What level are your classes?

All classes are from very beginning to intermediate, unless stated otherwise. Because they are no larger than 9 students I can give attention to everyone of different levels. I also assign and correct homework every week.

If I miss a week can I make it up?

If you know you’re going to miss a week tell me and I’ll tell you what to do while your out so you won’t be behind and then you can pick up where we are when you return. There is no prorating the number of classes though because the classes are very small and I’ll help catch your progress up so you won’t fall behind if you are serious about learning the skills. (I’m there whether you’re there or not.) So you do need to make it up.

Is there parking nearby?

My studio is on a nice street in Mar Vista 2 miles east of Venice beach, and one mile off the Venice blvd exit of the 405 fwy. Its very centrally located in Los Angeles. You don’t need to step up into the studio so it’s even okay for wheelchair. Parking is on the street and a short walk to my backyard. There’s plenty of light and its a very safe neighborhood.

How do you sign up and pay for class?

Just email me to hold your place. You can give me a check the first week of class. If you want to pay with credit card you will need to pay the fee that goes with it. I take Venmo or Paypal, also.
