Not sure if it is worth it?  Think about this...

How much would it be worth for you to have just 1 more student join or stay in your weekly classes each year?  What about 5 - 10 students?  What if you taught at one more yearly event?  What about 3 - 4?  What if you got paid an extra $100 - $1000 per weekend workshop you taught at?  What if all of the above happened?  The higher your level, the more you can take away from this weekend in the way of knowledge on how to bring in and keep more students as well increase your networking and income for future events.  The retreat creates an environment that can be a huge investment in your future.  Of course, as much as we will help, you will still need to be active in getting what you want.  Apply Now and be active in getting it!


Our Guarantee

If for whatever reason, you are not completely satisfied with the Teachers Retreat, we will refund your entire Tuition. 

"I've taken business leadership and personal development classes for years, and seldom gotten as much out of those as I did out of the dance retreat.  That's impressive, since those classes are often $3,000-5,000, and the dance retreat smokes 'em all for size and value.  Too bad my colleagues don't dance!"  Ted Maddry, Seattle, Washington


Price Comparison (Conversions from March 30th, 2009)

• Note: We know that the following camps are a full week long where as the Teachers Retreat is only 4 days.  Please keep in mind that the Teachers Retreat is limited to 12 people where these other events can have several hundred people.  And just for the record, we definitely recommend both of the following camps.  They are a blast!  At the same time, we believe the Teacher's Retreat will give you much more personal attention and take you to a much higher level of dance, teaching, &/or organizing than any other camp we have experienced.

Event	Tuition	Housing cost for double rooms	Food (3 meals per day)	Total	Notes
Herrang Dance Camp	$430	$350?*	$110 for 2 meals per day	$890+	*this is a low-ball guess based on past experience. BTW, go to Herrang too, it rocks!
Studio Hop Summer Camp	$350	$485	included	$835	Great Camp! Totally worth it!
Beantown Teachers Retreat	$395-495	$383	included	$878 or less	Best camp for teachers to improve!

Extra 2 days at Beantown = $158

• The retreat ends on Tuesday morning but Beantown continues until Thursday morning.  For the cost of food & housing for 2 days, you can stay, enjoy the food, the dances, and attend the Beantown classes (preferably to even out the L/F ratio).  This is a great opportunity and we highly recommend everyone takes advantage of it.  Trust us.... you won't want to leave come Tuesday morning.  :-)
