REGISTRATION: Students may register for classes as space permits. New students are accepted until February 1st.

STUDENT PLACEMENT: Students age 2.5 through 4th Grade are placed first by age. This allows us to present lessons that are developmentally appropriate. Dancers ages 10 and older are evaluated and placed into technique classes based on their skill level. Progression to a higher level is based on technical ability, skill mastery, attendance and maturity. Some classes will contain a mix of ages. Students are progressed to the next level with teacher recommendation.

STUDENT PROGRESS: Regular attendance and at-home practice greatly affect the rate at which your child will learn and improve. Your childs teachers and the director are happy to discuss their progress and answer your questions. Please be respectful of other student's time and do not interrupt or delay a class that is in session. Send an email to set up a time to talk.

ATTENDANCE: Attendance is taken at every class. Good attendance is crucial to the progress of the entire class. Make-up lessons are offered, check with the front desk to find a suitable make-up class.

PRIVATE LESSONS: Private lessons are available to any student (grade 5 and older) who would like more challenging work or the opportunity to refine technique in a particular discipline. Private lessons also provide reinforcement of class material for any student who would like extra help. Please check with the office to request more information.
