CODE OF BEHAVIOUR Perceived pressure to please parents can add to the stress (both positive and negative) of daily living and growing. The code of behaviour for parents is simply to support and reassure your child that dance and music is for enjoyment and that they are loved for themselves rather than for their achievements. This is imperative for the overall success of our studio and supports the foundation of our beliefs.
MULTIPLE PAYEES If an account is being paid by multiple payees the primary registrant deems responsible for ensuring payment on the account is up to date. Adagé Studio Inc. will take zero responsibility for liaising between parties.
