Workshops: These intensives are scheduled periodically throughout the year, usually leading up to major competitions and events. 

​

Private lessons: One-on-one lessons are available upon request. Contact Megan at theharperacademy@gmail.com for scheduling and pricing.

 

Dancers will be evaluated and placed in the appropriate class for which the student is best suited.

Competition level is not always the deciding factor for class levels.
