Pandemic/National/Natural disasters Payment Policy: We appreciate the challenges presented in operating the dance studio under unforeseen Pandemic/National/Natural disaster scenarios. Our dancers can be assured that once the studio is allowed to reopen, we will follow all guidelines required by applicable Washington State and local authorities. Until the studio is allowed to reopen and conduct in person classes, we will continue to offer online class options from our instructors. Once the studio is allowed to reopen, the studio will continue to offer both online classes and in person classes at the studio. Under these circumstances, the studio cannot offer tuition refunds once dancers sign up for classes as the students will be able to take such classes either in person or online. If a student is diagnosed with a pandemic virus and provides medical proof of such diagnosis, the studio will refund the prorated portion of the tuition payment made by the student.
