Hi everyone,

I am very sorry about having to cancel class yesterday, but I wanted to make sure that no one was traveling in bad weather.
We have students with various needs and some who travel from long distances so safety is my upmost concern. We will always have a make up class is there is a cancellation. For the future, please check this page or your email in the event of inclement weather or you can text me at 845 721-2493.

We will be having a Zoom make up class this Friday 2/27 at 6pm. Let me know if you will be attending and I will send you an invite.

Thanks and dream of spring!
