Tuition & policies

---

Our dance curriculum is based on a school year season. Classes begin in September and continue through May, ending with our annual spring recital.  Dancers will concentrate on skills and proper technique throughout the year. In November we will begin choreography for our winter showcase to be held in January; In February teachers will announce song titles and begin choreography for spring recitals. 

Tuition is calculated by the year and divided into 9 equal payments.  September tuition is due at time of registration. There is an annual registration fee of $25 per student, also due at time of registration. Monthly tuition is then charged at the beginning of each month October-May.

PERFORMANCE FEES

Dance is a performance art, and we provide two opportunities for students to showcase their talents throughout the season!

Spring Recitals:  Our annual spring recital is a professional production with full costumes.  Dancers perform all styles of dance included in their class.  Ballet, Tap & Jazz combo classes perform all styles with three routines and two costumes.  Costume fees will be charged on December 1st.  There is a performance fee of $50 per dancer for spring recitals, which includes a t-shirt and professional performance videos.  The spring fee will be charged February 15th.
