GETTING STARTED
                                     Aimed at people who wish to learn deeply.

Come and watch a full class for free and ask your questions.

Try out a single class for £10.

Join the group by paying the monthly fee in advance, then begin training twice a week, mix and match classes as you choose.

Classes are structured to ease you in step by step, along with pre-recorded video support to give confidence for home practice.

It's a condition of our school that you train twice a week (on occasion people can't make it for one reason or another - and that's perfectly understood of course). You can mix and match the classes to suit you, and train at more classes if you choose for for no additional fee!

 

The classes are structured:

1hr beginner introduction classes. (these run from time to time)

1.5hrs -  Regular classes for all.

3hrs+  - Mini Seminars each month by invitation.

Videos have been created to help your early learning.

Full weekend or longer Seminars for deepening into the teachings.

​

The first section of the Short Form can be seen by all - see Youtube JOeTaiji Channel

The further sections of Form videos are available to class attendees only.

There are occasional 1/2 day and 1 or 2 day seminars to deepen your understanding.
 

How to Approach the Teaching
Just like learning a musical instrument or new language gentle perseverance and regular practice will bring results as slowly the art unfolds.
At each class you can take on board the necessary personal corrections to refine your practise and  begin the journey into the deeper levels.

The books by Patrick Kelly are highly recommended, some with detailed explanations and photographs of the Form and Loosening Exercises.
