Due to summer holidays and travel, we will have a handful of dates that class will not be held.  I will keep my on-line calendar current for your reference: www.bahaia.com/calendar

To accommodate those dates and to provide flexibility for your own summer plans, I will allow students up to 2 months to use a 4-class card and through August to use an 8-class card. Of course, I encourage you to attend as consistently as possible to help you learn. At your first class, you will be issued a punch card to account for your classes.
