Welcome to Inspire Dance SB School of Technique and Performing Arts! We are so very happy to have you join our community and look forward to sharing the beauty and joy of dance with you. We strive to provide a positive, well balanced and focused environment for each student at our school and so we must follow a few guidelines to maintain these standards.

 Students must attend class in the proper attire. No jewelry or watches are to be worn during class.

Everything can be purchased online at Discount Dance Supply (see links below) and will be available soon at Harlequins.

All ballet students must wear pink tights and pink leather ballet slippers. Hair is to be worn in a bun. Short hair pulled back.

Tuition
Monthly tuition is due on the 1st of the month (invoices are not mailed unless payment is past due).  After the 5th, a $15 late fee will be assessed.  There is a $25 fee for returned checks.  No credits, refunds, or adjustments will be given for missed lessons, however, students are encouraged to attend a make up class in one level above or below their own.

Annual Registration fee is $35/per family

Single class rate (pay at time of lesson): $20 per 1 hr. class

Please arrive 5-10 minutes prior to the start of class and change into proper shoes and attire. Being focused at the start of class is key to success.

Instructors will take attendance as dancers enter the studio. If your dancer is not listed on the instructor’s roster as enrolled or attending a make-up class, the instructor will have you contact the office to resolve the situation.

Dancers who arrive more than 10 minutes late will not be permitted to attend class but may watch the remainder of the class time. You may schedule a make-up class with the office.

NO food, drinks (other than bottled water), cell phones, or electronic devices are allowed in the studios.

For the health of everyone, PLEASE do not attend class when sick (your dancer can make up any missed classes when feeling better).

You may make up a missed class by attending a comparable, age-appropriate class at any time during your active enrollment in the school. Please pre-schedule a make-up class by contacting the office. Our faculty will keep track of missed classes and available make-ups. If you cancel your enrollment, all remaining make-ups are forfeited. Credits, refunds, or extensions will not be granted.
