CLASS DESCRIPTIONSFollowing is a description of a series of three eight-week classes. Each class can be taken independently based on your existing skill level or taken from the beginning if you are new to bridge.

In other words, feel free to "mix and match" to suit your personal time schedule, learning pace or experience level. 1. Basic Bidding TechniquesBasic Bidding Techniques is the focus of the first eight-week class in this series. The class length is 2 hours.
