Studio Policies
​
*No food or drinks besides water is permitted in the dance rooms. Water is allowed and encouraged, but we ask that a closed container or spill proof water bottle is used. Water is provided however we do not provide cups in an effort to reduce waste.
*We ask that all students show respect and kindness to each other and the teachers, in and out of the dance room. If there is an issue with class disruption or behavior, we will contact the parent or guardian.
*Class times include a 2 minute grace period for dancers to change shoes, get water and use the facilities in between classes.
*Please drop-off or pick-up your child within a 10 minute window of their scheduled class time.
​
*Please check the lost and found each month for any items you may have left. We donate all remaining items in lost and found to Goodwill every few months.
*All children must be attended by a parent while in the studio if they are not participating in classes. Children must also be attended in the outdoor area surrounding the studio.

Class Changes
If a dancer wishes to drop a class or make changes to their schedule, it must be done officially either online through their parent portal or by submitting an email to the studio. Tuition will still be charged for dancers who do not officially withdrawl from the class as that spot is reserved and cannot be filled by dancers who may be on a wailist.
​​
Annual Performances
Dancers have 2 main annual performances each year they are encouraged to take part in. We have a Christmas Show that takes place in December, as well as our Spring Recital that takes place in May. Both are opportunities for dancers to take the stage and showcase what they have been working on in classes. We also regularly have the opportunity to perform for community events and nursing homes throughout the year. Please refer to the important dates for information on main show dates. We will add community performance opportunities to the calendar as they arise. Times and details will be given closer to each performance.
​
Attendance
We ask that families try their best to be at each class on time. Consistency is essential to development and allows the class to progress at the same time. Attendance is also especially important when preparing for upcoming shows. We appreciate parents letting us know when students will be absent as well. If a student falls behind because of absences we will notify the parent and will ask to schedule a meeting.
​
Dress Code
Students not in FULL dress code will be given one warning. After the first warning, students may be asked to watch the class.
We generally have a selection of tap shoes, ballet shoes, leotards and tights in stock. We also have a large bin of used shoes available to purchase. (If ordering on your own through Discount Dance Supply, PLEASE use our TEACHER CODE: TP# 33926. The studio receives perks and allows us to keep our prices down when we make orders from them!)
Combo Classes: Any style/ color fitted dance attire, optional tights, pink ballet shoes (black for boys), and tap shoes. Hair should be secured and out of the face.
Ballet: Black leotard, pink tights & pink ballet shoes - hair in a secure bun.
