If a class is noted as "WAIT LIST", it's still in your best interest to sign up and plan to attend the first class meeting. We sometimes have no-shows. Worst case scenario is that you attend the first class as our guest. Best case, you get into the class!

Cancelations are possible until the end of the first class, less a $15 charge to cover our fees. After the first class, all sales are final. You may be able to move a registration to a future class.

Our waiver form is here:

Adult Student Waiver: Adult Class Waiver Form (please fill out within 72 hours of attending the class)
