Classroom Etiquette

• Some classes require a small amount of prep work (which will be communicated in the email sent two weeks before class) - please come prepared so you can jump right into the fun! 

• Classes with multiple sessions may require homework in order to complete the project, which will be outlined in email and class description. 

• Please bring a meal if your class extends through lunch and be mindful of strong odors. Beverages with lids are preferred.

• Put cell phones on silent/vibrate
