Watching Class

• Parents and visitors may watch class from the benches outside the dance studio.
• If kids get too distracted, we may close the window curtains.

Young Students

• Parents must assist their child in the bathroom.
• Students should use the bathroom before class starts.

On The Floor

• Arrive 5 minutes early for dance class.
• Only water is permitted in the dance studio.
  (No other beverages or snacks)
• Turn cell phone to silent mode.
• No outside shoes on the dance floor; no dance shoes outside.

Positive Attitude

	YES		NO
	smiles and fun		pouting and complaining
	try your best		saying “I can’t do it” or “It’s too hard”
	raise hand to ask questions		interrupting the instructor
	respect the instructor		rude behavior
	wear appropriate clothes		sloppy attire/hair/forgotten items

Late Arrivals

We always give a 10-minute leeway for unexpected delays. If a student arrives to class more than 10 minutes late, there will be no admittance onto the dance floor.
• A late arrival means that the student has missed warm-ups, which are very important to help prevent injuries.
• Late arrivals disrupt the class in progress.
In case of a late arrival, it is still very important to come anyways and watch class from the lobby, while taking notes, and recording video of new choreography and/or techniques. This way, the student will still benefit from instructions given, and new things being taught.

Injuries

If a student has an injury, or is feeling mildly ill, it is still important to come to class and watch instruction/choreography from the lobby. If it is at all possible to come, please try to come to avoid falling behind in class.

Absences

If you have to miss class, you may schedule a ½-hour private lesson to get caught up with your class, which is $35. Visit our PRIVATE LESSONS page for more info.
