Each class will meet for 1 hour per week for 8 consecutive weeks. The cost is $75 per person. You can call or email me if you wish to registerfor a class (recommended), or you can just show up on the first night!

Group Classes

Classes are taught in 8-week courses consisting of one 55-minute lesson per week unless otherwise specified.  The cost for these classes is $75 per person per 8 week course (for those accountants among you, that amounts to just under $10.25 per hour of instruction).  This fee is payable by check or cash on the first lesson of an 8-week course.  No partner is required to participate.

Scheduling:

• 8-week courses will usually be arranged to run over 8 consecutive weeks.  In the case of a major holiday, a particular lesson may be moved to another day or postponed to a later week.  Such reschedulings will be discussed and agreed upon with each class as far in advance as possible.

Refunds:

• Pro-rated refunds will be given on request for unexpected extended absence for major medical reasons or other hazards beyond the student’s control.  Please notify me as early as possible of such circumstances.

Missed Classes:

• Each lesson typically begins with a review of previously-covered material, so missing a single class is generally not a problem.  If you are going to miss more than 1 consecutive lesson, you may wish to arrange a private lesson (see below) to catch back up with the class.
• If you know in advance at registration time that you will miss more than 1 lesson, I will pro-rate the class fee by offering a discount of $10 per absence after the first

Private and Semi-Private Lessons

• Private lessons for 1 person or 1 couple may be arranged at a cost of $50 for a 1-hour lesson or $30 for a ½-hour.
• A semi-private lesson may involve 3 or more students at a cost of $20/hour for each student.
• All private and semi-private lessons are by appointment.
