Instructors will start working with dancers on their extra dances in August. Fees for solo/duet dances will follow the same format was last year - (1) $35.00 fee - covers the cost of cutting music, studio fees and administrative fees – this fee will be posted to your dance account and paid to ASOD. (2) $30/hr fee for each 1 hr long private lesson - paid directly to your dance instructor at the end of each lesson. (3)costume fee – TBD.
If you have any questions please be sure to email Stacey (asod@centurytel.net).
