question:              Do you do private lessons? and how much do you charge if so?

Hey Carlos, I don’t do private lesson myself but there are a lot of opportunities to get excellent coaching.  We have several NCAA champions, All-americans, and Olympic Hopefuls training in State College that might be interested in giving private lessons.  We have the NLWC that I am a part of and all of our staff as well.  That might be a good bet.  And then there are our summer camps that the campers get a lot of 1-on-1 attention.   Hope that helps.  Best of luck
