TUITION: sliding scale is $300, $375, and $450.
$300 = receiving support
$375 = I got me
$450 = providing support
this includes all materials and covers labor of instructors. those who pay the higher end support the lower end, and the middle tier covers themselves.
no one turned away for lack of funds.
payment plants available upon request.
in order to make this incredible skill accessible to everyone, if the lowest tier of tuition is a barrier, work-trade is an option. cost should not prevent anyone from getting to learn how to tan a hide! work-traders will spend around 4 hours to help set-up and clean-up from the weekend class.
*1 work-trade position is available per/class.

ACCESSIBILITY: hide tanning is very physically demanding, requiring hours of standing and scraping the hide with shovels, sticks, and knives. if you would like to bring a buddy to tag-team a hide as an accommodation to make it possible, there is an additional $50 teaching fee and I absolutely support you in it! if you have a child who wants to learn but isn’t ready to do their own hide, they are welcome to be a buddy!
