MISSED LESSON POLICY
Students are offered two make-ups per semester. Make-ups take place on the designated make-up dates for the semester. In the past I have offered time changes if I have a cancellation opening. But due to a need for greater time management and organization I am no longer able to accommodate time change requests. Thanks for your understanding!

If you miss a lesson you will receive a sign up email two weeks before the scheduled make-up Saturday.
