Q: I heard you no longer do the West Coast Basic Program.  Does this mean I have to wait until next summer to begin my basic 4 sessions?

A: Our new Spring Basic Acupuncture class replaces our West Coast Program.  This class delivers the same information in a new, more convenient format that avoids your being away from your practice for one of the on site sessions.

  • The full payment for the tuition of session 1 is due by registration.

  • The full payment for the tuition of session 2, 3 and 4 is due by 30 days, according to the payment reception by the Chi Institute, before the beginning of corresponding session. Please send the payment letter earlier to avoid extra charge.
  • A $50 late fee will be charged if the payment is made within 1-30 days, according to the payment reception by the Chi Institute, before the beginning of corresponding session.
