Pricing
(NOTE: Effective in our Fall Session of 2024, there will be change to our prices. To see these new prices, CLICK HERE.)
All lessons are held weekly and students commit to lessons by the session, but you can start at any time and we will pro-rate the payments below accordingly.
The Fall and Spring Sessions each last 5 months and there are 20 lessons in each session. We calculate the monthly payments by multiplying the price per lesson by the 20 lessons in the session. Then, we divide the total amount into five equal monthly payments. The Summer Session lasts 2 months and there are 8 lessons in that session. We calculate the monthly payments by multiplying the price per lesson by the 8 lessons in the session. Then, we divide the total amount into two equal monthly payments. Put simply, each monthly payment covers four lessons. For details about payment plans and pro-rating, scroll to the bottom of the page.
We have three pricing tiers. Most of our teachers fit into Tier 1 pricing. Click below to view a list of teachers in each tier. Most people find it very helpful to refer to our session calendar HERE while considering the pricing charts below. That page includes our complete lesson calendar along with tuition schedules for upcoming sessions.

Initial Deposit
We accept a one-time initial deposit when you register for lessons. This deposit includes a $25 registration fee plus the cost of your first lesson.
Late Fees
We guarantee timely payment to our instructors for all lessons that they teach. As a result, it can put a significant financial strain on the school to receive lesson tuition payments late. There is a nominal late fee of $10 for any monthly lesson tuition payments made after the due date. Invoices will continue to be sent 7 days prior to the start of each month. Invoices will be due on the 16th of each month. Late payments will be charged on any invoices that remain unpaid on the 17th. However, we invite all of our students to be in touch with us should financial difficulties arise. We are committed to keeping lessons affordable and are willing to work with all students who may be experiencing a temporary hardship. In addition, we are now offering the convenience of automatic monthly credit or bank account transactions to help avoid late payments (see below for details).
Automatic Payments
For our students’ convenience, we offer automatic monthly payments that can be drawn from your bank account or the credit card of your choice. State law requires that we receive your permission in writing in order to establish automatic monthly payments. To get started, print a copy of the automatic payment form. You can access it by clicking HERE. Fill it out and return it to us by mail or at any of our three locations. Detailed instructions are available on the form.
Starting in the Middle of a Session
Students can begin lessons at any time. We are glad to adjust your billing accordingly so that you do not pay for any lessons in the session that have already passed. Your first invoice will be reduced accordingly and then all subsequent payments will be in the standard amount. For example, a student taking 30-minute lessons beginning in the middle of October would pay a reduced balance up front for the month of October and then pay the normal monthly payment in November, December, and January.
