Details about weekly classes
Registration for all weekly classes is handled via email. Please include the time and date of the class or workshop you will be attending, and whether you will bring your own hoop or wish to buy or rent a hoop for the class. You will receive an invoice and link to pay online with your credit card or PayPal account. Your space in the class will be reserved once full payment is received. If a session is not full, drop-ins are $20 per class, and include the use of my hoops if you provide 24hrs notice, otherwise you must bring your own hoop to class. Rent a hoop for four classes for $20 or buy a hoop for $40 - see the Hoop Shop page for sizing and taping options and upgrades.
New advance registration procedure:
As of April 2,2008, spaces will no longer be held for continuing or returning students. Registration for all classes will be first-come, first-served, upon receipt of full payment for the spot. Full-time students or starving artists can contact me to arrange installment payments.Missing a class? If the session is full, and you are able to give me at least 24hrs notice that you will be away, I will attempt to fill your space with a drop-in student. If this happens, I will refund you $15 for that session's class. This is the only exception to my cancellation policy.
Cancellation policy:
Fall/Winter sessions: If you withdraw 72 hours notice before the session begins, I will issue a full refund or credit. 24 hours notice before the session begins, partial refund or credit. Less than 24 hours notice, no refund or credit.
Spring/Summer sessions: 30 days notice before the session begins is required for a full refund. Partial refunds or credits may be given if less than 30 days notice is provided, depending on overall class registration, and will be determined once the class is in session.
Waiting lists: If a session is full, ask to be placed on a waitlist for the session or for individual classes. When a session space opens up, it will be offered via email to the people at the top of the waitlist first. If a space for a single class opens up, it will be emailed to everyone on the waitlist, and given to the first responder.

Private or Custom Hoop Play Sessions
Along with the workshops and classes outlined above, I also do private sessions for individual hoopers who prefer one-on-one coaching or who want to arrange a fun group session for special events. Email me to discuss all the options!
