Register for weekly lessons for the full academic year, September through June

Payment Methods
We accept MasterCard, Visa, Discover, and American Express. Payments may also be made by cash or check. A fee of $35.00 will be added to a student’s account for bounced checks or declined credit cards. If a family has selected an automatic payment plan with a credit card that has been replaced, please notify us to avoid NSF fees.
Payment Plans
To help ensure that class and private lesson costs are manageable, we offer a payment plan option at no additional cost. Payments are scheduled with the first installment due before the first scheduled class or private lesson and full payment must be received one month before the last scheduled class or private lesson.
All students enrolled in a payment plan must provide a credit card to be kept on file for automatic scheduled payments. If this is not possible, you must meet with the Education Director to make alternative arrangements. However, the payment plan must be converted to a credit card on file if scheduled invoice payments are missed.
We reserve the right to suspend class or lesson attendance due to non-payment of scheduled tuition payments.
