6 Week Bridge Beginners Course Is Back

For those that missed last year’s course, starting April 10th, the Spitalfields 6-week Bridge Beginners Course is back!

The course will be tutored by Charlie Hunter. Charlie taught for many years at the Andrew Robson Bridge Club. Readers of The Times will know that Andrew Robson writes the paper’s daily Bridge column and is widely regarded as one of today¹s finest Bridge players, teachers and writers. Having taught alongside Andrew, Charlie went on to establish the Groucho Bridge Club in Soho, where his skill in stripping away the mystique and complexities of bridge for novices won him many plaudits.

Charlie takes a structured, yet relaxed teaching approach. Absolutely no prior knowledge of the game is required and by the end of the course you will confidently be playing one of the most fascinating games ever invented.

The 6 week course costs £120. Classes will be held at The English Restaurant, 50/52 Brushfield Street, in the private dining room from 7.30pm, on the following dates:

Tuesday 10th April * Monday 16th April * Wednesday 25th April Monday 30th April * Wednesday 9th May * Monday 14th May

If you would like to sign up, or want more information, please email Peter Boisseau at: pb@star.easynet.co.uk  or call him on 07956 334 294
