Waitlist Policy:
Many students find that they want to continue their class beyond their initial session. It is common to take a Beginning class for a couple of sessions. Due to the popularity of our classes, we offer priority enrollment for current students to continue their class. If any spots become available in a class, or if a student is ready to move up, we are then able to offer registration to new students, starting with those on our waitlist.
If you would like to be on the waitlist, please email [email protected] with your name and preferred class.
