Gain knowledge of this season's policies and expectations.
It is required for each family to fully read this document before registering.
As a studio, we implement a specific dress code to benefit each dancer enrolled in our program. This document will list the required attire and shoes for both male and female dancers in each class. It is imperative that each dancer has the proper attire and shoes before the first day of class.
If your dancer is enrolled in our Preschool Program use this Handbook to inform and prepare you for their class!
POLICIES
Ballet is required if your child would like to participate in a technique-based dance class. Technique-based classes include Contemporary, Jazz, and Turns and Leaps. Your child does not need to take ballet if they are enrolled in Acro, Hip Hop, or Tap.
Parents will be able to enter the lobby 5 minutes before and after their child's class begins. For example, if your child's class begins at 4pm, the lobby will be open from 3:55pm - 4:05pm. For our dancers' safety, the doors will be locked between each class. All registered parents can log in to the SpotTv app to view classes from any mobile device. See front office for more info.
For dancers that have classes in Suite 612, we ask that all dancers be dropped off and picked up at the front door of that building. In the case that you are late to pick up your child, they will be walked over to the Main Studio by a staff member. Additionally, no dancers will be permitted to walk between studios without adult supervisions.
Makeup classes are available if there is a corresponding and appropriate class that is open. We allow 4 makeup classes to be scheduled within the season. After January, makeup classes will not be available as classes will be prepping for the Showcase.
Students will not be permitted into class after 15 minutes of class start time unless the administration is notified in a timely manner.
If removal/cancellation from a class is needed, an email notification must be sent before the 20th of the month to prevent charges for the following month. If you do not request to be removed from the class before the 20th, you will be charged for that class regardless of whether your child can attend. Studio 61 Dance Company will credit your dance account for the amount due if your child does not attend. Studio 61 Dance Company would not refund or credit any funds if written confirmation in an email was not sent via email before the 20th.
For severe weather, we follow Broward County School System's warnings and advisories. Per studio policy, any circumstance in which we are closed due to inclement weather, we do not offer refunds for any classes missed.
Makeup classes are available if there is a corresponding and appropriate class that is open. We allow 4 makeup classes to be scheduled within the season. After January, makeup classes will not be available as classes will be prepping for Showcase.
