Questions

Pricing FAQ.

Is the trial lesson really discounted? +

Yes — the trial lesson is intentionally priced lower ($35 virtual / $45 in-home) so you can meet your instructor and experience a full lesson with zero risk before committing to a package.

Do rates differ between Chicago and Milwaukee? +

No — we charge the same rates in both markets. Our pricing reflects the quality of instruction and the convenience of in-home service, which is the same regardless of location.

What if I need to cancel or reschedule? +

We ask for at least 24 hours notice for cancellations or reschedules. Lessons cancelled with less than 24 hours notice may be charged in full. Life happens — we're reasonable, just communicate with us.

Can I switch between virtual and in-home? +

Yes, with notice. Rate adjustments apply if switching lesson types. Many families use virtual lessons as a backup when schedules get busy.

Are packages auto-renewed? +

Monthly packages renew each month. You can pause or cancel with one week's notice before your next billing cycle. No long-term contracts.

When do you plan to accept credit cards? +

We're working on integrating secure card payments via Stripe and expect to have it available soon. In the meantime PayPal, Venmo, and checks are all accepted.
