✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Please try to let me know ahead of time which sessions you plan on attending. You're welcome to skip sessions that you don't think will help you (if you're taking the class right now, you probably don't need to attend content lessons) but I'd appreciate it if you let me know so I can tailor the course as needed.
