Mini-private Lessons*
Can't afford a full hour or half hour private lesson? How about fifteen minutes? Late Sunday morning, shortly before classes start, all of our instructors will be individually available from 11:45am to 12:45pm, for 15-minute mini-private lessons.
Only students who are attending the full weekend or the full day of classes on Sunday will be eligible to sign up for mini-privates. Each instructor will have 4 mini-private lessons available (11:45am, 12:00noon, 12:15pm and 12:30pm). Sign-up is first-come, first-served. You may sign up for one mini-private with each instructor.
You may sign up for mini-private lessons starting at check-in on Friday night. There will be a sign-up sheet at the registration desk. Each mini-private will cost a dollar a minute ($15). You must pay in cash for your mini-private at the time you sign up.
Mini-private lessons can be transferred between registrants, but all sales are final. To transfer your mini-private, go to the registration desk and let them know the time of your mini-private, the instructor, and who has purchased it from you. We do not handle payment arrangements between the two of you — when you tell us to transfer your mini-private, we assume that the two of you have dealt with this.
You are responsible for being ready to begin your mini-private lesson on time. As the mini-privates are scheduled back-to-back and there is only an hour reserved for them, be aware that if you are late, but arrive during your time slot, you will only have however much time is left in your slot for your mini-private; if you arrive after your time slot has ended, you won't be able to have your mini-private.
To get the most out of your time during the mini-private, we suggest that you come with one or two questions for the instructor. The more specific the question(s), the easier it will be for the instructor to help you with what is important to you.

*A special thank you to Rochester's Snow Bound Blues, where we first experienced the wonderfulness of mini-private lessons. Our experience was so powerful that we decided to incorporate them into ABQFX.
