Dancing For Joy Policies

  1. Dancing For Joy uses a web-based software program called The Studio Director that allows you to view the most current class schedules, register for classes, and pay anytime (24x7) from anywhere - even when our studio is closed. You may register online or at our studio. Your registration is considered complete once you pay the $20 Registration Fee, at which point your space will be held in the class.
     
  2. Tuition is due on the first of the month. We require a credit card be linked to your Studio Director account upon registration, even if you do not intend to pay via credit card each month. You may make your payment one of three ways:
    • * Online via The Studio Director at your leisure.
    • * In our office by cash/check or a credit card other than the one linked to your Studio Director account.
    • Enroll in the Automatic Payment Plan via The Studio Director (automatically charges your credit card on the 1st of each month).
    * If you choose option a or b, you must make your payment prior to the 10th of the month. If we don’t receive your payment, we will automatically charge the credit card linked to your account on the 1111, with an additional late fee of $5.

    3.  
  3. Our tuition is calculated in the following way: (based on one student taking one class)
    • Fall Session = 16 weeks of classes at $11.25 per week = $180 for the session. You may pay in 4 installments of $45/month (Sept-Dec).
    • Spring Session = 24 weeks at $11.25 per week = $270 for the session. You may pay in 6 installments of $45/month (Jan-June).

    4.  
  4. We don’t pro-rate tuition. If you drop a class in the middle of the month, you will still be responsible for the full month’s tuition. Since we don’t pro-rate tuition, missed classes (due to illness, vacation or inclement weather) may be made up in another age appropriate class. To attend a make-up class you must go to the office first to pick up a make-up slip. It is not necessary to register for a make-up class ahead of time.
     
  5. Classes will have a minimum of 4 students and a maximum of 12 to 15 students per class (depending on style and age). Some restrictions or extensions may apply for reasons of studio size, age, and number of teachers in class.
     
  6. Cut-off date for signing up or switching classes is March 31st.
     
  7. Class will not be held during the following school breaks (check calendar for specific dates):
        Labor Day
        Thanksgiving
        Christmas Break
        Spring Break
        Memorial Day
