IMPORTANT NOTICE

I am currently modifying how I offer/teach my funshops. Listed below are the types of funshops I have offered and will probably continue to offer. I can also custom design a funshop based on what it is you want to learn.

I prefer to offer funshops for groups of 3-7 people. If you have a group of people that want to take a funshop, contact me to set up a date and time.

I also offer private one-on-one lessons for $40/hour

I am teaching two classes Albany Parks & Recreation (541.917.7777).
