BAD WEATHER POLICY: SAFETY FIRST! I use the Ontario 511 app to check the road conditions on all the roads in the area two hours before class start time. If the roads are anything other than “black”, then we postpone class, and add another class at the end of the session. I also use The Weather Network to check for weather advisories that may affect conditions later in the day.

 

MISSED CLASS POLICY:
There are no refunds or makeup classes available for group classes, but I will review the missed lessons and help you catch up next class.

The studio is located at 4353 Queens Ave, Ailsa Craig, ON N0M 1A0, which is actually in Nairn, a small community just outside of Ailsa Craig, 20 minutes Northwest of London.
