PRIVATE AND THERAPEUTIC: Usually $75 per hour for personal tuition and written, diagrammed practice. Scholarships are widely available (see below). 

GROUP and CORPORATE rates are flexible. Please call for more information: (434) 977-0030.

CANCELLATION POLICY: Private classes should be cancelled the night before, unless there is a medical/family emergency.

NOTE ON RECESSION CONCERNS & SCHOLARSHIPS:

A student usually starts and sustains independent practice (with free, phone supervision and input from me, if needed) in two sessions over a three-week period.

Other people, who have a history of starting health programs and abandoning them, often do better with a higher frequency of classes and lower charges.  I am doing my best to honor the needs of sincere, means-limited students within my schedule.

Even though I am trained in skills such as program adaptation and student motivation, I am not a personal trainer.  Therefore regular weekly follow-ups are not the goal.  Eventually my students learn to practice independently. In monetary terms, even at the higher hourly rate, this works out to about $2 per practice hour over a six-month period.  As you practice you know with confidence where your attention needs to be directed for the maximum benefit.  That kind of guidance (which I still receive from my teacher) is invaluable!

There are free group classes offered by Charlottesville Yoga School and the Guerilla Yoga Project, both of which are preferable for anyone not yet ready for a home practice.

Union's pro-bono work represents about 30%-40% of my teaching schedule, depending on the year.
