We do our best to accommodate all students and usually are able to do this, but a class may be subject to cancellation if fewer than 3 students enroll.

Discounts: Several discounts are available: Register by September 5, and receive a 10% discount on class tuition prices. Also, students who enroll in an instrument class and also enroll in a 2nd group session receive a reduced rate on the cost of the group session.
