Our usual year around Rates for Group, Semi-Private or Private Lessons

    (a) Private Lesson
    Just one solo lesson is $95.00, and that rate is the same for a couple as it is just one person alone taking a lesson, and it does not double if it is for two people; it is still just $95.00.
    There is a bonus of a $30 saving if students pay for 4 lessons of 1 hr each in advance, for total of $350.00.
    For very first time student, a holding fee of $20 per person is required for holding the time slot foe their first lesson, and this is payable in PayPal slot shown below, by clicking on the "Single~Large Group classes" etc., top line item shown at $20 per person. Students then only pay the remaining balance of the lesson upon the taking of the first private lesson. That balance is payable only in cash or a check.
    After first lessons,  no holding fee is required.

    (b) Group
    Courses
    A single class per person is normally $20.00 (occasionally it is slightly higher but only if group size is very small-see "Group Rates" below for more info).
    All group lessons are payable as you go, in a class by class payment, cash or check

    c)Wedding Package
    This is $350 for 4 private lesson hours. Please be aware that there is no refund in wedding packages. In order to take advantage of the wedding package, the payments should be done by the first lesson.
    (d) Semi-Private
    Group rates vary according to number of people in a class. The rates have three levels. As a bonus, please notice that rates drop as groups continue studying. The rates below are for the first month of study, only. If a group continues onward to a 2nd month of study, their rates drop very considerably because they are under rates for "special privilege" groups.
Group Rates:
  • Large Group : That means over 5 couples; each person pays $20 per class.
  • Small group: That means 3-4 couples.  Each couple pays $25 a person per class.
  • Small semi-private: That means 2 couples. Each person pays $30 per class.
  • In this category of SEMI-PRIVATE GROUP CLASS; To cancel a lesson, a group leader will have a window of 24 hours to give Mr. Everitt verbal phone. No missed classes may be refunded or taken in a make-up. A weekly decision by the whole group will be made during a class toward choosing a date for the next class. No parties from the class other than the group leader may make this cancellation. No members of the group who miss a class are entitled to credit or refund or transfer of the class to another person to take it for them or to have credit for a make-up class.

Cancellation Policies
The following policies apply for private or group classes if a student decides to cancel on the same day as their pre-arranged appointment.
(a) Private
All private lessons are required to cancel (by phone or in person only and not by email) at least 24 hours prior to an assigned date, regardless of conditions. Matters related to personal or work schedule problems, medical appointments, family matters, travel problems, etc. are not allowed for requesting a refund or a make-up more than once. After that, it is up to the teacher as to whether any discretion should be allowed for future missed classes without a 24-hour notice. Payments for missed lessons without a 24-hour notice are mandatory after the 2nd missed class without notice.
(b) Group - Missed Classes and Make-Up Classes

The same rules for "missing a class" apply as above in private class. In addition, the policy regarding "missed classes" is as follows; if a student misses any of the 4-week course classes, he or she must take their make-up classes within the prescribed 4-week period of their course by taking classes twice a week at some point, if possible* (see conditions below.) They must take any class in any style of dance which is available for their make-up even though it may not be the same type, as long as it is within the skill level. For example if a beginner is taking beginner Tango and misses, and no other duplicate Tango beginner class is held in that course, then they must choose between a beginner level Swing, or Ballroom, or Salsa. We guarantee that the student will improve their skills within the course they chose by also taking any other style.

* If there are no classes happening simultaneously in the same time period in the skill level, then a student may have a "rain check" for their missed class, and take the class in either the next 4-week period with next month (the "follow-up course" of their own class course), or they may have a refund for one class if there is not to be a follow-up course or another same level class to begin within the upcoming two months.

The student may not receive a refund for more than one class per 4-week course: if he or she misses more than one class, they may not receive an automatic 2nd free make-up class.


We very strongly advise to take make-ups in ANY style you can! Those who do take other styles than the one they are already taking always improve more than other students, and even more important, their dance awareness grows GREATLY.

f someone's partner cannot come on any given night, and the single person wants to come without them, they really should. That is customary.
