How are we different from trad'l school?
- Pace
- listen very closely to everything
- everything is condensed (we only have 12 weeks)
- There is an ocean of things you still won't know
- Instructors
- No manicured, 10 yr old lesson plans
- Cutting edge, constantly evolving
- Trust them! We don't do busy work or frivolous teaching
