rates & paymentPayment is by cash only: $60 per 30 minutes; $90 per 45 minutes; $120 per 60 minutes.
cancellations The cancellation policy is 72 hours. Lessons cancelled after this period are not eligible to be rescheduled. Illness and severe weather are acceptable exceptions.
frequencyThe expectation is weekly lessons, as this is far superior to biweekly, both in terms of development and scheduling. Occasional absences due to unavoidable reasons is acceptable.
practice You should generally have the time to practice at least five days a week. For the occasional weeks when this isn't possible, you should compensate by practicing longer on other days. Adequate practice is a requirement to have a lesson. If have not prepared come lesson time, the lesson should be cancelled. If there's a consistent lack of practice, lessons will be discontinued.
