In Person Coaching: NYC

Fee

I am continuing to charge my low fee of $70.00 per hour for In Person coachings. Once you confirm with me you will pay for all the arranged coachings in advance.

Payment must be received immediately when you arrange your coaching to confirm your time. I accept payments via VENMO or ZELLE

• You must arrange to have an accompanist with you for each coaching. We will not work with recorded accompaniment in these sessions. I will suggest some coach/accompanists to you if you have difficulty finding one.
• It is your responsibility to arrange and pay for the studio space in your name and your accompanist separately. See the SCHEDULING DROP DOWN Menu for more information.

Preparation

• Please bring 2 copies of the music: one for the accompanist and one for me. Please do not bring me your bound score, an ipad, or a copy with lots of notes written on it, but a clean copy on paper. I prefer my copy to be single sided “loose pages” and not taped together as you would for an accompanist.
• If your piece is not in French or English, I will need a legibly written word-for-word translation in English on the line of music: not a translation on another page, and not the existing English translation of the piece which is not word specific. 
• Your aria must be memorized “off book.”

Cancelation Policy

• I need 72 hours to cancel or move a coaching time at no cost to you, since it will take me that long to replace the hour with another artist. You may cancel or re-arrange coachings after that, but it will not affect any fees paid or owing.
• Please note: due to limited availability, there are NO refunds for Evening and Weekend coachings: once confirmed, you must pay for that time.

The Coachings take place at NEW YORK SPACES–Ripley-Grier Studios located on 8th Ave and 37th St, 16th floor.

• You can find them on the web at http://www.ripleygrier.com/ or by calling (212) 799-5433.
• You will rent the studio time in advance, and tell them you want a studio no smaller than 16-I.
• The following studios are too small for this work, so please do not use 16-A, B, C, R, S, V, W or X ; 17-G, J, K, or L; 10-B. You may find a map of the studios on their website.
• It is your responsibility to arrange and pay for your accompanist and the studio space in your name separately.
