Until we find out whether the studio can recover from the lack of opportunity created by the scaffolding outside, we've decided not to schedule classes in advance. Rather, here is a list of classes that Christine can teach if people are interested. If something piques your interest and you'd like to schedule something with Christine, let me know at the studio or post below and Christine can get together with you to schedule something.
