Cancelation for weather or emergency
If we need to close the studio due to weather, we will post it on our website and send a studio-wide email. Weather Cancellations will not be made up. If the instructor needs to cancel a class due to an emergency and cannot find a sub, our best efforts will be made to contact everyone via email and phone. The instructor will schedule a make-up class for that cancelation.
Attendance and Make-Ups
Regular attendance is required to progress in skill and learn choreography. If a student is absent more than 2 weeks in a row, a private lesson may be requested. Students have the option to attend a different class as a make-up for absence. Please ask instructor for an appropriate class. There are no make-ups for holiday closures.
