What to Consider Before Choosing
The school does not offer trial lessons, so before enrolling, it is advisable to attend an open lesson or open day (by prior arrangement). For in-person courses, a visa (Schengen or student) is required, and the process may take up to 2 months. Online courses are available without a visa. Prices do not include accommodation — check accommodation options with the manager.
