Guest newdancer Posted January 11, 2002 Report Share Posted January 11, 2002 Hi Everyone, I am going to take my first ballet lesson tomorrow. I'm very excited. I decided to go with a dance studio, and I am going to take a few private lessons, then join the class after a few weeks. I think I know the anwer to this question, but I did not know if it was different with dance as opposed to tennis lessons. After my lesson when I pay the instuctor her hourly fee for a lesson, should I tip her? Just wondering. Thanks everyone! Quote Link to comment
Xena Posted January 11, 2002 Report Share Posted January 11, 2002 I have never heard of anyone doing that. Private lessons cost an arm and a leg as they are. I have never done it, but that was in the UK where tipping isn't a requirement as it is here. So you tip your tennis coach? blimey, now you've got me worried.... Jeanette Quote Link to comment
Administrators Victoria Leigh Posted January 11, 2002 Administrators Report Share Posted January 11, 2002 newdancer, I don't believe it is customary to tip the teacher for a private lesson. Just pay the cost of the lesson. Quote Link to comment
Guest newdancer Posted January 11, 2002 Report Share Posted January 11, 2002 Xena & Victoria, Thank you for your quick replies. To clarify things, when ever I have taken tennis lessons, I never tipped the coach. I just thought it might be a little different in the dance world. But glad to hear it just the cost of the lesson. Private lessons in anything are never really cheap!!! Quote Link to comment
