Besides learning how to dance, what are some other reasons people take lessons?

How do you charge for dance lessons and what's the cost?

How often do you recommend your clients take a class with you? Do they need to practice outside of class?

Yeuell: "I recommend a minimum of two classes a week. In general, we recommend practice."

How far in advance does someone need to schedule lessons with you before they can start?

Yeuell: "There's no advance notice. We have drop-in classes."

Lolachy: "A week."

Chasteen: "Classes are drop in, but for private coaching it's good to schedule a day or so in advance."
