FAQs

Once inside the classroom, quiet is expected of all students. Students should go to the restroom before class starts, and bring everything they need with them into the studio so as to not disrupt the class by walking in and out during class. Students must remain standing the entire class. Sitting /laying on the floor and hanging on the barres is not allowed. Disruptive and uncooperative behavior will not be tolerated and students misbehaving will be asked to sit out of class or leave the studio. If you are going to be late or miss class, you must call your instructor. Most importantly, students must respect their instructors, their classmates and the studio; i.e. raising hands for a question, not disrupting other classes when in the halls, and cleaning up after themselves.  

We will have a special day for parents to observe class. Usually at the end of the semester. Parents will be notified ahead of time. Observation day is TBD. 

Yes. Every child gets the chance to perform with their level at our annual spring concert, usually one show in late spring. Intermediate and advanced students can be selected for Workshops, a chance to perform different styles in the Spring Concert.

The dress code is MANDATORY, it is to encourage unity and is part of the discipline of dance. Hoodies, sweats, t-shirts, etc. do not allow the teacher to see and correct the body placement of the student, which is critical in the training of young dancers. We do not sell the uniforms.
