Notes About Allyson’s Classes!

• Classes are taught live from Allyson’s home studio.

• Each class features 2 cameras - a hand camera so you can see close ups of every detailed demo, and a face camera for face to face interaction.

• Classes are kept small so everyone gets the personal attention they need to succeed!

• Each class will be recorded and sent out to everyone to make it easy for student’s to rewatch important moments, or if a student needs to miss a live class.

• After each class has 10 students sign up to attend the live classes, a recording only option will open up at 60% of the cost of the class. If you sign up for the recordings only option you won’t have access to attend the live classes, but you will be sent the recordings every week and be able to email Allyson any questions you have along the way.
