Tuition:

All group classes are $15 individually.

Paid in advance by the month $13/class

(in a 4 week month you would pay $52 at the first class of the month to get your discount)

Though welcome, I try to discourage drop ins because we build on the content of the last class. Miss a week and it can be difficult to catch up, not to mention not fair to the students that do show up every week and work hard. No student is allowed to drop in for their first class in a session. You are required to call and pre-register. That way I know how many students to expect for a class, I can correctly place you for level, and relay any important information to you to make your experience as wonderful and comfortable as possible.

There are no refunds for missed group classes. If you have to miss a class and would like to make it up in another class, you need to call 24 hours in advance to arrange this.

Private lessons and semi-private lessons are are $50/hour, or $45/hour if you pay the month in advance ($180/month). For the discount, you must take one or more lessons per week or one lesson every other week.

You must call 24 hours in advance to cancel or reschedule a private lesson without penalty. In other words if you call within the 24 hours before your class (or just dont show) , you forfeit your tuition for that session.

All students or their guardians must sign a waiver prior to any instruction.
