Latest COVID-19 Related Class News

As we all know COVID -19 continues to keep everyone on edge and keep many quarantined. Student polls reveal that most are still not comfortable to be in closed spaces with others yet. Therefore we have not had any group indoor classes at our Takoma Park facility. We are hoping that if there is not a second wave of flu type maladies to deal with, then perhaps we may resume indoor classes in early or mid October. Time will tell.

Fortunately, our online Zoom classes remain very popular. Group Tai Chi classes on Mondays and Wednesdays continue from 6-7 pm, as well as our group sitting Meditation/ Qigong classes that meet at noon on Fridays. Should you need the links to be part of these classes, call Paul at 301-651-3617 or email him at longmen987@gmail.com to get information concerning the classes and/ or to get the links that allow entry to these group classes.

Many students have opted to utilize the normal monthly fee to schedule ongoing private Zoom classes to obtain one on one instruction. Options include but are not limited to; 30 -minute classes once per week, 40 minute classes every week and a half or one hour private sessions every other week. Call or email to get more information on these and other options.

There are a few students who choose to come to the gaithersburg school or to other local outdoor areas near there to get their private lessons where social distancing, masks, and other precautions are in place. Any subject not requiring contact may be taught at these times so if you are interested call Paul at 301-651-3617 to get an idea of what can be taught and to see which times remain available for these one-on one sessions.

Stay Safe and hope to see you all either in person or online soon!
