Disclaimers: Reschedule requests made within 24hrs may be allowed, subject to availability. Same-day cancellations and no-call/no-shows will result in being charged for the scheduled lesson. In-Person Lessons: There are three pets (two dogs, one cat) at my in-home studio. The dogs bark at first, but are secured in the opposite side of the house for the duration of all lessons. The cat sometimes roams, but keeps to himself.
