Multi-Class Discounts
Dancers taking multiple classes are eligible for a monthly discount. Classes do not include the Aftercare program.
Registration Fee
A one-time registration fee of $25 for one student or $40 for 2+ students is due with first month's tuition.
Costume Fees
Costume fees are set at $70 per class, conveniently divided into equal installments over the first seven months of the session. If your dancer decides not to take the stage in May, a $70 credit per class will be applied to your account in March 2027.
We are introducing this change to allow for a more seamless ordering and exchange process, ensuring everyone is recital-ready well in advance!
Examples:
A dancer who takes 1 dance class would add a costume fee amount of $10 per month for 7 months. The total recital costume fee paid is $70.
A dancer who takes 4 dance classes would add a costume fee amount of $40 per month for 7 months. The total recital costume fee paid is $280.
