I did a brief survey of the local dance and gymnastic schools in my
area. Generally, the dance schools have the lowest tuition ranging
from
$75 - $145 a month. The lower tuition schools (like the $75 a month)
is
typically for 1 class a week.
The Gymnastic Centers range from $80 - $275 a month. One gymnastic
school charges $400 a month for a "level 9" student. At that elite
level they are allowed to train every day. That same school charges
$250 a month for something called "level 3" which is 2 classes a
week.
The lower cost tuitions were usually gymnastics that were associated
with an existing dance school or fitness center. The higher tuitions
were stand-alone dedicated facilities.
Do not we, as martial arts professionals, make a greater impact on
society with our instruction? Maybe yes, maybe no... you tell me.
One thing I'd like to know, is what percentage of the population is
involved in dance, gymnastics and martial arts.

My son's drum lessons were $125.00 a month for 1/2 an hour once a
week!
side note on this he would not teach unless paid?
perhaps I should start along those paths.
Should nice sensei go away?
