How tuition works
Here is how tuition works, in plain words. The front desk goes through the figures with you before you sign up, and they are on our registration page.
Tuition depends on the classes a dancer takes and how long each one runs. A dancer in one weekly class pays differently from one who takes ballet, folklorico and the waltz class together. The figures are on our registration page, and the front desk will go through them before you pay anything.

Registration
Registering covers an account for your family, a signed waiver and an emergency contact. A parent or guardian does it once, on our registration page, before a dancer's first class.

Billing
Tuition is billed monthly through the studio's account, on the same day each month. Autopay is there if you want it, and a reminder arrives by text before each bill.

Siblings
Brothers and sisters can join the same classes or different ones. Ask the front desk when you register and we will set the family up together, so one account covers everyone.
Missed classes and make-ups
If a dancer misses a class, tell the front desk and we will look for a spot in another class of the same age. Makeups happen within the same session, and the front desk will tell you which classes have room.
Costumes, the recital and other extras
Beyond tuition, a few extras come up in the year: shoes and a leotard or skirt, a costume for the spring recital, and now and then an entry or a trip to a festival. Each one is named in writing, with what it is for, before you pay for it.

Withdrawing
Tell the front desk before the next billing day and the classes stop there. A month already started runs to its last class. A dancer who stops can come back in a later session if there is room.
