Recreational Costume Rental Fees are nonrefundable and will be charged in April.

Competition Fees are non-refundable for any reason.

Parent Observation

Classes will be conducted with the doors closed to protect the privacy of the students in the class. We understand the excitement you have. All you want to do is watch your child progress and snap those adorable photos of them. There are a ton of reasons why we close our class doors to parents, and here are the top reasons. 
It makes most other students uncomfortable. While your child might be okay with you peeking through the window, other children may react in a different way. We are dealing with all types of personalities in one room, and making sure all of the students feel comfortable enough to express themselves is one of our top priorities. In the mindset of kids, they even sometimes feel as though they are being judged by other parents on their dancing. This is sad but very true. 
They learn independence in a safe environment. This is especially true and beneficial for the pre-level classes. It is important to teach kids that "parents will drop you off for class and be back in a few minutes" (that parents always come back), and this is a safe thing to do. This starts the process of them not being too needy and venturing to explore what it is like to be on their own but obviously still safe with a teacher and surrounding staff. They can make decisions on their own in class without looking over their shoulder for approval. 
You lose the element of surprise.
If you are constantly watching the classes every time your child is training, you lose the great element of surprise. Nothing is more thrilling than coming in for parent's week or recital and seeing your child complete all these amazing steps and tricks. If you are always watching classes, the parent might feel as though their child isn't really getting there or disagree with the teaching methods and want to insert their opinions. I am telling you from firsthand experience, hold off on the peaking in class and wait to be surprised at the next viewing event! You will be so much more proud and impressed with your child. 
At various times throughout the year, parents are invited into the class to serve as a practice audience for the dancers (parent viewing).

Dress Code Policy

Hair must be pulled back and secured for ALL classes.

Proper attire, including tights and shoes, must be worn for each class as outlined in the studio dress code.

Attendance

All absences are to be reported to the studio prior to the student missing via email. Attendance is taken at the beginning of each class and kept track of throughout the year. It is important that your child attends dance class every week. Good attendance is imperative to the success of your dancer.

Absences and tardiness can hold back an entire class, and the studio cannot jeopardize its responsibilities to the rest of the class for one student. If a student misses too many lessons, they may fall behind the rest of the class and may be asked not to perform the recital or competitions. If attendance becomes a problem you will be contacted by the studio via email.

Recital and Recital Ticket Policy

All studio fees must be paid in full, or your child will not be permitted to participate in the recital. Tickets will go on sale at a predetermined date prior to the recital and will be rush seating. Tickets are only available at the studio office prior to the show.
