Congratulations! I have no experience with websites, but I'm so happy and proud of you for doing this!! Wish I lived over there so I could be your student : )

aww, thanks, jade! ❤️ i wish you lived here, too!!
That is awesome Tarah! Congrats!
I think it looks great! Makes me want to go for a trip :).
very nice design! I think you should just add some more information like prices, do you teach groups or only one-on-one classes etc. And I couldn´t find your company details, I think the laws for websites might be the same as here in germany. It should include your name, adress, email, tax number and a disclaimer can be good, too. There are some websites which create it for you, you just have to fill in some information about you and then you can copy it

I am going to figure out how to take a class from you when I have a layover there!! Congrats lady!! It looks amazing
How fun you're starting teaching🌸! The site looks nice and clean! Good luck with everything😀.

thanks everyone! 😀 i plan on adding a few more pages to the website. @emotioncatcher - so far, i don't have a company or LLC. maui doesn't seem to have any laws about teaching classes out of your home. for example, there is a tomato farm up the road that has a yoga studio. i don't think there are any laws for websites here that i know of.. and i am going to add another page on classes. i will probably be doing mostly private lessons (or small groups) since i only have the two poles. i haven't made any prices yet. i may just do it by donation, or sliding scale, $10-$20. just to keep it simple. @kaylie - yay! it will be great to meet you!
you lucky girl! It´s very complicated to teach here in Germany, too many laws xD Good luck with your little studio! :)

thanks, emotioncatcher!! 🌸
Looks like you're off to a great start! I would definitely include legal language about waivers, disclaimers of liability, etc. in there. Not to scare people, but to protect yourself.
Congrats on your studio! Wish I was closer.

Congrats! ❤️
Good job Tarah 😉 I agree with the girls, maybe a little bit information. Go take a look on other website you might get a few clue on what you could add on yours...good luck!

thank you so much everyone for the advice! ❤️ @polergirl - i was hoping it would be enough to have every student sign a waiver on real paper, lol, when they first arrive. when i took some classes at the other studio on the island, i had to sign a waiver before my first class. but maybe she also has something on her site. will def. go and look! by the way her name is amanda, and her studio is the pole room in lahaina (northwest shore). i am on the north shore "upcountry" @horsecrazy - i wish everyone were closer, LOL. thanks, honey! @veena - thank you!!!!! @tigger - thank you!!!!!
Congtratulations Tarah! Woohoo wow good on you for starting teaching! Your studio looks beautiful, and I'm no expert on websites either, but I like the look if it so far. Good luck with everything! :)
Congratulations!!!

Awesome and exciting! If you have any kind of small business association/group close to you, they can probably help with requirements needed for a business in your area.

thanks everyone!! ❤️
very nice and clean setup... Ps. www.godaddy.com has some great prices for website stuff.
heres my site for you to see as an example. I did it myself, and I AM NOT computer inclined at all. www.pegasuspilates.com

@ pegasusaerial - thank you!!
Congratulations! Now there is one more travel destination to dream about :) Regarding site- I agree with others that I would love to see approximate price list so I am aware what to expect. Also- but this can be only my thing- I do not really trust sending my questions through web-forms (they get lost, I cannot track when I sent tnem etc), therefore I would prefer if there were your contacts in contact page. I love that there are pictures about your study and yourself, as this is something showing what your future students can expect :)
