💰 Get Paid for Trial Classes

Trial lessons are always free for students, but your time and effort are fully rewarded.

🎁 Backup Bonus Fund

For every completed lesson, you receive an additional 2–7 Rands (depending on your Tier) into a dedicated sub-account — your personal safety net.

You can use this fund for:

  • Illness
  • Travel / time off
  • Holidays (e.g. Christmas)
  • Equipment repairs
