Assumption of Risk/Release of Liability
I understand and acknowledge that there is a slight risk of injury inherent in dance and acrobatic activities and that personal injury or damage to property may result during participation in dance classes, camps, and related activities. I represent that my child is physically able to safely participate in camps, dance, and related activities. I agree to assume all risks associated with my child's participation in summer camp, regular dance instruction, rehearsal, performance, and related activities. In consideration, of attending and participating in all the activities included in enrollment at Nina's School of Dance, I hereby waive, release, and discharge all present and future claims and liabilities of any kind, whether for bodily injury, property damage, or other loss, arising out of my child's participation in the camp, dance and related activities. This is also including but not limited to camp activities, dance instruction, rehearsals, and performances, whether conducted on or off Nina's School of Dance premises. I also acknowledge that I am responsible for delivering my child to the studio and picking her/him up and that the studio is not responsible for a child that leaves the premises.
Withdrawal Policy
Early withdrawal from a class before the completion of the year requires a 30 day written withdrawal notice emailed to nwheeler5678@icloud.com. The parent/guardian will be responsible for tuition until the notice is sent and accepted.
In the event of closures or restrictions, recommended or mandated, by a governing body, classes will continue virtually in some capacity. In the event of a closure, withdrawal notification and payment policies remain unchanged. We are not able to refund or pro-rate due to unforeseen closures.
