IMPORTANT Dance Etiquette: At our studio, our primary goal is for your children to have fun while learning dance technique and a strong work ethic. We expect all dancers to show respect to themselves, each other, and all instructors. You will see our instructors enforcing the following rules:
• Be prepared for class. Proper dress code is required for all dance classes.
• Hair must be pulled up and secured back. Ballet students must wear hair in a bun.
• Use the restroom prior to class.
• Do not have frequent class absences.
• No cell phones in the dance studio. (Please keep all personal items in your dance bag.)
• No gum is allowed in class.
• Be respectful and kind to instructors, peers, and all J-N-M staff.
• Do not talk during class unless you are asking a question.
• No leaning, lounging or hanging on the ballet barres.
• Clap at the end of class to show respect for yourself, your fellow dancers, and the instructor.
• If injured, tell instructor prior to class starting .Injured dancers are still required to report to class but will sit out and and observe.
• If ill, do not come to class.
We believe good dance etiquette is of equal importance to good dance technique.
Studio Rules for Dancers:
• No running, yelling or rough playing at the dance studio or the church.
• Help keep your studio clean and tidy. Please throw away all trash.
• No gossip, obscene language or inappropriate conversations are tolerated during class or around the studio.

• It is the dancers responsibility to manage their time so that dance, schoolwork, and other outside activities do not conflict.
