The usual way is to sign up for a year somewhere, and pick a fixed time during the week that you'll commit to be there. You pay a commitment fee and you pay your fees every month.
If you're sick, or there's a snow day, or you're traveling, or if it falls on a special day or some other commitment, or if you just can't make it there, you forfeit the lesson. You lose. If you have to quit your lessons mid-year, you pay a cancellation fee. You lose.
Fairfax Piano has a better way.
Here:
- You don't sign up for a year-long commitment.
- You don't commit to a specific day and time for the entire year.
- We don't tap into your checking account on a certain day every month.
- You are in control of how much you pay and when.
- There are no fees for rescheduling lessons, ever.
- There is no cancellation fee to stop lessons.
- You get the lessons that you pay for.
Our first meeting is free. No obligation. No pressure. We're confident that Fairfax Piano is right for you, but you are welcome to check it out and be sure of that for yourself.
You enroll for $50. It's not an annual fee; it never happens again after you start.
You purchase a lesson or a block of lessons in advance at a competitive price. With you, we schedule each lesson individually at the time of purchase. The lessons that you purchase have an expiration date associated with them, and the expiration date allows for flexibility in your schedule.
For example, you can purchase lessons in advance in a block of four lessons at a time - at $22 per lesson in our studio or $31 per lesson in your home. Lessons are valid for 40 days from the date of purchase, so if you are sick for a given week - or traveling or just unavailable - you have the flexibility to reschedule your lesson within those 40 days at no charge and no penalty. And when your last lesson rolls around, you simply buy another set of lessons and schedule that new set at that time.
Are those prices a good value? Click here.
You will get a receipt by email whenever you make a purchase, and your receipt will show you the lesson dates and times for each upcoming lesson, and you will get calendar invites for each lesson that you can import into your own calendar with a single click. Plus, you'll get an email and a text message an hour before your lesson to remind you!
So forget the fees. Forget the year-long commitments. There's a better way.
