There are several advantages to joining the residential training programme. Firstly by spending an entire week practising T'ai Chi there is much more opportunity to go into the various aspects of the Art in depth. Also you will find that most of our advanced students and teachers will be attending this course so it's a good opportunity to benefit from their experience as there is a high ratio of teachers to students. That means that there's plenty of high quality help on hand to give you the kind of guided personal development that you need as an individual. Plus there's also a chance to train with many of the students from around the country who are at your own level and share information and training tips they you have picked up along the way at your local class. And of course it's a great opportunity to get to know the other members of the group in a relaxed environment free from external distractions. Many of you will find familiar faces from your own local regions but there's also a great opportunity to meet new people. Finally you can be assessed if you wish by the senior teachers which is a great way to pin-point what you need to work on when you get back home.
