With Your Instructor

In the classroom you will be put into a small group of 2-3 students, where you will watch your instructor demonstrating each skill, then have the opportunity to practice it yourselves within your group.

There is no requirement for perfection or anywhere close to it – we just want to help you improve your skills and be confident to offer assistance when it’s required. It’s better to do something than nothing, and you can only make things better.
