Recreational Program
Tuition & Policies

Below are our Recreational Program Policies.  By registering for classes you are agreeing to these policies.

​

Registration Policy

Registration is accepted on a first come first serve basis.

Registration may be completed online or at the studio.

Classes will be closed to further enrollment once maximum capacity has been reached.

An annual registration fee of $45 per student will be collected at the time of enrollment plus first and last month's tuition payment. ($10 registration fee for additional students in same family)

​

Dance Class Tuition

Tuition is a monthly fee due on the first of each month. Each class meets weekly.

​

Tuition is based on a 35 week dance year.  Payments are broken up into 10 equal monthly payments.  There are no tuition adjustments on a monthly basis based on the number of times classes meet. Some months will have 5 classes while others may have 3 due to holidays and school closings.

​

Students enrolling before the 15th of the month will be charged the full month’s tuition for that month. Students enrolling after the 15th of the month will be charged half the monthly tuition for that month.

​

All families must have a credit or debit card on file from which tuition and other fees are drafted on due dates. If payment is not received by the 5th, a $15 late fee will automatically be added to the account.  We use an automatic payment system that will charge your credit or debit card on file on the 1st of each month. All charges will appear on your bank or credit card statement as being from Duet Dance. A $25 NSF fee will apply if payment is declined on the card on file.

​

Dance Class Discounts

We offer a sibling discount of 10% off additional children’s monthly tuition in the same family/household.

​

Recreational Program Fee

The Recreational Program Fee is $130 for each student enrolled in a Recreational Class.

Recreational program fees are deemed due when you register for class and will be charged to the credit/debit card on file with the January tuition payment on January 1.  

This fee pays for a student's recital fee, recital t-shirt, video of the recital performance, and administration of the Recreational Program.  

Each family receives 2 tickets to the Spring Recital as part of this fee. 

The Recreational Program Fee for additional students in the same family is $80. 

By registering for classes you are agreeing to pay this fee.

Recreational Program Fees are non-refundable.  Upon withdrawal from class during the year, the Recreational Program Fee will need to be paid if withdrawal occurs after November 30.

​​

Costume  Fee

Costume Fee varies by class level (listed below) and is a per costume fee.

Each Recreational Class will have one (1) costume unless we tell you otherwise. 

Classes for multiple dance styles will have one dance and one costume.  The instructor will pick the strongest dance style for the class to perform in the recital. 

Costume fees are deemed due when you register for class.

Students enrolled by October 30th will be charged the Costume Fee with their November tuition payment. 

Students enrolled after October 30th will pay the Costume Fee upon enrollment. 

​

Pre-K Classes - $80 Costume Fee

Mini, Junior, & Elementary Classes - $85 Costume Fee
Teen Classes - $95 Costume Fee

Acro Classes - $80 Costume Fee

​

General Policies

Registration fees and tuition payments are non-refundable

There will be no prorating or refunds given due to missed classes or classes cancelled due to inclement weather.

Each student is encouraged to make up missed classes in another appropriate leveled class.

In the event the studio is forced to close for a period of time or is otherwise prohibited from having in-person classes, for example, due to a pandemic or health related emergency, Duet may, at its sole discretion, utilize on-line learning techniques (e.g., video conference, recorded video sessions, etc.) in lieu of traditional in-person classes.
