just show up and enjoy.

If snow or inclement weather
forces cancellation of a class,
