Inclement Weather
Just a reminder: if there is no class due to the weather, it will be put on the studio voicemail no later than 3:30 pm during the week and 7:30 am on Saturday. We will also email and post on all social media outlets. Please call the studio if you are unsure.
Dance Videos
When we email out the dance videos home to parents, it is not only so you can see the students’ progress but also as a tool to help kids practice at home. It would be very helpful if students referenced the videos at home for extra practice before they come to class each week. If you are not getting videos, please let us know immediately. We will email videos home at least once a month.
ATTENDANCE POLICY REMINDER/EMAILS
Please read our attendance policy as a reminder: Once your child has 12 UNEXCUSED absences they will NO LONGER BE ABLE TO PERFORM IN RECITAL, regardless if you have already purchased the costume or any items associated with Recital. An excused absence is one where a doctor’s note is provided. Please submit documentation to the office to have your attendance marked as EXCUSED. If students are absent on a regular basis, it hinders the whole class and choreography. Some routines also require partners or assistants for stunts so if everyone is not present, it would negatively impact others. If your child habitually misses class you will be required to schedule a private lesson for the cost of $25 at the instructor’s discretion. If your child is going to miss class please call/email/message us to make us aware. We are tracking attendance and will reach out if you are coming close to not being able to participate in Recital. Keep in mind this is the LAST thing we want to happen so please help us to keep your child in Recital. We have started emailing people who have 6 or more absences to remind them about the policy. If you have received one of these emails, please pay close attention to their attendance since that is already 50% of the allocated absences and we still have five months left before recital.

Texting
Just an FYI regarding our texting system. If you respond to a text message sent more than 30 days ago, we will not get the contact information as to who is responding. For best results, please email the office at [email protected]
Costumes
If your child is in Mini Movers or not in Recital please disregard the following information. When we get the costumes in, they are steamed, inspected, and put in a garment bag. The label on the garment bag has your child’s name, what class the costume is for, what color/type tights they need, what shoes they need, and what accessories are included. From there, your child will try them on in class to make sure they fit and look good. Not all costumes are in as I still have ship dates in March so do not worry if you do not get your costumes for a while. When we try them on in class, if you are concerned with the size, THAT is the ONLY time to request a size exchange for $10. Once the costumes leave the studio, I can no longer accept them back for a return. We will also determine the placement of accessories during the try on. This will then be documented and put into the costume book (which you will have access to shortly). You CANNOT lose the costume or any of the pieces and the kids should NOT be playing with or trying on the costume at home. Please put it somewhere safe until picture week. Some costumes may need slight alterations so please have this done before picture week. If you lose any pieces please let me know ASAP and you will be required to order a new costume at $85. There is a chance the costume will NOT ship in time and if that happens, your child CANNOT participate in Recital.
