Registration/Cancellation

While most classes are drop-in, certain classes or workshops may require registration. If a class requires registration, we suggest that you register EARLY to secure your space in class. It is highly recommended that you register on-line to secure your place in class. If dropping in, arrive approximately 10 minutes before the scheduled start time for the best chance of securing your space in class. After on-line registrants, classes are first come, first admitted.
Advanced registration can be done by paying on-line or by calling us

If you called to register and are unable to attend class, please call us to cancel or reschedule at least 48 hours prior to your scheduled class time. If you registered on-line, please cancel on-line. If you do not cancel prior to class you will be marked as attended and your class will be forfeited.

We require this so that we may offer the space to another student.
