Class Descriptions

Self-Paced Learning

  • Life is busy. Time is limited. We know that attending our online group classes might not fit your schedule.
  • To help you get the information you want in a way that fits your schedule, we have designed a series of online lessons, or modules as we call them, so that you can learn in a way that works for you!
  • How long will it take? That is up to you. We have divided our classes into a series of 7 lessons so that you can break it up and move through at your own pace. Work as fast or as slow as you'd like. If you have questions along the way, we are here to help!
