Demos and Week-end workshops are being planned for spring and summer. Let Lisa know what kind of classes you are interested in taking by calling her at the office.

Please note: Our teachers have scheduled specific dates and times for their classes, and if we have not reached minimum enrollment at least ten days before the start of class, we can not cover their pay and are forced to cancel the class

The teachers may have to rearrange their schedules and may not be able to fill in the dates with income produing activities. They also may have lost other opportunities.

We notify our students so they do not show up in vain, and we return their uncashed tuition checks. But, cancellations are tough on the students too. They may have purchased supplies or rearranged their schedules needlessly.

Please send in your tuition early to help avoid cancellations. Your check will not be cashed until the first day of class. The sooner we know that we will be able to reach the minimum for a class, the better for you, the teacher and the association.
