Not everyone feels comfortable with live online classes. You may prefer not to be on camera, or have keep up with everyone else and turn up at the right time, on the right day. If this is you, then there is an alternative. All teapotmonk tai chi courses are self-study. You go at your own pace in the privacy of your own place. Then, and only if you wish to - you can ask for feedback. But even that is optional.  

What are the benefits of an online tai chi course?


  • PHYSICALLY: Find better balance, coordination, posture, breathing and discover a harmony and grace of movement you never realised you had.  
  • ENERGETICALLY : Find more energy in your body. More energy for other people, more energy for your work - more energy from the way you breathe.
  • MENTALLY: Discover a tranquility and sense of stillness as you learn to slow down and take things at their own pace.

As a beginner or an intermediate student, these courses are aimed at you. Today, literally, hundreds of thousands of students are learning Tai Chi online.

Read this for more on why Online Classes are the choice for so many. 


How long does it take to learn Tai Chi? 


The courses listed here last 12 months. You work at the pace that suits you, not the pace of other students nor that of the teacher.  Each course is available for a lifetime. If you want to go slow, go slow. But if you want to go fast, well, that option is there too. But, one of the lessons Tai Chi teaches is to Slow Down, take your time - Enjoy the moment. As we say in the course: Nothing Worthwhile is Done in a Hurry. 
"Paul Read has done it again.  Stunning photography!...  I never tire of the Teapot’s unique ability to open doors for me, to lead me to new insights, to reinforce many of my beliefs.  Paul is, in the finest sense, a teacher’s teacher.  Thank you, Paul, for continuing to gently move me along this lifelong journey called Tai Chi."  Buck Barnes.
