Frequently Asked Questions About Events:

(click on the question to reveal the answer)

What are Academy credits?

With Academy credits, you can take classes that are outside of your membership level. For example, if you are an Academy-level student and want to take a Premier-level class, you can use (1) class credit to take the class. Learn more about Academy credits here.

How can I attend the class if I do not have the correct membership level?

You can attend any class, regardless of your membership level, by purchasing Academy credits. Then, use your credits for the classes you want to attend. Each class = 1 credit. Coaching events can not be purchased using credits and are only available as part of a membership.

Why can't I use class credits to attend coaching?

Group coaching is an incredible way to get feedback on your playing and make real progress. Students get to know one another and support each other. Having a student "pop in" for a session now and then changes the group dynamic, so we decided to only allow coaching sessions for members.

Do I need to register for an event?

No. You do not need to register for an event. However, registration guarantees you a slot. We allow 10 students to register for each event to lock-in their slot. Registration is also handy if you can not attend the event live.

If I don't register, does this mean I won't get any feedback?

Not necessarily. Depending on how many event registrations an event has, the teacher may have time to answer questions from event attendees who have not registered. This will be time dependent.

Do I need to attend coaching live in order to get feedback on my playing or answer my questions?

No, however you must register for the event to receive feedback. When registering, you'll see the option to choose if you will be attending the event live or not and you can submit your video and questions for feedback.

Where do I find the replays?

Go to the event page and click on the 'Event Replays' button. Or, click here to visit that page.

Can I edit my registration after submission?

Yes. After you register, you'll see your registration details on the event page. You'll also see your registration indicated on the main events page. To edit your registration, click the Edit Registration link. This is especially handy if your Youtube video is not quite ready for submission. This will allow you to register, then add your video before the event goes live.

I don't see a place where I can register! How do I register?

Event registration opens up (2) weeks before the start of the event. At that time the register button will become active. You can see the date registration will be available on the event page. Note - some events do not allow registration.

How do I submit my video for coaching feedback?

To submit your video, you need to upload it to Youtube and share the Youtube link when registering for the event. Here is a Youtube tutorial on how this works.
