Help Clutch Problems

I went out to take the car to the store. I drove it three days ago and it was fine. My wife drives it daily. When I take off I find the cluth slipping badly. Is it normal for it to change that suddenly? The car has 10,000 miles at 13 months. I read it is not covered under warranty. What does it cost to replace with a stock clutch. I once put
a kevlar clutch in a car that lasted forever. Is one available for this car.

maybe clutching technique is wrong... have to do fast clutch work on the upshifts instead of easing it in slowly...

or if you launch too hard.. one of the springs in teh clutch might have popped out or broken and screwed up the clutch surface... should get it checked soon
