Tai Chi – Intermediate – Quarter II

The first question is how to qualify

The class listing requires an instructor’s invitation, but doesn’t explain how to request one or what prior experience is expected. The Garden’s Atlanta classes team can clarify both at [email protected]; the word “intermediate” alone doesn’t define the entry standard.

A broad focus, not a published syllabus

The Garden identifies tai chi as a Chinese martial art and describes flexibility and balance as the class’s aims. Mali Harrell is the listed instructor. The event information doesn’t specify forms or a lesson sequence, so anyone weighing the class on its particular content should ask the classes team along with the eligibility question.

Weather, absences and refunds

The Garden says its classes generally run rain or shine unless severe weather threatens. It may cancel a program because of insufficient registration, a Garden closure or inclement weather; participants are to be contacted by phone or email, and a canceled program receives a full refund. For severe-weather cancellations or postponements, the Garden says a refund is issued if the class cannot be rescheduled.

For a participant’s cancellation, the Garden’s adult-class policy makes cancellations at least three days ahead or cancellations due to illness eligible for a refund. Missed classes without three days’ notice are not refunded. Many classes allow an alternate participant if the class team is emailed before class, but the policy doesn’t confirm whether that option applies to this one.
