Many different organizations sponsor tai chi programs and have their own certification systems for instructors. Tai Chi Vermont's training program stresses health, safety, and solidly powerful teaching methods. Tai Chi Vermont provides instructor certifications in Falls Prevention Tai Chi and other Tai Chi forms, along with skillbuilding workshops.
FOR A GOOD GUIDE TO TAI CHI AND ITS MEDICAL BENEFITS, I RECOMMEND THE HARVARD MEDICAL SCHOOL GUIDE TO TAI CHI BY DR. PETER WAYNE.
Why become an instructor?
We trained instructors find that teaching--which most of us do as volunteers--is energizing, stimulating, challenging, and joyful. We learn from our class participants, enjoy updating our skills together, and of course, have the benefit of practicing tai chi during classes.
