TUITION & POLICIES

💳 Tuition & Payments

Tuition is billed on a monthly basis. Monthly tuition is determined from an average of entire classes from September - May. Tuition is automatically deducted from your account the 1st of each month. A $25 late fee is applied to any account not paid by the 10th. We offer:

• 20% sibling discount

• 15% multi-class discount

• Monthly tuition cap of $250 per dancer

Tuition is non-refundable for partial months, missed classes, or  withdrawal after the first of the month.

Merchandise is non-refundable.  

📅 Attendance & Make-Up Classes

If a dancer misses class, they may attend another class in the same age group for a make-up session. We do not offer make-up days for weather-related closures. Monday classes canceled due to holidays will be made up.

To report an absence, please email us at least 1 hour before class begins.

🔁 Withdrawals & Refunds

To withdraw from classes, families must submit a written email or letter. Withdrawals cannot occur after April 1st. Any tuition for a month after it has started will still be charged regardless of when the notice is given.

Registration, costume, and recital fees are non-refundable.
