Hands on, small groups, lots of practice!
We are taking a brand new approach to these
seminars, an approach that will be even more effective than our past wildly
successful Symposiums. We want you to leave confident in your abilities and
rarin' to go! Therefore, this weekend is very much hands on, very
interactive with many opportunities to teach and to practice.
Our hosts this year will be Monty and Ellen
Hendrix. Both are skilled martial artists (in a variety of disciplines)
and have embraced our programs with enthusiasm and dedication! Our Symposium
will be held in one of their dojos. Thanks Monty and Ellen!
IMPORTANT CHANGE:
To increase the effectiveness of teaching ever increasing amounts of
material, this year I have divided the Symposium into SECTIONS.
SYMPOSIUM - "The Main Event!" (BASICS/ADVANCED)
Two and a half days are devoted to the "Basics" for first level
Certification, with Advanced Breakaways.
Easy Tai Chi CORE
Then we offer an optional half day dedicated to CORE teaching and
practice.
Easy Tai Chi FLOW
And an optional full day for those interested in learning Easy Tai Chi
FLOW. Prices and descriptions are below.
* Any Certified Leaders and Teachers present will
have opportunities to take leading roles over the weekend, helping students
and those wishing to become Certified this weekend.
DATES:
Thursday evening, Nov. 10, then all day Nov. 11, 12, 13, 14
Thursday evening
"Meet and Greet"
On
Thursday evening, we
will do a "meet and greet". This session is mandatory so the formalities
and introductions will be completed and not interfere with training
time. This session will be the beginning of many lifelong friendships.
Friday, Saturday,
Sunday
(until noon)
Basics / Advanced
- Infinite Nine, 4 Minute Fitness, Scripts, Basics, Advanced Breakaway, Certification
1. Creating CONFIDENT practitioners - making
your practice spectacular!
This session is perfect for anyone who has
learned the Easy Tai Chi (Infinite Nine) form from the video or DVD. As
always, our main goal is to improve your technique. Better technique
ALWAYS creates improved benefits. And all students will be surrounded by
passionate, caring and skilled teachers (see #2 below).
2. Creating CONFIDENT teachers - Script
reviews and teaching practice
First and foremost - we will have a chance to
practice and perfect the teaching scripts in small, supportive groups. I
have come to realize that just because people have my DVD's and the
on-line manuals, and they can do the moves - there is no guarantee that
they can teach. These scripts will create a massive jump in your
personal skills, and in your ability to relay those skills to students.
So we will have fun with the scripts and you will leave with more
confidence than ever.
Of course, you will learn the basics, and
there will be lots of time for individual coaching.
3. Additional time with Advanced Students
We will create time to work with those students
who are ready to move to a higher skill level.
Sunday afternoon - Easy Tai Chi CORE
- learn and practice Easy Tai Chi CORE
This
optional afternoon is an additional $49 as an extension to the weekend,
or $99 as a solo afternoon.
This afternoon will be devoted to
learning/improving your CORE practice. It is advisable to be somewhat
familiar with Easy Tai Chi CORE, so pull out your DVD and start playing
with these terrific moves.
All day Monday - NEW Easy Tai Chi FLOW
This optional
day is an additional $99 as an extension to the weekend, or $159 as a
solo day
You will love this new form - the moves are gorgeous. I
can't wait to show you. Today will be dedicated to teaching these moves,
increasing skill level and working on maximizing benefits.
While the focus is on FLOW, everything you
learn will increase your overall understanding and skill level.

Comments from past sessions
"The program was informative,
inspirational and intoxicating... The in-depth teaching that takes place
cannot be obtained by reviewing the DVD. The atmosphere created by Keith,
advanced teachers and students opened up my capacity for self awareness; a
special gift I will always keep close to my heart."
"If you want to teach, come to the
training. It is invaluable. The one on one and small-group
experiences help to improve upon the skills you already have. There's
so much more than the DVD alone can offer. It is definitely worth the
price."
"After attending five Symposiums, I
received a lot of knowledge that I would otherwise missed. This
Symposium helped me achieve a better understanding of what I am teaching and
a new outlook towards tai chi."
"My knowledge of tai chi just doubled and made me even more excited about
teaching. I firmly believe that all those who want to teach and
perfect their tai chi should attend."
"Very worth the time and effort.
Life-changing. The possibilities are endless"
"The enthusiasm generated was so
contagious. I was able to learn more tai chi in this seminar than in
nine weeks of study."
"If you want to feel great
inside and out, attend Dr. Jeffery's program. Thank you!!!"
"Attending will enhance your performance
beyond any other tai chi training on the market today"
As a life long martial arts
professional, I must say this was the best seminar I have ever attended!"
"After years of martial arts and tai chi
seminars, this was the most helpful. The level of detail for each
movement was great. It was refreshing to cover the fundamentals in
such depth."
"I learned more in one weekend
about tai chi than in the last 10 years of practice."
