Covid-19 Release
The World Health Organization has declared the novel Coronavirus (Covid-19) a worldwide pandemic. Due to its capacity to transmit from person-to-person through respiratory droplets, the government has set recommendations, guidelines and some prohibitions which Kristy's Dance Fusion Inc. adheres to comply. I understand if my child is showing any signs of cough, fever, difficulty breathing, fatigue or any other symptoms related to Covid-19, they should not come to the studio; but instead participate in their dance class in real time on Zoom. If my child has been exposed to someone with Covid-19 they will not attend classes at the dance studio but will participate in their dance class in real time on Zoom while self-monitoring for 14 days. In the event that a teacher feels a child is showing symptoms of illness during class, the child will be asked to wear their mask (or a disposable one can be provided) the child will be moved to a more safe and secluded area and the parent will be called for pickup. I understand I am willingly and voluntarily allowing my child to participate in an activity where they are around other people, thus increasing their risk of contraction. I understand the risk associated with allowing my child to participate in dance classes. I understand Kristy's Dance Fusion Inc. will do whatever it can to prevent the spread of the disease. Kristy's Dance Fusion Inc. cannot be held responsible should any child, parent, guardian contract Covid-19 while utilizing Kristy's Dance Fusion's services.
Arrival and Pickup
Our lobby is closed in attempts to limit traffic in the building due to Covid-19. Please wait in your car upon arrival and line up outside the front door roughly 5-10 minutes prior to class starting. A staff GREETER will be meeting your child at the door roughly 5-10 minutes prior to the class start time. Masks are encouraged for the dancers as they enter and exit the building. Be sure to pick up your child promptly at the end of their class. A staff GREETER will again be releasing the children to their parent outside the building at the end of class. Please drive slowly in the side and back parking lot and on the street in front of the building. Please meet your child on the same side of the street, as opposed to waving them across the street. We have 10 minutes in between classes to move traffic so we appreciate your cooperation in arriving on time. You will receive more details about which entrance and exit to use for your child's classes.
Payment Policies
Our dance season runs from September-May.
Tuition payment options: Credit Card (Visa, M/C) or monthly post dated cheques.
For credit card payments there are two payment options: full year payment (with a 2% discount) or tuition will be pushed to the credit card for 3 months dance tuition at a time (Sept-Nov) (Dec-Feb) (Mar-May) at the beginning of each 3 month period.
Cheques are to be written for the whole year dated the 1st of each month. You can pay by cheque one month per cheque, 3 months of tuition per cheque or the full year with a 2% discount.
Monthly tuition is mandatory until the studio has received a written request of cancellation. Any attendance during a month constitutes a full month's tuition. We require one month's notice of cancellation of classes.
A registration fee of $30.00 + GST per family is due and payable at the time of registration and is non-refundable.
A costume deposit of $50.00 per class and first month of tuition is due 5 days after your dance schedule has been emailed to you for students who are new to our studio. This will serve as confirmation of your registration. This deposit will be subtracted from your costume invoice that is sent out when the costumes arrive for our year end dance showcase and/or competitions. The costume deposit becomes non-refundable by October 31, 2020. The costume deposit will not be taxed. Costumes will be subject to 11% tax (GST & PST).
Our returning students will not need to submit a costume deposit at this time. We will attempt to re-use costumes, purchased last season, that the dancers didn't get to wear. If new costumes need to be purchased we will request a costume deposit at that time.
All dance tuition is subject to 5% GST.
Tuition is due on the 1st of the month. A late fee of 3% will be applied after the 10th of the month if tuition is outstanding.
In the event of a health ordered closure due to Covid, all classes will immediately move to Zoom without interruption in tuition. Classes such as Acro and Pointe may be suspended due to the delicate nature of the work in class. Class schedule may change slightly but our plan would be to run all classes at the same times that they ran in person, without interruption. If the health ordered closure lasted longer than 2 months we would re-evaluate our position.
