Private Classes

Most of JinLi’s Instructors are available to conduct private classes. Individual tuition can be beneficial if you expect to be away for an extended period of time, find you are struggling to attend regular classes or would like to work independently of a class situation. You will need to contact our office to discuss your requirements.

Private classes will be conducted in a location that is mutually convenient to the instructor and the student. The class can be in a local park or a training venue however it should be noted that our instructors do not conduct classes in private houses.

A private class does not need to be one-on-one. If you have a small group of friends who would like to train together, please don't hesitate to contact us. Tuition rates are available through our office and are based on the number of participants and duration of the class. Fees do not include venue hire.
