Class Location: Valley Forge National Historical Park (King of Prussia, PA) and surrounding local parks.
Date and Time: The class usually meets most Saturday mornings (class time may vary based on the number of participants and time of the year). No experience is necessary for most sessions. For advanced classes (which will be clearly indicated), we prefer that you have a lesson in the basic technique before joining the group. The lesson can be arranged at a mutually convenient time.
We blast an email a few days prior to each Saturday walk as our locations are weather-dependent. If you would like to be added to our mailing list, please email us at byfootagain@gmail.com with your name and information and we are happy to add you to our list.
Private Classes: One-on-one classes are available upon request. Contact byfootagain@gmail.com for more information.
