Registration

Please complete the form below to register an interest in joining our Beginner's Course - Term 1 (10  lessons) which will be held on Thursday Mornings at 10.30am, starting after Easter (exact times/dates TBC - but I anticipate the dates would be May 1st through to July 10th). The course will be held face to face at the clubhouse and run by Margaret Page. There are lots of public transport options for reaching the club (Cambridge Park, TW1 2PG) - but if you are driving we can also sell street parking vouchers at a reduced cost of £3/lesson

The full course is four terms and each term is booked separately - the second term would likely start after the summer recess, in September (still Thursday mornings).

In practice it is inevitable that students will miss the occasional lesson because of other commitments. Before each lesson (eg 10am) Pandora will run a recap on the previous week's topic. In addition all students on the course will receive a link to a series of videos made during lockdown of these lessons, so that you can watch these to catch up on a missed week or simply for revision. 

The cost of the course is £180 per person.  You will receive an automated email including payment details for Pandora but there is no need to make an immediate payment. Once we are able to confirm a "green light" for the course to proceed we will be back in touch with further instructions.

At this stage we are trying to gauge the level of interest/availability and ensure we have a minimum viable number of students on the course. So for the moment I suggest you try to keep that time slot free. If you have any other questions please do let us know.
