Term 3 2026
Monday July 13 - Friday September 18
Class Suitability and Bookings
Bookings are essential for class planning, preparation, and participant safety. This allows us to ensure appropriate class sizes, venue arrangements, and support where required.
All new participants are required to create an account and complete the necessary enrolment requirements before attending their first class. This includes signing the Medical Waiver and providing relevant health information and emergency contact details. These requirements help us maintain a safe environment and respond appropriately should an emergency arise.
Participation in RMTC classes is subject to an assessment of suitability, taking into account the safety and wellbeing of the participant, other class members, and the practical requirements of instruction. We welcome people of all abilities and will make reasonable efforts to accommodate individual needs wherever possible.
Participants must be able to take part in a manner that is safe, does not create an unreasonable risk of injury to themselves or others, and does not significantly impact the learning experience of the group.
In some circumstances, alternative arrangements may be required to ensure a safe and positive experience for everyone involved. These may include attendance with a support person, modifications to activities, participation in a smaller group or private session, or postponing participation until suitable arrangements can be made.
Decisions regarding participation are based on safety considerations, supervision requirements, venue limitations, and the nature of the activity. They are made on an individual basis and are not determined solely by disability, age, or any other protected characteristic.
Our goal is to provide a safe, inclusive and enjoyable learning environment for all participants while ensuring that classes remain practical, safe, and beneficial for the group as a whole.
Payment is not required at the time of booking - once you've attended a class, you can decide which Pass option suits you best.

Class Etiquette – Mindfulness begins at the door.
At Rising Moon Tai Chi, our practice of mindfulness starts even before the class commences and a few simple courtesies help keep the energy calm and flowing for all.
Please try to arrive about five minutes before class begins. This gives you time to settle in, find your place and catch up with other students. If you do happen to arrive late, that’s okay - simply enter the room quietly, put your things away, and offer a respectful salute to the instructor before joining the group. Students are expected to stay for the duration of the class, concluding together with a closing salute as a mark of mutual respect.
Please turn all devices to silent. This includes phones and watches.
At Mt Martha House, if there is a class in progress, we kindly ask that you enter from the front of the House and wait in the sitting room at the far end of the Room 18 hallway. This venue is a busy community hub, hosting school groups, local activities, and one-on-one counselling, so it’s important that we remain mindful and respectful of the shared space.
At The Studio, if a class is in progress, please wait in the foyer.
Once the instructor or Session Leader is ready to begin, please take your place promptly so we can begin together with the opening salute.
Please do not attend class if you are unwell.
We understand that everyone comes to class for different reasons, whether it's to relax, improve health, build focus, or simply enjoy the movement. Thank you for helping us maintain a calm, respectful, and welcoming space where all students can enjoy their practice.
Refund and Cancellation Policy for Term Payments: If payment has been made for the Term, and you find you have other commitments, please give at least 1 week’s notice before the start of the Term for a full refund. If less than a week’s notice is given, or if you do not attend, no refund can be issued. Term Passes can be transferred to a friend or family member (who are not an RMTC student). Term Passes are purchased for participation across a scheduled school term and are offered at a reduced rate based on regular attendance and commitment to the full program.
As class planning and enrolments are structured around term participation, Term Passes are non-refundable, non-transferable and non-extendable once the term has commenced.
We understand that illness, travel, work commitments and unexpected personal circumstances can occasionally affect attendance. However, a Term Pass secures your place for the duration of the term and is not based on the number of classes attended.
Unused classes, missed weeks or partial attendance cannot be carried forward, credited or transferred into future terms.
Refund and Cancellation Policy for 10 Sessions: Refunds are available only if none of the 10 sessions have been used.
Once the Pass has been activated, it becomes non-refundable. However, any remaining unused sessions may be transferred to a friend or family member who is not currently a student of Rising Moon Tai Chi School.
10-Session Passes are valid for 12 months from the date of purchase. Extensions beyond the expiry date are not available.
Refund and Cancellation Policy for Short Courses, Workshops, and Holiday Programmes: If you are unable to attend a workshop, short course or holiday programme, please provide at least 7 days’ notice prior to the commencement of the event and a full refund will be issued.
If less than 7 days’ notice is provided, 75% of the event fee will be refunded.
No refunds will be issued for cancellations made less than 48 hours prior to the event, or for non-attendance.
However, your booking may be transferred to a friend or family member.
Refund Policy for Instructor Illness: If classes are cancelled due to instructor illness for more than one consecutive week, the term may be extended into the holiday period to accommodate missed classes. If this is not possible, alternative arrangements may be determined by management.
