Registration Information

Registration may be conducted by mail, in person, via fax, or online.
Phone registrations cannot be accepted. Registration is accepted on a first-come, first served basis and class sizes are limited. Tuition for Creative Movement, The Nutcracker Workshop, or Maintenance Classes is due in full prior to the start of each session. Tuition for all other classes may be paid in full at time of registration or in four equal payments during the year. A 15% sibling discount off the lesser tuition amount applies to the second, third, etc. child enrolling for classes. The full tuition or first payment (1/4 of listed tuition) is due with your registration form or until your class fills.

Tuition may be paid by cash, check, money order or credit card (Visa, MasterCard, American Express, or Discover). If paying by credit card, the first charge will be made when your registration form is received. If you would like your credit card charged automatically on the remaining due dates, please select the auto charge box on the registration form. Bill account summaries will be mailed to the billed party approximately three weeks prior to the tuition due date. Payments received after the due dates will be assessed a $10 late fee. Monthly payment arrangements can be made with the Registrar. Students with delinquent accounts will not be allowed to participate in class.

All tuition is non-refundable, except in the event of a serious illness or injury.
Requests for refunds must be made in writing and be accompanied by a doctor’s certificate of inability to continue class. Refunds will be prorated and will be assessed a $25 processing fee.
