How tuition works

What sets tuition

Tuition depends on the level and on how many classes a week a dancer takes. Age, class length and the kind of dance all play a part. The figures are on our registration page, and we are glad to talk them through by phone or on WhatsApp.

Registration

A yearly registration covers the academy's file for your dancer and the studio's insurance. It is due when you register for your first session.

Holding a place

A place is held when you register. When a group is full we keep a waitlist and call in the order families joined, and a spot that opens goes to the next family within a day.

Billing

Tuition is billed monthly by autopay, or once for the session if you would rather pay it that way. Either way, you see the schedule of payments when you register.

Siblings

A second dancer in the family is handled differently from the first. Ask us when you register and we will explain how.

Missed classes and make-ups

A missed class can be made up in another group of the same age within the same session. Book it at the door or on WhatsApp.

Uniforms, costumes and other costs

Costumes are ordered in the winter and billed before the May recital, one for each dance the group performs. The recital has a production charge for each dancer, and guests need tickets. Footwork shoes, ribbons and accessories are bought by the family. We don't compete, so there are no entries or travel. Adapted costumes are chosen with each dancer.

Help with tuition

The academy has partial scholarships and a work exchange with families. Talk with Enriqueta, in person or on WhatsApp, and she will explain how they work.
