Tuition statements will be emailed to our patrons' current email on file. Statements will arrive by the 25th of the previous month.

Registration fees, tuition, dance wear orders, recital and costumes fees are non-returnable or transferable.

Tuition is based on a 9.5 month calendar. (Two semesters; Fall and Spring) Tuition is a monthly payment and remains consistent throughout the season.

All returned checks will be charged a return check fee of $30 per check. If we receive two returned checks during the season, cash payments will be required for further charges.

We strive to give our full attention and class time to our students. If you need to schedule a conference or have any questions please email or call the Center and I will get back to you within 24 hours.
