SHOWCASE/RECITAL
Any student enrolled as of February 1, 2022 is assumed to participate in the end-of-season recital and will be responsible for the cost of costumes (except Adult classes and Non-Recital (NR) classes as noted on the schedule). Students may opt out of the recital any time before February 1st by notifying the office. Those who opt out of recital cannot then opt back in after February 1st.
ATTENDANCE & MAKE-UP CLASSES
Please notify the office via email of any absences in advance when possible. Missed classes can be made up, preferably by attending a class of similar style and age group. Dancers ages 8+ can also arrange for a virtual Zoom class if they’re unable to attend class in person due to mild illness or other extenuating circumstances, as long as the office is given enough notice. Contact the office via email to arrange make-up and Zoom classes.
TARDINESS
Classes begin promptly at their scheduled start time. If you’re early, you’re on time, if you’re on time, you’re late! At the teacher’s discretion, tardy students may be asked to observe class only for the day if they have missed more than the first 10-15 minutes, which includes the warm-up, as missing this important part of class can lead to injury.
FREE TRIAL CLASSES
Free trial classes are for new students only and only for regularly scheduled classes. Free trial classes do not apply to Open Combo Classes where an Activ8 Director is not the instructor. Free trial classes do not apply to master classes, guest teacher classes, or any special event/workshop classes.
LOW ENROLLMENT CLASSES
Classes with low enrollment (under 5 students) may be cancelled, combined with another class, or moved, at any time at the discretion of the studio Directors. Students will be notified via email at least 24 hours prior in the event that their class is being cancelled/combined/moved. In this event, there will be no refund of tuition for classes run up to this point. There will be no refund of additional fees (registration, costumes, etc.), unless the costume has not yet been ordered from the costume company. For classes that are 45 minutes or longer, and have enrollment of 2 students or less, the instructor may choose to run class for a shorter period of time while tuition remains the same, as this is a private or semi-private lesson. Class time will return to normal if more students enroll. (45 minute class becomes 30 minutes, 60 minute class becomes 40-50 minutes, 90 minute class becomes 45-60 minutes, at the discretion of the instructor)
