Private Lesson Rates

Posted by Soferin

What is considered a reasonable price for a private lesson? (Not from a 5 time world champion at a workshop or anything, just from a well-trained, independent instructor or one at a reputable studio?

I'm trying to get a range so I don't get ripped off.

Thanks,
Sofia

The studio I used to teach at charged 80 dollars an hour which was a complete rip off.

All the teachers in the area that I know charge about 40 an hour.

Varies

There's going to be quite a bit of variation in the price based on a number of factors, I'm sure. But asking around should give you a decent idea of what teachers usually charge. A couple years ago, a member of our club made a list of some of the area teachers and what they charge per hour for lessons. Things may have changed a bit, but it looks like the average cost here is about $60 +/- around $10 or so.

Don't know if this is your goal

But if your wanting to compete, try to get an idea of how much they would also charge for a comp. It might be worth going with a bit more pricey instructor for a break at a competition.
