Group Classes
Ethos' group classes offer kids the opportunity to learn in a fun and supportive environment. Students engage with their instructor and peers as they learn to work and play together as a group. Ethos offers group classes for students ages 5 and up, including all-ages and intergenerational classes.
We offer discounted rates for students qualifying for OHS and SNAP benefits. Families who don’t qualify for those programs may still be eligible for reduced rates based on their income and household size.
