Policies and Procedures

Dance Families,

Please review our studio policies and procedures listed below. We would like to work with you in order to provide your dancer with the very best dance instruction.

DRESS

Dancers need to arrive to class dressed properly – hair tied back, shoes, leotard etc. No baggy clothes that will prevent the instructor from seeing the body alignment – exceptions for hip hop. It is also important mentally for the dancers to be dressed properly for dance. Just as you would not arrive to swimming class in school clothes, you should not arrive to dance in play clothes. Make sure you bring the proper shoes. Dancer arriving to class in inappropriate or revealing clothing will not be permitted to dance that day.

FOOD

Please, no food, drinks or gum are allowed in the dance rooms.  Water is always allowed. Every dancer should have a water bottle with them at all times.

ARRIVAL TIME

All classes begin exactly on time. Please plan to arrive to class early with a few minutes to spare. Any student arriving later than 15 minutes from the beginning of class time will not be permitted to dance. This is strictly a safety issue as a student could suffer serious injury if they have not properly stretched.  It is also disruptive to the instructor and other students to have class interrupted to accommodate a late student.

OBSERVATION OF CLASSES

In order to provide your children with the highest quality of instruction, we need parents to work with us when observing your child's class.  

Every room at the North studio has a window and seating area where parents may conveniently view the dance class and the instruction of their dancer. Parents also have the luxury of viewing classes held in room one on a monitor located in the front lobby.  

At the South studio, parents may view dance classes and instruction from the upstairs lobby areas. Viewing for rooms 2, 3, and 5 is available by monitors also located in the upstairs lobby. 

If you would like to visit with each other, please take advantage of the studio lobby areas. Older siblings may wait in the lobby; younger siblings, too, as long as they are well supervised. 

For safety reasons, children are not permitted in the dance rooms or stairways at any time. 

CHILD CARE

Limited Childcare services are available. The parent or guardian must remain on the premises while children are in childcare. The cost is $2 per visit.  Please contact the studio for availability.

MISSED CLASSES

TDC offers make-ups for missed classes. All make-ups must be scheduled in advance, within 30 days of the absence. TDC reserves the right to turn away unscheduled make-ups. Credits or refunds will not be given for classes not made up.

RECITAL SHOWS

Every dance season, we have 14 fabulous recital shows the last few weeks of July. Every dance class for dancer's ages 3 to adult will participate in one recital show. Recital is optional; however 99% of our dancers do participate. This is a wonderful opportunity for dancers to showcase to both family and friends what they have learned throughout their experience in our program. Parents will receive more information regarding show dates and costumes during the first week of February. Costumes are ordered in March, and all classes are closed during the first week of April in order for students to dedicate a portion of their class to rehearsing the routine that they will be performing in one of the recital shows. 

CLASS CANCELLATIONS

All cancellations must be in writing by the 25th of the month.

Please Note: If written notice is not received by the 25th of the month, you will be billed and responsible for following month's non-refundable tuition on the 1st.
