Remote Live Class
This remote live class is five, one-hour sessions allowing a family to learn from Jason in an interactive way from the comfort of their own home. The sessions will be recorded, and participants will receive a private link to the recording. That way if a spouse, student, or the whole family is unable to attend during the scheduled time, they will still get the information.
