Your Syllabus

We’ve discussed planning a lesson, planning classes from week to week, but how to do you organise your teaching material?

It took me a number of years to realise a syllabus is a great idea. This is where I list the Forms and exercises the different classes will learn.

Included in this syllabus are my Aims and Philosophy of the School, and a detailed breakdown of the content of the Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced and Weapons classes. In this document I have included some of my favourite teaching strategies (in case I need inspiration) and various drills. In case I need help remembering all the Tai Chi and Qigong Forms, I have each listed in this Syllabus. The Syllabus is my ‘go to’ resource for classes. I also include tai chi principles, stances and the postural functions of tai chi.
