Studio Policies and Procedures
New Tuition Policy
Tuition is based on a full dance year, September-May.
Our tuition policy is based on a MONTHLY payment system. You must sign up for Autopay at registration and have a credit card or checking account on file. Payments will be debited from your credit card or checking account at NO ADDITIONAL FEE on the fifteenth of the month starting September 15th until April 15th. Students with outstanding accounts will not be admitted to class. We accept Visa and Mastercard.
If you chose to make a full payment or two payments, please make arrangements with the studio upon registration.
There will be a $20.00 return check fee payment and a $20.00 late payment fee per month for outstanding tuitions.
Competition entrance fees are separate from regular tuition. Please contact the studio for any further questions regarding team competition rates and fees.
Costume Deposit
A costume deposit of $50.00 per costume, per dancer is required with your first tuition payment. Final costume payments must be made in December. All costumes are ordered over Holiday Break. If costume balances are not paid in full before holiday break, your child's costume will not be ordered.
Dance Recital
In May we will be having our annual dance recital. This is a very exciting time for the girls to showcase everything that they have learned through out the year. If your child is going to participate in our recital you are required to purchase a costume. Tickets must also be purchased for the recital. Children under the age of 3 are free, however they must sit on a parents lap. If you require a seat for that child, a ticket is needed. No strollers are allowed in the auditorium. All outstanding balances must be paid in full before purchasing tickets.
