How does the costume bank work?

Costume rental is already included in your class fees, so there’s no extra cost to worry about. We measure the dancers for their costumes in January and February, and they get to try them on in April and May to ensure everything fits perfectly.

For our Wee Dance, Combo Class, and Level 1 dancers, we provide a base layer so they can change comfortably at home. This base layer will be handed out after the staging rehearsal, and we ask that it be returned to the studio at your next class after the recital.

What is the policy on observing classes?

We have an open-door policy, allowing parents to observe classes if they wish. However, we’ve found that most students learn best when they are not observed by family members. Part of the dance experience is fostering teamwork and independence, which helps students build confidence and focus during class. While you're always welcome to watch, we encourage you to give your child the space to grow and develop these important skills.

How do you communicate important updates and information?

We communicate important updates and information primarily through our website. We also send out a regular newsletter to keep you informed. However, sometimes the newsletter may be marked as spam, so we make sure to repost it on our Facebook page and maintain a newsletter archive for easy access. This way, you can always stay up-to-date with the latest news and announcements.
