Each party may request up to 2 additional riders (those not participating in a lesson) to ride in our courtesy shuttle. If there is space in the shuttle, we are happy to bring those additional riders in our shuttle. The exception is for minors 12 years old or younger; we require and guarantee one parent or guardian to ride along in the shuttle.
