Tuition Change
Tuition has remained at $90/$135 per month since 2015, and this year we are implementing a 5% increase to reflect cost of living increase:
30 minute lesson from $90 to $94 per month
45 minute lesson from $135 to $141 per month
New tuition fees will be in effect September 1. If this is a financial difficulty for you, please talk to your teacher about scholarship options.
