Holiday classes and 2016 Workshops

To my local students, some information about classes over the holidays as well as my new workshop schedule:

In addition to my regular schedule this month, I'll also be teaching 2 holiday-themed classes on the mornings of December 24 (Christmas Eve) and December 31 (New Year's Eve).
