How Much Does MasterClass Cost?
With this Father’s Day deal, the platform starts at $60 per year (which works out to $5 per month for a single subscription). The subscription gives you unlimited access to all classes, including new courses launched monthly.
The Premium Plan costs $120 per year (which works out to $10 per month with the Father’s Day deal) but you can share this plan with six users in total. While the site sometimes offers promotions, this is the best MasterClass deal we’re seeing online right now.
Your membership unlocks access to the streamer’s mobile and TV apps, high-definition videos, and class workouts that you can download and watch on a smartphone, computer and other devices, such as Apple TV, Fire TV, and Roku. MasterClass also provides Audio Mode for certain courses, so that members can download classes and watch them offline from the plane and other modes of transportation.
From beginners to novices, MasterClass courses are designed to suit all skill levels. Every class includes around 20 videos that are approximately ten minutes in running time each, and a detailed workbook. The course instructor will walk students through the curriculum, which comes with step-by-step instructions, but encourages students to explore their own creativity by going “beyond the session content.”
