Scholarships

Sheila Kelley's S Factor seeks to empower as many women as possible with our liberating movement. Realizing that, at times, life's obstacles may make it impossible to pay for classes, S Factor has two scholarship programs available for current students: Work Study and The S Fund.

 

Work Study

Our phenomenal Work Study women assist our Front Desk Ambassadors with various tasks that keep our busy studios running smoothly. The hours you work are used to cover half the cost of your Original Series tuition. You must be able to commit to the same days/times each week; office and/or retail skills are a plus. Please note, there are a limited number of Work Study positions available in each studio location.

 

The S Fund

In 2005, Sheila Kelley and longtime instructor Sara Goodman created The S Fund, a scholarship program supported by staff donations. Today, thanks to continued support from staff, as well as private donations from passionate S students, the S Fund is able to provide tuition relief for a limited number of students in each studio location. S Fund recipients are granted $110 or $220 ($120/$240 in New York) toward the cost of their Original Series session.
