Classes run in 6-week series at a variety of locations around Little Rock, with typically 1 or 2 classes running at any given time.

Private lesson pricing is straightforward: $85 for a single lesson (1 or 2 people, with a partner at no extra charge), $300 for a 4-lesson package, or $560 for 8 lessons. Groups of 3–4 people add $25 per additional guest per session. Private lessons require 24 hours' notice to cancel or reschedule.
