Or just pay it all at once - do what works for you!

How Much Do Classes Cost?

Classes range from $40–$85, depending on length and how spicy the skill level is. This cost covers your seat in the class and your class kit.

Your ticket includes a $75 class credit. Anything beyond that can be added à la carte.

Final Heads-Up:

We’re keeping this event intentionally small and sass-filled.
Tickets are limited and all sales are final—no exceptions, no takesies-backsies.
