Tuition

Payment Policy (effective August 1, 2022)

$45 per student or $50 per family

Tuition Payments Per Student
Tuition is charged monthly and is based on an 11-month calendar from August 11th, 2022, through June 24th, 2023. Tuition rates remain the same whether a given month of classes is long or short with one exception: August tuition will each be prorated for 3 weeks of classes.

Classes at the Dance Academy continue after our performances for the months of  December & June.  Payment for these months still need to be paid, even if  your student will not be participating in class. If you know that they will not be attending during that particular month, they can take make-up classes at any time during the school year. 

PLEASE NOTE: If you decide to withdraw your student from the Dance Academy after the performance and then decide to rejoin in January, you will be required to pay a $45.00 Registration Fee, and your child will not be able to take make-up classes. We register several new students in December & January so you may be put on a waiting list for your desired classes.  Once you withdraw from a class, there is no guarantee that your child's place in that class will be held.

PLEASE NOTE: To participate in our November or June shows, monthly  tuition for those months is due prior to the shows. Please speak to our front desk if you need to make any special arrangements with these tuition payments.

Withdrawing a student from a class must be done in person and recorded in writing at the front desk. Telling a teacher will not be accepted as withdrawal. If a student has not withdrawn from a class by the end of the month, they will be considered enrolled for the next month and will be charged automatically. In case of failure to withdraw before the 1st of the next month, auto charged tuition will NOT be refunded.

Attendance & Make-up Classes
Tuition is not pro-rated or refunded due to absences or unexpected closures (ie. hurricanes). However, dancers are strongly encouraged to make up any missed classes within two months of their absence. Make-up classes must be taken at the same technique level or lower. Please coordinate with the front desk to schedule a make-up class.
