How tuition works

What sets tuition

Tuition depends on how many classes a week you take, the length of the class and whether you choose ballet, tap or both. A plan covers a whole term, and a class card covers a set number of classes in one term. Our figures are on the registration page, and Marivic is glad to talk them through on the phone.

Registration

A registration covers your file at the studio, the studio's insurance and your place on the registration page. It is due once, when you sign up for your first term.

Billing

A weekly plan is billed monthly, by autopay on the registration page. A class card is paid once, when you pick it up. Tell us at the desk if you would like to pay another way.

Missed classes and make-ups

A class you miss can be made up in any class at your level, or the level below it, within the same term. Book the make-up at the desk or by message. Classes you can't make up are not refunded, and a long illness is worth a conversation.

Uniforms, costumes and other costs

Costs beyond tuition are few. Ballet slippers and tap shoes are yours to buy, and socks are fine for the first weeks. There are no costumes, entry costs or travel, because we don't compete. If you join the showing in May, you wear plain black clothes you may already own; we tell you what is needed before you order anything.

Withdrawing

Tell us before the next term starts if you won't be continuing. A term in progress runs to its end, and you are welcome to come back whenever there is room.
