Venue rental cost per session (optional)

⚠️ Instructors are responsible for paying venue costs upfront. OpenClass does not reimburse venue fees.

e.g. Church Health Center charges $25/hr. A 3-hour class = $75 venue cost.

Monthly liability insurance cost

All OpenClass™ instructors are required to carry General Liability insurance. We recommend Thimble — approximately $25/month.

Teaching more classes lessens the impact of this cost.
