@ £3 per half hour (so £6 per hour)

200 people x 6 lessons each x £6 per lesson = £7,200

I'm assuming nothing.

I'm going by the normal fees she quotes on her own website.

Ordinarily, she'd teach 333 people, at £3.00 per half hour, as priced on her website, to earn £1,000.00, (actually it's £999.00).

It ain't rocket science.

It's very straightforward.

If you're trying to suggest her £1,000.00 fee is a bargain, you're barking...up the wrong tree.

So we, the public, can try and evaluate the worth of the project, are you saying that the costs involved for the whole flash mob dance is £1,000.00?

Absolutely no other funding costs?

If not, would we be allowed to know what the costs are, so we can better decide the events worth and value?

Please could the figures be kept in the public domain, since it's a public forum, even though I appreciate the answers sent privately to me?

It's of interest to us all, not just myself.
