All Star Dance
2026–2027 Policies & Agreement
Welcome to All Star Dance! We are committed to providing a safe, positive, and professional environment where every student has the opportunity to learn, grow, and enjoy dance.
Please review the following policies carefully. Registration and continued enrollment at All Star Dance indicate acceptance of these policies.
Registration
A $30 non-refundable registration fee per student is required at the time of registration.
Registration is not considered complete, and class placement is not guaranteed, until the registration fee has been paid. Class placement is subject to availability and appropriate age and skill level.
Monthly Tuition
Tuition is due by the 5th of each month.Tuition is based on the full dance season and divided into equal monthly installments. Monthly tuition therefore remains the same regardless of whether a particular month contains three, four, or five scheduled class weeks. Tuition will not be prorated or refunded for student absences, vacations, illness, or other missed classes. A $30 late fee will be applied to accounts with an unpaid tuition balance after the 10th of the month. If an account becomes more than two months past due, All Star Dance reserves the right to suspend or cancel the student's enrollment. Any outstanding balance remains the responsibility of the account holder.
Payment Procedure
All families are required to enroll in automatic payments through DanceStudio Pro and maintain a valid payment method on file. Families who prefer to pay tuition by cash or check may do so by contacting Jane at allstardance21@yahoo.com to make arrangements. Families paying by cash or check are still required to remain enrolled in autopay through DanceStudio Pro.Cash or check payments must be received by the 5th of the month. If payment has not been received by the 5th, the payment method on file may be charged for the outstanding tuition balance. Families are responsible for keeping their payment information current and ensuring that all balances and applicable fees are paid by their due dates.
Withdrawal From a Class
To withdraw a student from a class, families must complete both of the following: Notify All Star Dance in writing of the student's withdrawal. Log into their DanceStudio Pro account and officially drop the student from the class. Simply discontinuing attendance does not constitute withdrawal from a class. Tuition and other applicable charges will remain the responsibility of the account holder until the withdrawal process has been completed.
Attendance
Consistent attendance is important for each student's individual progress and for classes learning group choreography. The final week of regular classes will take place the week before recital week. Recital week will be reserved for studio-wide rehearsals and dress rehearsals as scheduled by All Star Dance.
Late Arrival
Students are expected to arrive on time and ready to participate.Arriving late can disrupt the class and may cause a student to miss important warm-up exercises.
Missed Classes & Make-Ups
Students who miss a regularly scheduled class may request a make-up class within the same month as the absence.Make-up classes must be appropriate for the student's age and skill level and are subject to class availability and instructor approval.
Please speak with the instructor to determine an appropriate make-up class.Make-up classes are not guaranteed and have no monetary or tuition value. Unused make-up classes cannot be carried over beyond the applicable month, credited toward future tuition, transferred to another student, or refunded.No refunds or tuition adjustments will be issued for student absences. If All Star Dance cancels a regularly scheduled class for reasons other than weather or emergency conditions, the studio will provide a rescheduled class or appropriate make-up opportunity.
Inclement Weather & Emergency Closures
The safety of our students, families, and staff is our priority. All Star Dance reserves the right to cancel classes due to inclement weather, unsafe travel conditions, emergencies, or other circumstances beyond the studio's control. Classes canceled due to weather will not be rescheduled, refunded, or prorated. When possible, students affected by a weather cancellation will be offered the opportunity to attend another appropriate class within their same age and skill level, subject to availability. Information regarding studio closures will be communicated to families as soon as reasonably possible.
