What's the difference between a Live Course and an On-Demand course?
The Live Courses feed our On-Demand Course Library. Eventually, all Live Courses are released into the Course Library and are available for all of our subscribers to watch.
We are currently on schedule to release one course into the Course Library per month.
We understand that Live Courses can be expensive. But if you are an Annual subscriber you can watch the Live Courses with a free reserved seat. It makes the Annual Subscription a fantastic value.
You can sign up for a Live Course if you do not want to wait for the release into the Course library to watch the course material. Also, the Live Courses are a lot of fun, you can interact with the instructors and other students, ask questions and receive feedback from the artist.
