Zoom: Tai Chi for Osteoporosis with Nina Zeldin

This Instructor Certification course includes the new Self-Paced Instructor Preparation Package (SIPP). Completion of the online SIPP portion is required PRIOR to the October workshop. You will enjoy this valuable resource as you prepare for the live interactive workshop, and it will continue to support you as a new instructor. You will have access to the materials for three years.

The SIPP package must be purchased separately by you, well in advance of the October Zoom training. It is normally $80 USD, but you will receive a 30% off coupon code after your payment for the workshop is received, significantly reducing the price to $56.

The live interactive portion will be held via the Zoom platform on Thursday, October 22, 10:00 am to 6:00 pm ET.

A brief “tech check” meeting will be held on October 15, 10:00 am to 10:30 am ET, to ensure you are familiar with using Zoom and can be seen head-to-toe. 

During the live instructor training workshop, we will review the material from the SIPP lessons and practice all the movements. Participants are expected to be able to perform the sequence of movements from memory, so follow along with Dr Lam on the SIPP lessons and practice each section until you can perform the movements from memory before moving on to the next section.

Your preparation helps ensure that you become certified at the end of the training. Those who are not well prepared may require additional practice and meeting(s) with the Master Trainer to meet the certification standard.  Those meeting the standard for Instructor Qualification will be invited to join the Tai Chi for Health Institute.  Your membership provides Board Certification to teach this form.  

The fee for the Self-Paced Preparation Package portion of the training is $56 after applying the coupon code you will be sent after your registration and payment are received.  If you pay prior to registering, the fee will be $80. It is best to register and pay for the course and use the coupon code, as refunds will not be processed later. This purchase will be made online via the link you will receive. 

After your registration and payment are received, you will also receive a 20% discount code to purchase the required Teaching Tai Chi Effectively book from taichiproductions.com. 

The fee for the October live, interactive portion of this training is $275, payable by check to Healthy Acadia, P.O. Box 1710, Ellsworth, Maine, 04605 or by credit card. If paying by check, please reference “Oct. 22 TCO” on the memo line. If paying by credit card, you can use this link: bit.ly/TaiChiTrainingPayments.  If you use the link, please write “Oct. 22 TCO” in the “Payment for” box. 

Participants who successfully complete the training will be invited to become TCHI Board Certified Instructors. Membership provides the license to teach the program and many other benefits. The standard two-year membership is $65 US dollars. 

As a member of the Tai Chi for Health Institute, you will be listed in the TCHI Instructors’ Directory, which includes a full-page profile and location-based search. Other benefits include discounts on instructional materials and workshop fees.

All instructors are required to update their qualifications every two years to refresh their skills and knowledge of the program.

There will be a $50 administration fee for all cancellations. No refunds after October 7, 2026. If you find you cannot participate in the October training, you can move to another of Nina’s TCO workshops.
