Payment is due by the
FIRST of each month, as circled on the studio calendars. Payment is due regardless of attendance.
For summer session, payments are due the first day of the session. The cost of dance lessons is a semester fee, and the monthly payments are for convenience. The return check fee is $25. Balances on returned checks are due in cash. Accounts will be "cash only" after the 2nd bounced check. The studio accepts cash, checks, Visa, MasterCard, and Discover cards, and all non-pin associated debit cards. All checks must include either the Drivers License Number or the Social Security Number of the check writer to be accepted.
Late fees are charged weekly
as follows: Tuition due on the 1st of each month, regardless of
attendance or schedule. A $10 late fee will be applied to any account with a
balance on the 5th, 10th, 15th, 20th, and 25th of each month.
Everyone on the roster must pay a registration fee EACH semester/term.
Everyone is charged $20 fall registration fee that covers Sept-May.
There is no registration fee for summer sessions.
All dancers and cheerleaders must wear appropriate shoes. Tap, jazz, or ballet shoes are a must... depending on the class. Preschool dancers may continue class in socks or barefeet after the tap session. Gymnastics may be done in socks, please
no shoes on the cheer carpet. Dancers and cheerleaders will not be permitted to participate without proper foot attire.
Participants are asked to dress in casual, comfortable clothing. Leotards and dancewear are a great choice, however there is no specific dress code. Please no jeans...it inhibits movement.
All participants are asked to wait for their rides INSIDE the studio. We kindly ask that dancers and cheerleaders turn ringers off on their cell phones during class time.
Food, drinks, gum, and candy are NOT permitted in the dance rooms. All
drinks must be kept either in the waiting room, with a parent, OR in the
specific assigned spot outside of the classroom.
Parents, family, and friends are asked to remain in the waiting areas.
Observers can disrupt the dynamic of the class. Instead, our two classrooms
in the middle section will have viewing windows for your observation. The
cheer gym and all star rooms will not have viewing windows, however classes
may provide a show of skills/routine from time to time.
The Spring Recital will be held in late May/early June. Participants must have the appropriate costume and shoes to participate. Costumes are chosen by Kristi only, no parent input.
Costume payments are due November 1st. Average costume cost is $45. A $20 per participant Recital Fee is due
November 1st and will cover the rental of the auditorium and recital supplies. Our Spring Recital is a free show... No tickets to buy, no admission for family and friends!
The studio bad-weather policy follows MCCSC. If there is no school due to inclimate weather, then our classes will be canceled. If school is dismissed early due to weather, then our classes will be canceled. If there is a delay, then the studio classes will be in session. Of course, attending is at your discretion, however attendance will not affect your monthly bill. Make up classes will not be scheduled.
Dancers and cheerleaders are taught with positive and supportive
teaching/coaching. Practicing at home is encouraged. Students are
welcome to bring in blank CDs for copies of their class music.
Thank you for your cooperation to help our studio run smoothly and effectively! :)
Sincerely,
Kicks Unlimited Staff |
