Guidelines

Student Expectations

  • Arrive at class on time and in appropriate attire with correct dance shoes and hair secured away from face. 

  • Dancers who receive a prop kit should bring it to class each week.

  • Use the bathroom before arriving at class, if possible, so that we can start class on time with minimal distractions.

  • Bring a water bottle to class. Keep snacks outside the studio. No peanuts in the building.

  • Bring a positive attitude to class. Work your best and encourage your classmates.

  • Be respectful of other classes that are in session.

  • For dancers in leotards: Please wear cover up clothing when entering/exiting the building.

Parent/Adult Student Expectations

  • Make attendance and timeliness a priority.
    Keep your email, phone, address and payment information current in our database.

  • Stay informed about classes and studio information by reading our monthly “To the Pointe” email newsletters.

  • We are always happy to help — please ask us if you have any questions. During classes and in the time in-between two classes, teachers will be focused on their dancers and may not always have time to talk. Emailing or calling the studio with questions for your teacher or with administrative questions is always a good solution.
