Who teaches candles in New York, and when
The 14 studios behind the cards above, with the shape of a session and when each one runs, read off their own pages in September 2026. A studio with no card today is one whose next date sits behind a booking system; its row says so.

How this page is put together
Every listing here was read off the studio's own page by a person: the date, the price as printed, and whether a session is a one-off, a term or something you book for any day. Where a studio keeps its dates behind a booking system we say so on the card rather than inventing one, and where it publishes no price we say that too. Nothing on this page came from an aggregator.
Recurring courses show their next real occurrence rather than the date they were first entered, worked out in New York time so a 6:30pm class stays 6:30pm across the clock changes.
