Introductory Lessons

We began making our Introductory lessons available to students online during the Coronavirus pandemic of 2019-2020. During the shutdown, we wanted to make sure that students who were stuck at home were able to start the process of learning and be ready for when normal classes resumed.

When new students want to join our school, we usually start them off with 2-3 private lessons. These lessons are an hour long, scheduled by appointment during times when we do not have regular classes, and the cost for each is $40. During these lessons, students will be introduced to our curriculum and training methods, while the instructors get a chance to evaluate the student’s interest and ability. This also allows us to prepare each student for joining into the regular group classes, so that the pace of the class does not slow.

A good amount of the information that we cover in these Introductory Lessons can be shared online. We will need to check off certain things once you get into class, however you can definitely get the ball rolling at home.

Our online Introductory Lessons are offered at a discounted rate – $50 for 5 lessons. You can register for them here.
