A 20% deposit* of $1379.70 (includes 5% GST tax) is required to register, and is due by October 30, 2024 at latest. Registration deposit is due upon acceptance into the program so you may be making your deposit earlier to hold your spot.

All intensives will take place on Saltspring Island, BC. (This is a ferry ride nearby the city of Vancouver).
