I. TUITION FEES
Monthly tuition fees are due on the 1st of each month. Tuition is per month not per class. After a 5-day grace period, any payment not received is subject to a $10.00 late fee. If there is not payment by the 7th of the month, your card will be charged that months full balance inclusive of the $10 late fee and following for each consecutive week payment is late. The tuition fees are the same every month, including the months shortened by holidays. Tuition remains the same regardless of absences and whether it is a long (5-weeks) month or a short (3-weeks) month. Tuition is based off a 10-month annual year, beginning in August and ending in June. Please read the following payment options below and circle your preferred payment option. Please sign and provide a copy of your credit/debit, driver’s license/ID for our records.

You’ll handed back
administrative costs of ordering, production charges, theater rental, special equipment rental, props, sets, lighting, sound, additional recital administrative costs, programs and printing costs. The fee is $120.00 per student, per class and is considered due at time of registration. The deadline is November 1st. After that date there is a late costume fee of $40 (if we are able to accomplish this with the costume company). Any costume not picked up by June 1st will become studio property. Costume exchanges must be within the first week of issuance. All fees must be paid by May 1st to be eligible to perform. No refunds will be issued for any reason.
G. TICKETS
Tickets are sold separately, on-line, and are $25-$45 each. Ticket prices vary depending upon the recital venue.
H. RECITALS
Recital and recital rehearsals are tentatively scheduled for June. Please be open and available between 10 am – 6 pm.
Each student who participates in the recital will be in at least one of these shows. We regret we are unable to accept any special requests for days or times. Please note you may be asked to provide specific color tights and/or dance shoes for the recital. We are instilling the value of a polished, professional performance which requires regular attendance, dedicated practice and full-dress rehearsal participation. Therefore, our dress rehearsals are mandatory and our dancers may not participate in dress rehearsal only, as this proves detrimental to the entire group and final presentation.
I. REFERRALS
You will receive a $50 credit to your account for referring a new student to the studio. Your credit will appear after they register and pay their first month’s tuition.
J. ABSENCES
There are no refunds or credits given if a student is absent from class. You can make-up classes within the same month (30 days) in another class of the same level. If your usual instructor is absent, another qualified member of our staff will be available to substitute the lesson. If a substitute cannot be provided, either the class will be rescheduled by the instructor or you will receive a per lesson credit towards your next month’s tuition based on the Owner’s discretion.

K. TARDINESS
Student must be on time for each scheduled class at the proper time of arrival. If the Student is 10 minutes past their scheduled class time, the Student may not be allowed in class based upon the Teacher’s discretion. If there are any questions or concerns and a Parent would like to meet with a Staff Member, the Parent must then email the Owner to make an appointment. Remember all Directors, Staff Members, and Guest Artists strictly enforce all policies.
L. CLASS ETIQUETTE
All students must present themselves always with dignity, pride, and respect not only for others, but also for themselves in and out of the classroom setting. Each Student must arrive on time to their appropriate class with all hair out of their face, no chewing gum, no talking in class unless spoken to by the Instructor, Director, or Choreographer. Always remember that first and foremost dance is a discipline that should be taken seriously, always.
Your discipline, hard work, and dedication will determine your skill level. The goals set forth by you will determine how you will improve in the way desired. Teachers can only do so much then it’s up to the students and parents to be of assistance in this matter.
M. TERMINATION OF LESSONS
Thirty (30) day notice is required to discontinue any lessons. Withdrawal must be in written form and must be provided in person. Withdrawal will not be accepted over the phone or via electronic communication. You will be considered a student and billed accordingly unless a withdrawal form is completed.

Please give your child the space and freedom to explore dance on his/her own. If your child has problems separating from you, that is usually a good sign that your child should most likely wait 6 months to a year before they enroll in dance lessons.
Proper hygiene is essential in all aspects of life. It is very hard to approach a child or parent about a lack of cleanliness or a foul body odor. However, in a dance studio where activities induce sweat and children are moving through the space, odors can become a terrible distraction and an embarrassment for the child, should a classmate be insensitive and say something out loud. To avoid these problems, please be sure all dancewear is laundered after each wearing; hair should be clean and pulled back properly, and deodorant should be a consideration for all students age 7 and up for dance class. Please, NO PERFUME prior to class as this will cause a terrible odor, as well as aggravate allergies of other students.
