Attendance & Time Commitment
Being in a dance class at Wish Dance Academy is being part of a team. Just as sports
teams require players to attend practices, we require dancers to be present in class.
Absences will not only affect the individual dancer, but the partner and spacial
awareness of other dancers in class. If your dancer is going to miss class, please
contact Wish Dance Academy to let the staff know.Punctuality is just as important as attendance, please be on time and prepared for class.We believe that being a member of Wish Dance Academy is a privilege. Commitment and accountability are essential for a successful season full of inspiration and growth.
Dress Code
All Wish Dance Academy students must wear appropriate dance wear to every
class. We ask that dancers come to class ready to dance in clean dance attire and
with their hair secured so that it is off of their face. Dance shoes should never be
worn outdoors. Wish Dance Academy does not allow street shoes in the dance
room. At Wish Dance Academy we believe in modest and age-appropriate dance wear.
Just as we would never put dancers on stage in inappropriate or revealing
costumes, we require the same for class. Dancewear that exposes mid-drifts is not
allowed.
