Winter/Spring Classes 2024
Please read prior to enrollment:
We will be continuing to build two absences into the schedule and cost calculation for our classes. This means that an eight week class will be priced at what was previously the cost of a six week class! Feel free to attend all eight weeks as a bonus! We do reserve the ability to use one of these absences in the event of snow this winter. Please be aware that we are no longer offering additional make ups, to relieve the increasing complexity of scheduling. Our shorter classes however, do not have these built in absences. If you'd like to attend, we will not be offering any make ups for 4 week classes.
