FAQs
Frequently-Asked Questions
WHAT'S INCLUDED IN MY MEMBERSHIP?

All of our membership levels entitle you to attend any weekly General Program (GP) drop-in class or weekend workshop/retreat at either of our locations — Huntington or Port Jefferson – at any time. We have a full program of classes in both locations and online. If you sign up for a membership level that includes a study program ($95/month or Benefactor Level of $195/month), then you are also entitled to join one of our Foundation Program (FP) or Teacher Training Program (TTP) classes.

The only thing not included in membership is the cost of Empowerments, certain retreats where we serve meals, and Special Guest Teacher events. Members pay a discounted fee for these types of events. 

WHEN WILL I GET BILLED?

Your credit card will automatically be billed the first of every month.

HOW CAN I UPGRADE MY MEMBERSHIP?

If you would like to move from an individual membership to an individual membership with a study program, or to the benefactor level, please send an email to membership@kmcli.org.
