Just been having a recce on Raymondos site.
Does any one else here think that his courses are far too expensive and out of financial reach for them, I do and think that Ray has priced a lot of his fans, who would like to do a course, out of the market.... pity realy.
That may or may not be so hog but this topic has caused a lot of unhappiness and strife in the past. In fact I think it was aired just last month.
There are lots of good instructors in the UK and US so there is no shortage of choice.
Ray does not have a monopoly and the extra premium is simply for those who are more concerned with who teaches them rather than in the actual acquisition of skills.
I am happy if he can charge enough to run a large school with a full calendar and employ many people. If he dominates the top end of the market so what? Many people think they get good value for their money.
Ive seen complaints about their price but never about the experience.
What you need to ask yourself is why do you want to go to Wood lore particularly when there are others who are cheaper and just as good?
