Tuition Rates
Private Monthly Tuition is Based On 48 Classes A Year
To create consistency in billing for our families, Monthly Tuition rates for private lessons are based on 48 classes a year and a monthly average of four (4x) classes a month (e.g. $33.75 x 4/classes = $135/month). Please note that some months will have more lessons than four (e.g. five), while other months will have fewer than four lessons (e.g. three). We offer multiple make-up lessons throughout the year if you happen to miss a class and have a Vacation Month system to hold your space when you are on a break.
