Welcome To Nye Dance Productions
Nye Dance Productions is a dance studio in Oregon, Ohio. The studio teaches various styles of dance both as recreation dance, performance dance and competitive dance for students ranging from toddler to adult. Teaching dance using safe techniques is essential to the growth and development, and overall well being of its dancers. Nye Dance Productions takes pride in providing an educational approach to its lessons requiring students to use correct terminology when mastering skills in the studio. Parents alike are given resources to help further educate themselves and their students on basic as well as intermediate to advanced fundamentals of dance.
Class Registration
If you register through your account for and take a space in a class, you are committed to, and agree to pay tuition for that class until either the end of the session or you drop the class by completing a Class Cancellation Form at the studio and paying the Class Cancellation Fee at the studio. Drop in classes may be available, if not full, without commitment for a fee. Please schedule in advance with the front desk. To enroll in Season 4 classes the registration fee and first month’s tuition must be paid in full. Account credits may be issued if scheduling needs to change before the Registration deadline.
Registration Fees
Each dancer will be charged a non-refundable annual registration fee payable upon registration. Individual dancers $15 and siblings $25. This is a requirement to have a spot in registered dance classes.
Tuition
Fees for class are paid by the month. Families will pay one set fee per month which is due on the 1st of the month. Payment is to be made no later than the 10th of the month. If payment is not in by the 10th of each month there will be a $15 late fee added to the total bill. Any returned checks will be assessed a $35 fee and must be paid no later than 5 days after you have been notified. If your dancer is participating in the recital, you are committing to attend classes and pay tuition September through June. Tuition may be paid in advance, however, there are no refunds on pre-paid amounts of any kind.
Payment to Nye Dance Productions is accepted through cash, check or card. All families must register and have a credit card on file in their Dance Studio Pro Accounts. A credit card reader will be available at the front desk starting Summer 2022.
**Nye Dance Productions will no longer be accepting Venmo payments started on Sunday June 5th.
Families with multiple dancers in the studio will receive a 10% monthly discount on tuition.
Nye Dance Productions reserves the right to have dancers sit out of classes, without make-up classes, if their account has any outstanding balances until the account is paid in full. Any balance that exceeds more than your monthly tuition is considered an outstanding balance.
All fees (tuition, registration fees, recital performance fees, costume fees, and tickets) are non-refundable. All outstanding balances must be paid in full before costumes are handed out and before any student can perform in a showcase or recital. All unpaid charges as of the 10th of each month are subject to late charge of $15. All accounts must be paid in full before registering for the next session. Accounts with a history of non-payment or non-compliance with studio policies may be barred from registration and may be asked to leave the studio or may be asked to prepay tuition.
Dance Studio Pro
All dancers at Nye Dance Productions are required to have a parent/guardian register for an account with the Dance Studio Pro system. Accounts give families access to input family/dancer information, view the studio schedule, enroll in classes, access documents, access music files and pay online. Families should become familiar with their account and check for class material and emails.
Class Cancellation
A written notice returned in person is required to cancel a class mid season (September - June). In order to stop further tuition obligations for the session (beginning with the month after this notice is received), this form must be completed and turned into Nye Dance Productions front desk before the 1st calendar day (not the first class meeting) of the month you want to withdraw. The Account Holder is responsible for tuition payments, account charges and late fees incurred through the last day of the month a dancer is registered in a class regardless of attendance. If a dancer is canceling class mid season (October - December) or (February - June) a $15 drop out fee will be assessed AND that month’s tuition. Dancers are given a month trial (September and January) to withdraw from class without a fee. If registered for recital, costumes must be picked up by the end of June or the costume becomes the property of Nye Dance Productions.
Dress Code
Nye Dance Productions enforces a strict dress code to promote safety, discipline and uniformity in its classes. Proper dress allows instructors to view proper body alignment and muscle use. Dancers who do not dress appropriately in class will be issued a dress code card. If more than three incidents occur, dancers will be invited to observe class. Parents may be called.
Pick up all your dress code needs at Dancer’s Pointe in Perrysburg, OH.
Parent Viewing
Parents, friends and younger siblings are NOT allowed in classrooms during class (with the exception of the Parent & Me Class), it helps students keep focused without distraction. Recording class is not permitted without the approval of Nye Dance Productions, please check with the front desk or instructor. The studio’s waiting area will accommodate families.
Nye Dance Productions is excited to announce that starting Season 4 we will have Spot T.V. available for viewing classes on a regular basis. *Information will be released at the start of the season.
Attendance
Any missed dance class should be reported to the front desk via call, text, message or email. It is important we are aware of our dancers if they are scheduled to be in class. Attendance is taken at the beginning of each class.
If your dancer has not attended the class for 3 consecutive weeks without a parent request and payment to maintain his or her space, your dancer may be dropped from a class to allow others to participate without a refund or credit for tuition paid or owed.
Make Up Classes
Any missed dance classes may be made up by attending an approved dance class by Nye Dance Productions, within the same calendar month. If the dancer misses classes in the last week of a calendar month, the dancer may make up the class in the following calendar month. No credits or refunds are given for missed classes. NDP is not responsible for tracking missed classes. To make up a class, get a slip from the front desk before class. Makeup classes are not guaranteed. If we have full classes or during recital season we are not always able to schedule a dancer a makeup class. Makeup classes cannot be done by siblings or friends.

Arrangements for Zoom need to be made within 24 hours of the scheduled dance class. We cannot make these accommodations on the day of class. Zoom is only for Covid-19 cases.

Injuries
Injured dancers are expected to be present and be put on a studio injury plan with Nye Dance Productions. A meeting will be scheduled with the director, parent and dancer. A copy of a doctor’s note must be given to the front desk or logged in your Dance Studio Pro Account.

If your child has an injury or illness that a physician has suggested he or she be limited from physical activity, you must provide a doctor’s note to hold a space in class without billing AND your dancer must be cleared by the same physician in writing to return to dance. If your dancer has a cast, crutches, braces, etc. your dancer will not be allowed to participate in dance without written clearance from a physician.
