Sr. Grandmaster
Hi everyone.
I have been contacted by a fellow who does not live in my area but used to, and had trained with a Sifu in my style for a brief period some years ago. His Sifu has passed away and he wishes to continue with his training. He still has personal contacts in the area and is proposing that he come and train with me when he travels back here, and is asking for private sessions. I have no idea what a reasonable price would be for that, my overhead is minimal, I hold class in the park and pay a small fee to the city park and recreation department for each class that I hold. I also realize that the regional cost of living will have an impact on what is perceived as reasonable.
I am dis-inclined to put the squeeze on anyone, but he is adamant about wanting to pay me for my time.
So, I am interested I hearing the full range of what people charge or have seen charged, where people have actually happily paid the fee. Please give me the low-down. Thanks!
