Schedule:
Please refer back to this page often, just in case something comes up. Since this is a Competition focused organization, one of the primary reasons a practice may be canceled, is for competitions within driving distance. Mr. Corbett is an active competitor in the area, and attends as many as possible. We encourage all students to attend these competitions, even if only as a spectator, as watching how they are ran, and hearing competitors is part of the learning process.
Since at this time, there is only one instructor, and we have the room for only 1 hour at a time. Instead of 1:1 lessons, and people joining (and some leaving) on a weekly basis, It is necessary to be organized into "classes". a class will officially begin on a specific date, this being preceded by one or 2 weeks of introductions, and material ordering and payments.
Classes may begin approximately every quarter, and remain together as a class as long as needed. If a student falls substantially behind the class they are with, they may be asked to drop back to another class which is in progress, but farther back in the curriculum, or wait for the next class to start. This is to insure a class, on the whole, can continue to progress.
