What happens if I need to miss a week?

All the roads around the library are free to park on.

How big are the class sizes?

We like to keep our classes small so that everyone has enough teacher time. We generally have a maximum of 8. If there are more people wanting to join the class then we will have 2 teachers to make sure everyone still has enough teacher time.

Yes, we have everything that you need but feel free to bring in your own machine and equipment.
