Class Outline
Class starts Sunday, July 13, and will last for six weeks. Classes are coordinated via a private forum and you will receive individual attention from our instructors, Greg Groess, and Mike Russell. You will receive new instructions and materials at the start of each week. Your assignments may be completed by you at any time during the week.
To join the class, buy a Curvemeister 101 class "ticket" at the Curvemeister store. Within the next few minutes, you'll receive an email with a link to the Class board. This is a special private section of the Curvemeister forum, where you will create a membership and post a short note that you have enrolled in the Sunday, July 13 class. You may enroll anytime up to and including the first week of class.
