Class time/days posted

Classes start 1st week of September-please bring.....
1) $30 Registration Fee per student due
2) Registration forms filled out and signed. Forms will be available at studio or print off and fill out beforehand.
3) 1st months tuition due

I will be doing -$5 sibling discount this year. For example, if you have two kids doing a one hour class each, one child will be regular price ($35) and 2nd child will get $5 off ($30) I slightly increased tuition this year because I am in the process of renting my own space. If all goes well, my new studio will be in the old Montessori School building in Eden, west of Carlos and Harley's. :) Central location from the Junior High and Elementary schools, more parking, and safer environment but a bigger financial investment for me- I tried to minimize the hike as best I could.

Monthly tuition
1 hr - $35
1 1/2 hr - $52
2 hr- $65
3 hr- $88
4 hr- $108

Class Schedule-(this schedule is pretty set (85% :) I switched older girls class to Wednesday, tried to end it so they could make their mutual activities. I am hoping to add other classes during the week such as ballet, but waiting to hear back :) I feel it important for any student wanting to be on a
competitive team to take a ballet class. I work with all classes on basic technique/terminology but it would greatly enhance their dancing/vocabulary to take a ballet class too. I am waiting to see if it will work out with a new ballet teacher I have been talking with. :)

Creating classes for 2015-16

I am doing a pre-registration. Please leave comment in the post regarding your child age, grade, and style of dance you are interested them in doing. Most of my regular classes, I teach a variety of styles but some of you might want one or more specific styles. According to the imput, I can figure out a basic schedule for classes. I have had many of you interested in your child doing a competiton class this year. We will have a scheduled tryout in which your child will be placed in a comp group according to skill/level and age. You have to be mindful that comp classes are required to take more hours of dance since we typically will be competing against teams that practice 2-8 hours a week. So to sign up you are committing to the time/tuition , competition fees etc. Competition fees are around $20 per dance. The beginning comp classes start at minimum 2 hour block which is $60 per month. The intermediate class starts a minimum of 4 hours per week $100 per month. I will put a list of basic dance styles. Please list one, some, or even all. Classes will be determined by overall interest.
Tap, ballet, hip-hop, jazz, contemporary/lyrical, musical theater, clogging, cheer, acro, competition. Once I have a schedule for classes we will have registration. The registration fee is $30 per child. Bring that with registration papers filled out and signed which I will attach to a post soon with the date/place of registration. Thank you!! Please feel free to share this info with neighbors/friends :)

Tuition
1 hour $30
2 hours $60
3 hours $80
4 hours $100
5+ hours $120
