Adult Group LessonsLearning is fun - especially when you are in a group with others of your own ability. Meet new friends and work on common goals under the guidance of a professional instructor.
You can choose from 2 or 4 hour lessons, which provide the time for individual feedback and practice. A group normally consists of four to eight people of similar abilities. Reservations are not necessary and group lessons are offered for all ability levels twice a day. If there is only one person in the group, the lesson will be 1 hour. Adult Group Lessons are for students age 13 and older.
