In the event that performances are possible, in-studio students will be given the option to participate. Those who choose to perform will require a costume for each class. The timing of these plans will determine how we acquire our costumes. The cost of each recreational costume will not exceed $96 plus HST. Costume deposits and payments are non-refundable. Recital performances will not be available for online students.
A Recital Media Fee of $20 + HST (per recreational family) and $30 + HST (per competitive family) will be charged for those who choose to perform in the recitals. This allows you viewing and downloading access to all recitals for the current season.
