POLICIES

General Studio Policies

1. We request that students carefully observe our Dress Code.

2. Good attendance and prompt arrival to class are very important to the success of the class and the dancer, and to receive full benefit from your class, please arrange for a make-up class if you expect to be very late.

3. No GUM, FOOD or SODA allowed in the dance room. Students should not wear bracelets, necklaces or dangling/hoop earrings to class.

4. All students are encouraged not to leave the room once the class has begun. Please allow for appropriate restroom use prior to class. Very young children will be treated sensitively as the need arises. Preschool children may need a parent’s attention from time to time for various reasons iare encouraged to use the restroom prior to class time. We make every effort to have all children feel safe and cared for in a loving and inspiring learning environment.

5. The well-being of our students and their families is of utmost concern to us. We do ask that parents drop off and pick up your child outside the lobby doors to keep the number of people coming into the lobby.  However, we understand that our younger students may need the assistance of their parent i.e. going to the restroom prior to class, putting on shoes, etc.  We just ask that once you have assisted your child that you go ahead and leave the lobby area.  A staff member/instructor should be in the lobby till 6:30 p.m. If you leave your children unattended inside the lobby of NLDS, or outside the building, please note they will not have adult supervision from the Teachers/Staff of NLDS. Please remember that our instructors and office staff cannot be responsible for your child before or after their class. Your child’s instructor has another class starting immediately or is eager to get home to her family. Thank you for your consideration for both your child and our instructors.

6. Students are not allowed to wait outside…at any age. Students must wear proper cover ups when arriving and leaving the studio. No bathing suits to be worn to the studio during the summer months. No dance shoes are to be worn outside the studio.

7. School age children and teens: please practice respect. Students are not to be socializing in a disruptive manner during the class with other students.  Please honor your teacher and fellow students by giving full attention and co-operation. You will be advised if we feel any student is not well adjusted to the classroom environment for any reason over time.

8. Students should arrive to class properly dressed according to the studio Dress Code. Please note that students should NOT wear their dance shoes outside as this ends up bringing dirt in to our studio dance floors.  Hair for ballet should be in a secured bun with bobby pins and hair net.

9. Parents must call and notify the instructor and/or staff member if their child is to leave class early. If a student leaves the premises before classes end, the studio reserves the right to contact the parent to confirm the student had permission to leave early. If your child drives themselves to the studio we ask that you inform them of this rule as it will directly impact them if they try to leave early without the studio being notified by the parent.

Dance class is education and fun, however, an important part of class work is developing an attitude of discipline and respect for teachers and fellow students. We trust that following our classroom etiquette will provide an environment whereby classes at No Limits Dance Studio will be a pleasure for all concerned.

Tuition and Payment Policies

All payments are due on the first of each calendar month.
 

Payment Methods

We accept cash, check or credit card payments.  Recurring payments/Auto pay is also an option and can be set up at the studio or through your online account.

Our students are in our database alphabetically by their last name. Many of our students have different last names from parents and/or grandparents who are paying for dance expenses. In order for us to properly credit your account, please include the following information in the memo of your check:
1. Student(s) First and Last Name
2. What you are paying for: Monthly Tuition (include the month), Dance Supplies (Shoes, Leotard), Costume, Tickets, etc.

You will be paying for the entire school year of approximately 43-44 weeks of classes held over 11 months August - June (inclusive of the extra practice for Creative Movement and Pre Combo classes, the tech/dress rehearsal for Level I and up and the time spent with students the day of recital). This is an approximate average of 3.6-4 classes per month. You are not paying for scheduled school vacations and Holidays. Please see our published calendar in this booklet. The Registration Fee is due at the time of registration. All other months are due on the first of each calendar month. Costume fees are due by Thanksgiving.  We accept cash, checks or VISA/Mastercard payments. 

The calendar in each month will vary depending on which day you have your class. Some months you may have 2 or 3 classes, others 4 or 5. Everyone will have had approximately 43-44 classes over the eleven months. If for any reason you decide to discontinue your classes, you are not obligated to pay for the balance of the school year. However, we must receive written notice of your intent to drop classes. Only at that time will you not be obligated for the monthly tuition.

We have a very fair policy regarding our payment for tuition and subsequent assessment of late fees. Payments are due on the first of each calendar month. There is no late fee assessed until after 10th of the month. Any account unpaid after the tenth of the month will have a late fee of $25. Payments may be made at the office, online or by mail. No credit is given for student absences or missed classes due to weather conditions. If you make a payment late, please include your late fee or you will be billed (no exceptions). If you make your payments by mail, be certain to allow adequate time for mail delivery. Thank you for your co-operation. Returned check fee is $35.

Any student with an overdue balance of more than 45 days will not be allowed into class until payment in full is received. Overdue balances must be paid by cash, check, credit or debit card.

If you change your class style, add or delete a class or have any questions concerning the monthly charge, please inform someone in the office.

Please make up any missed class within one month of your absence if possible; no credit will be given for missed classes.

If for any reason you decide to discontinue your classes, you are not obligated to pay for the balance of the school year. However, the studio must be informed in writing or email of your decision to discontinue classes. You will be charged for the entire month you make the decision to discontinue classes.

The quality of our facility and faculty depends upon a system of mutual respect and cooperation. We understand that anyone may make a late payment from time to time, but please be respectful of our late fee policy and when applicable, graciously include your late fee in your next payment.
