A: Not yet! Please wait until you are ready to commit to the chosen lesson days/times to submit your form.

A: Unfortunately, no. There may be options for lesson swaps during the summer, but we recommend only choosing dates that you know you can commit to now. We cannot honor refunds or reschedules after tuition has been paid for summer lessons.
