$25 & UP : SPONSOR
Giving over $20 supports my ability to sustain classes and supports community members who face money barriers.
$20 : STANDARD
This is the bare-bones cost of running classes. Dancers paying under $20 are underwritten by other dancers and me.
$15 : SUBSIDIZED
When you're able to meet basic needs but have little to no expendable income.
When paying for class is a sacrifice that does not create hardship.
$10 : SPONSORED
When you're struggling to meet basic needs, and paying more would create real hardship.
Bottom line : I do not exclude people due to finances.
I set class fees from three commitments: transparency, sustainability, and solidarity.
Transparency:
Offering these classes is not profitable.
I don't offer a 'pay what you want' sliding scale. I use compassionate pricing, which requires mutual honesty to succeed.
Sustainability:
Sustaining regular classes without creating barriers for dancers or undermining myself is tricky.
If you need subsidized fees, that's totally okay and welcome. Please increase your fee if your financial picture improves.
Solidarity:
I give my solidarity by offering reduced fee options and welcoming anyone who can't pay.
I request your solidarity by choosing your class fee from integrity.
