Our Class Policies

OUR CLASS POLICIES 

Holidays and Bad Weather:

• Our studio will not necessarily close for inclement weather. Please check your emails and social media frequently for information on closures for holidays and weather. 
• Monthly tuition will remain the same regardless of holidays and weather closures.
• Make up classes may be available depending on the class availability.

Class Attire:

• Students must wear a leotard in their assigned color to class each time they attend. They will be allowed to wear black leggings or black dance shorts/skirts over their leotard if preferred. Boys should wear black pants/shorts and a black t-shirt. No baggy t-shirts, baggy shorts, blue jeans, excessive jewelry, or other inappropriate attire will be allowed.
• Hair should always be pulled back away from the face.

Our Studio Rules

• Students who arrive to dance class early should be seated on the benches in the studio or on the benches outside with a parent/guardian unless enrolled in the class that is taking place.
• Dance bags and street shoes should be placed in the bag cubbies at all times unless instructed otherwise (for example - using tennis shoes for a hip hop routine)
• No food or drinks are allowed in the studio dance space. Any drinks should be kept in the cubby with their dance bag. Students will be given break time during class to stay hydrated during dance. 
• Parents should not leave young students unattended in the outdoor waiting area before or after class.
• Chewing gum is never allowed in the dance studio.  
• Always be respectful towards your teachers and other classmates.

Communication

• Our main form of communication will be through email or social media.
• We will post class updates, closure notices, and all other important class information on social media as well as sending this information through email.
• Please keep us informed if your email changes or if you are not receiving the email information.

Performances and Class Observations

• We will be having a Spring Recital in June. Dates and venue information will be sent out via email closer to the end of the dance year.
• All audience members will require a ticket. Ticket prices will be posted when the event gets closer.
• We do have an open door policy, but ask that parents do not consistently sit in on classes as it tends to be a distraction to the children, and they often get less out of class when they are being observed by their parents.
