We do not charge a registration fee for classes!
Evaluations, Celebrations, Performance Opportunities
Students are evaluated and celebrated continuously throughout the year. Our Winterfest Performances (all students), Snowflake Soiree Dance Performance, Mountain Moose Moose, Ninja Missions, Ninja Games and our Spring Dance Concert offer unique opportunities for students to perform for friends and family. Progress will be communicated to parents via email consistently as students make progress and attain new skills.
Performance Opportunities
Dancers have the opportunity to perform during our Winter Showcase (Level 1 and up) and our Spring Performance (includes all dancers). To put on a quality show (theater rental, production and lighting staff along with beautiful costumes) a recital fee is charged for each show:
- Winter Showcase Concert Fee due October 16th with Nov. tuition,
- Spring Benefit Concert Fee due February 16th with March tuition.
We truly believe performing is an integral part of your student’s dance education and strongly encourage all dancers to participate in these positive performance opportunities.
Waitlist Procedures
Waitlist
We will notify you via text that a space has become available. We ask that you respond to the text within 24hrs accepting or declining the space. If after 24hrs we have not heard from you we will remove your student from the waitlist and offer the space to the next student on the list. Tuition will be prorated based on your start date.
Make-up Policy
Keeping our students and staff healthy and safe is our number one priority which is why we will continue to adhere to our 100% wellness policy.
We are happy to offer a make-up class for your students if they miss due to an illness within 30 days of the missed class. However, we are only able to add a make-up student to a class with space available. When classes are full, make-up availability may be unavailable. Missed classes are not eligible for a tuition credit or refund.
We do ask that you make every effort to attend class unless your student is ill. For families who are unable to attend a make-up class in-person we encourage you to take advantage of our On-Demand Classes.
