Monthly Tuition Information

Class Schedule & Make-up Classes

Tuition is based on 4 week months. Please note that tuition remains unchanged even during months with holidays or studio closures. However, we understand the importance of consistency in training, and dancers are welcome to makeup missed classes. Please check with the front desk before attending a make-up class.

Refund Policy for Missed Classes

Regrettably, we are unable to offer refunds for missed classes. However, we encourage students to utilize the make-up class options.
