FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I typically charge a $60 flat rate for a one hr. session and offer and intro pack of 3 classes for $150 so a client may get a good feel for how a regular yoga practice can improve or add to their lives. If someone has financial restrictions, I can work with them on a payment plan or alternate options. Also, if a client would like regular weekly sessions for an extended period, a larger discount can apply. Small private groups or couples, pricing subject to number of students, duration and location. Please don't let money be a factor in trying yoga, there are many options I can help guide you to. I have two studios I work at that both have very small classes and can be a great option to individual sessions.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We set up an initial phone meeting to talk about their goals and find out if we are a good fit. If they would like, we can also do an initial meet and greet so the client can get a better feel for my energy, especially if they would like sessions to be in their home. I want everyone to feel as comfortable as possible.
