STUDIO POLICIES

TUITION AGREEMENT

Our program is a full academic year program. We offer a full refund (less the $55.00 annual registration fee), up to 2 weeks into the year, if you or your dancer decides our program is not for you!

By registering your dancer for the 2025/26 season, you agree to the payment of a non-refundable  $55.00 per student. You also understand that full tuition is due at the time of registration.

We offer both sibling and multiple-class discounts.

By registering, one also understands that The Dance Pointe is unable to furnish refunds/credits in the event we need to return to distance learning. The Dance Pointe will provide full instruction via Zoom if necessary.

No refunds will be given if distance learning becomes a necessity.

WEATHER CANCELLATIONS

We do NOT necessarily follow district cancellations and weather-related decisions. A minimum of 1 snow/weather event day has been built into each day of the week, so no make-up classes due to weather cancellations are offered.

We will communicate any weather-related cancellations with you in a timely fashion via the following methods:

  1. Studio-wide email

  2. Studio-wide text message

ABSCENCES

Dance is an athletic art where presence is necessary. Work done in class can rarely be "made up" so we need all dancers to attend their classes every week.

Multiple unexcused absences may result in the inability of a dancer to perform. We appreciate your dedication to our craft.

"DANCER ONLY ZONE"

Sometimes, the first week or two of an activity, especially if it is new, can be daunting and confusing for young children. Our staff is well aware of this and go out of their way to comfort any dancer who needs an extra few minutes to acclimate. Our studios are “dancer-only zones” in order to create a healthy and trusting bond between dancer and instructor.

If a dancer clearly needs to be soothed by a parent, we ask that we do this in the hallway outside of the dance studio. This ensures that the other dancers in the studio can continue to focus on their class as well as the teacher.

If you have any concerns or questions, please come to the office or speak with an instructor come the end of class.

We greatly appreciate your understanding and support as we look forward to a wonderful dance season.

SPRING PERFORMANCE 

Our annual Spring Performance is held in May. A costume fee of $TBD is required to participate. Tickets for the performance are at the cost of participating families and are sold through the theatre venue.

All dancers are also expected to attend dress rehearsals and are to be picked up AFTER the final curtain call of the show, NOT during. This is to ensure the safety of all involved.
