Bridge Lessons For Absolute Beginners

On this page are details of both Weekend and Weekly courses in Bridge. See opposite column for details of more advanced lessons.

LEARN BRIDGE IN A WEEKEND!
If you are a quick learner why not crack the basics in a single weekend and then spend future sessions actually playing! Learn Bridge in a Weekend is an intensive course that assumes no prior knowledge. The course takes place on Saturday and Sunday, 10.30am-5.30pm (both days). Next dates for this course are November 7th/8th 2009 in Earls Court, London SW5.

On the course you will learn the basics of card play and bidding and by Sunday afternoon you will play in your first small competition! You can come on your own or with a partner, or bring a gang of friends or colleagues. The course is led by Ned Paul, a qualified and experienced bridge teacher. This course has run successfully on many previous occasions and is a great way to learn bridge. Course fee including all documentation is £85.00.

Next scheduled dates:

  • Nov. 7th/8th 2009 (London SW5)

To book email Ned for full details and registration form or call or text 07944 768643. Further editions of the course will be held throughout 2009.
