About Bridge Improvers

At Bridge Improvers, we provide nine, ten-week modules, with the whole bridge course taught over a period of three years.  Relative beginners will usually move through the modules sequentially, but more experienced players may want to pick and choose their modules.

Each module consists of seven taught bridge lessons  (one hour of teaching on Zoom and one  hour's supervised practice on RealBridge) and three consolidation, hand play sessions to ensure students really understand and can use all the techniques they have covered in lessons.

For complete beginners, we start with a more intensive 4-lesson bridge course over a period of 2 weeks.  

This takes place in early January, so that students can get a feel for the game before committing to a full module.  Those who decide to continue can then join the start of Module 1

The bridge lessons are loosely based on the EBU Bridge for All programme using the ACOL system of bidding.  Each module consist of ten lessons taught by an experienced bridge teacher and includes sessions to practice and  consolidate learning.  Students  receive comprehensive notes to support each lesson.

There is a maximum of 16 students in each group.   The bridge lessons are friendly and relaxed and students are encouraged to ask questions.

Pairs who want to play together are welcome, but it's also fine to just come  alone.  It is a good opportunity to meet people and develop new friendships and bridge partnerships.
