Participants will have a weekly lesson for the duration of the session. Sessions run for six weeks. We want our services to be available to all who would benefit from them and charge only a nominal fee for our lessons. We never turn away a participant due to financial constraints and gladly offer scholarships from our program sponsors to anyone facing financial hardship.
