FEE:
The fees and dues for this class are posted within the Yahoo Group,
so join the group, and you'll find all the information there.
NOTE:
The class is also subject to cancellation without any
prior notice, and the class can be taught in ANY manner
the head instructor sees fit.
WEATHER:
In case of inclement weather or the threat thereof, class will
be postponed until the next weekend. If you are uncertain about
whether or not class is meeting due to poor weather, please err
on the side of safety. If there
was rain the night before and the ground may be soaked, there
will not be class. If it's sprinkling intermittently,
there is no class as the heavy moisture in the air is potentially
damaging for those with weaker immune systems, or chi (qi) energy
if you prefer. We don't spend our time learning healing
arts so we can stand outside and get sick.
