When I taught before, class was 30 bucks a month for 2 days a week.
When I open my new school in the next few months it will be 5 bucks per class or 25 bucks per month, 2 days a week.
Most of you probably think that is dirt cheap, but in the area I live in, the economy is not good and that is pretty much what is charged, although my rates are a bit cheaper. It also helps that I own the building and have pretty much no overhead.
I look at my Kung Fu from this standpoint, if someone has the will and desire to learn, I will teach them. I am not their babysitter, psychiatrist (I wish I could charge those rates) or anything else. I do consider myself a friend and a coach/instructor, nothing more, nothing less.
