Véronique’s classes are going to be taught as a hybrid of online and in-studio classes. This provide two advantages:
- All of the previously outdoor-only classes with be joining the existing online classes using Zoom.
- All of Véronique’s classes will now have a new in-studio attendance option with significant changes for COVID-19 safety that hopefully will continue to provide those who desire it, a valuable in-person practice experience!
If you would love to return to an in-person experience, but aren´t sure about the safety, here are a couple of suggestions that may help:
- Attend an online class and see for yourself if the studio setup looks safe (taking into account the totality of safety measures described here).
- Speak up! Let Véronique know your concerns and give her your input to improve student safety. Her contact info is at the bottom of every page on this site..
Kathe's classes are all in-studio only, no Zoom. Please pre-register.
Gina's classes are online only, no in-studio option at this time.
