Participation Release
I hereby give permission for my child or myself to fully participate in the Artistic Dance Academy programs. I understand that, as with any sport, there are certain inherent risks in dance and gymnastics participation, and that I, intending to be legally bound waive and release Artistic Dance Academy and its employees of all responsibility for any injury sustained by my child or myself in connection with Artistic Dance Academy, its owner, employees or its facility. I also understand that it is the studio policy that all children are not permitted to play outside on the property grounds. I understand and agree that any children I bring to the studio will remain inside and studio facility and that they will remain in my care and that it is my sole responsibility to watch out for their wellbeing both inside Artistic Dance Academy and on the grounds.
Tuition is due on the first class of the first week of the month. A $10.00 late fee will be added to all tuition received after the 10th day grace period and $15.00 late fee will be charged after the 15th day.
There is a $30.00 fee for all returned checks. Once a student is enrolled into a group or private class, payment for the entire month is due regardless of any or all missed classes by the student. There are no makeup classes. If a student is no longer participating in our program a notification must be made before the next month begins or you will be held accountable for that next month's tuition, no matter what.
Proper attire, hair and shoes must be worn at all times. Being on time is a vital part of respect for both the teacher and other students. If you are more that 15 minutes late it is up to the teacher's discretion if the student may part take in class. Please be on time!
There are absolutely no refunds for classes, registration fees, recital tickets or recital costumes, Once the costumes have been ordered, the parent is responsible for this payment to the studio.
Costumes sizes are ordered by measuring the student and ordering those sizes according to size charts set forth by the costume company. Most recital costumes fit very well. However, due to different sizes and shapes of some children, most notably long girth measurements, some costumes may need to be altered and will be taken care of by the parent.
If you chose to have an automatic payment done, the money will be charged on the 10th of the month.
