~ Proper dance attire must be worn to dance class. Leotard w/tights are the best, spandex/spanks/biker shorts, leggings, yoga pants or athletic pants and tank tops are fine. No sweatshirts or sweatpants. No jeans or jeggings. Your child will sit to watch their class if not in proper attire.
~ Proper shoes must be worn. Tan Tap for girls, Black Tap for boys, Black Jazz for all, White Ballet for girls (JRH/HS do not need these) & Black Ballet for boys. This includes Line Dancing, Couples, Hula Hooping & Drumming classes. No black rubber soles. Socks are fine for the latter. Please bring a different pair to change into from the ones you arrive in.
~ Please have your child in their shoes before the class starts. It will be greatly appreciated.
~ Please have all or half hair tied up so it's not in their face & distracting them.
~ When in class please leave things in waiting area. Not in a chair please so others can sit.
~ No students will be allowed in the studio until I am (only HS). Please keep studio door closed.
~ No gum chewing or hard candy. No water in studio for kids under 12.
~ Please keep jewelry to a minimum or none at all. They will be taken away then given back after class if your child is playing with them-this includes if they are playing with their skirt.
~ Do not send your child into the classroom crying. If they are crying uncontrollably, they will be sent out of the room.
~ If you or your child will not be attending class please call, e-mail, text or FB to let me know. I will not have class if only 1-3 students show up.
~ If you or your child misses a class you will still be charged for that class unless I cancel it or unless it is a holiday/school vacation. Some holidays/vacation days will be used for makeup classes.
~ If your child/children are not in the class that I am teaching, please do not leave them outside or in the waiting room unattended.
~ Please do not play on the swing set, trampoline or pool area out back (for insurance reasons).
~ Please keep the method of paying either weekly or monthly (meaning first or second week of the month). A $5 bi-weekly late fee will be applied on the 30th of the month then again biweekly until payment is caught up.
~ Students with an account that is more than 2 months behind will not be permitted to attend class until account is brought current.
~ Any bounced checks are charged a $20 fee.
~ There is a non-refundable $25 registration fee for new students only that needs to be paid in full at the time of registration to secure their spot.
~ A non-refundable costume payment of $25 PER costume must be made by November 1st. This will help customers budget for when the balance is due in January.
~ Once costume deposits are made, I expect each student is committed to their class & classmates. We all work hard together so it's important we are all committed.
~ Please do not throw cigarette butts outside on the ground.
~ Please utilize the driveway. Most likely everyone in the same class are leaving at the same time. NEW for 2023, 2nd paved driveway for turnaround, if needed. Do not block.
