Personal Practice
Individual practice outside the classes is an integral part of the course content. Because there is only one formal class per week with Sifu Markus, it is essential that the students practice what they are taught on a daily basis.
Uniform
There is no set uniform within the chi kung classes, instead students should wear loose, comfortable clothing. It is not advisable to train in bare feet, so indoor shoes or trainers will be required. Anyone with jewellery or piercings is advised to either remove them or to cover them with tape to help prevent accidents.
Class Etiquette
Each class will start promptly at the stated time and the students should be ready to begin the classes then. If a student is persistently late without good reason, or if they stand around talking instead of getting changed, then they may be asked to leave the class. Please read:
