Important Information

  • Wheelchair users have enjoyed the class before, but the building in which the class will take place does not have an elevator. Please keep an eye on your email inbox after booking the experience, as I'll be in touch to ask if you have any dietary requirements. Most of these can be accommodated for, although unfortunately strict Kosher is not possible at this time.
