How do we register?
There are three easy ways to register!

Before your child can participate in class, you must sign your waiver. Forms are available on the website (print one out and bring it in) or at the front desk. NO EXCEPTIONS!

Can I get a refund if my child doesn’t like it?
Sure, and if it is your child’s first class, we will refund all your money. After the first class, we issue refunds, provided that you have given us a withdrawal form and two weeks notice. Tuition will continue to be charged to your account until two weeks after a withdrawal form is received! (Withdrawal slips may be obtained from the front desk.)
No refunds for missed classes.
We automatically assume that you will continue taking classes from late August all the way to June. Tuition will continue to be charged to you unless a withdrawal notice is given to the front desk.
How much is tuition?
The discounted tuition schedule is based on the number of class minutes your family takes (includes all members within the immediate family). The more classes you take, the less your hourly rate becomes!

When and how do I pay?
The easiest way is to sign up for our free service—automatic credit card billing! We can charge your tuition on a Visa, Mastercard,
or Discover. It’s safe, convenient and saves you time. Otherwise, you’ll have to stop in with a credit card or check.
Due dates will be posted in the studio. WE DO NOT SEND paper statements. However, we can send you e-mail reminders if you give us your e-mail address. LATE FEES ARE $10.00. RETURNED CHECK FEES ARE $25.00.
Can my child make up a class that he/she missed?
Sure!! Just let us know ahead of time so we can make sure there is space available.
Is there a recital at the end of the year?
Yes... But we don’t call it “recital.” It’s our Spring Showcases! Our goal is to provide a fun production that will entertain everyone! There are four different shows, all on the same day, held in June.
Of course, participation is optional. Those who participate will need a costume—those are $75.00 each. Your costume fee includes a $10.00 showcase participation fee
and a $10.00 administrative fee. Tickets are extra.
As an alternative to the Spring Showcases, we're also offering a NEW event—"Tumbling Awards Day" which is held in May every year. Your instructor will give you information about this fun, exciting event!
Where should I buy the dancewear I need?
