Classes for people who live too far to attend a class on a regular basis

If you are in the area or come especially to take classes you can take all the classes offered on my schedule during your stay. You can also stay at the studio between the morning and evening classes to work independently.

Two options are offered:

If you come on Thursday morning you can take morning and evening class on Thursday and Friday (4 classes). You are welcome to stay between classes for studio time.
The cost: $200.

If you come on Monday morning you can also take 2 classes on Monday (total 6 classes). On Tuesday and Wednesday you will have studio time and individual tutoring.
The cost: $300.

The studio is located right off a main street where you will find everything you need (grocery stores, post office, restaurants, fast food, drug stores, entertainment and shopping). You will hardly need to rent a car. A shuttle or BART will bring you from SF and Oakland airport. For BART schedule see http://www.bart.gov/index.asp; for bus schedule see www.actransit.org.

Hotels are available at reasonable prices a bus ride away from the studio.

Separate fully equipped units in several houses at walking distance from the studio are available for short period rentals:
