RA, I can recommend KlezKamp wholeheartedly. I do agree with Steve, it is pricey, but the experience is invaluable.
Andy Statman will give lessons, but don't make the same mistake I did! I talked to Andy either over the phone or via mail (can't remember which) and told him that I was coming down to New York and that I'd like to take some lessons. He told me to contact him when I came in. When I got to New York that weekend, I tried phoning him and phoning him, with no answer and no callback at my hotel. I was upset about it, until I found out a key piece of information.
You see, the only knowledge I had of Andy Statman was from his first couple of records, and from a live broadcast in which he talked about drinking Budweiser and partying, etc; I had no idea that he had become religious, and that he had become a Hassid! So.....I was calling on a Saturday....he wasn't answering the phone because it was Shabbas!
