Our Studio is designed to be a fun, safe, and loving family atmosphere for you and your child.  We have a few policies for you to keep in mind in order to make this possible.

 

To ensure the safety of your child, please pick them up in the lobby of the studio after class.  If someone other than a parent or guardian is going to be picking up your child, please inform the Front Desk Receptionist, or your child’s teacher.

 

The first full week in October and April will be a special observance week for Parents only.  Parents are welcome to come into class and observe the progress of your child during that week.  Children tend to lose focus and control when we add observers in the room.  We ask that you kindly let the teachers control the progress and discipline of the class. 

​

Special note to Twos Move parents- we understand that for the first few weeks your child may cry coming to class. It is a transition period for them.  Rest assured that they are being loved and taken care of.  We ask that you give hugs and kisses at the door and let us take it from there.  

 

Absences

If your child is going to be absent from class due to sickness or a school function, please let us know.  Any absence from a class may be made up in another class of the same level or lower.  Please try to fit in all make-up classes prior to the month ending. Check with your Teacher to find out the most suitable make-up times.  

 

Dress Code

For your child’s safety, we need all students to wear cover ups over their leotards and tights when coming and going into dance.  We are located on a busy street and our primary concern is to reduce the knowledge that our dancers are on display to the world.

 

Additionally, we need all adults and teens to remember that we are a full-service dance center that caters to ages 2 years-adult.  Many adults and teens wear clothing with slogans and sayings that may be inappropriate for our younger students.  Therefore, please wear appropriate clothing while in the studio.
