Discounts

This year we are excited to provide discounts to qualifying students. Please see the different discount options below that may make your overall tuition more affordable.

No discount for a single student. 10% discount applied to 2nd family member. 15% discount applied for a 3rd family member, and 20% applied to a 4th family member. Additional family members will maintain a 20% discount after that.  

Pay all 9 payments upfront and receive a 5% additional discount.

5%-20% scholarship discounts available for students who help assist classes. Amount of discount is determined according to experience level and the amount of classes assisting. See Bree for more information. Must attend all mandatory trainings and miss no more than 3 classes that you assist in per school year. Contract will be signed upfront if chosen to assist. Assistant spots are limited, so please inquire ASAP. Must be 12 years old to assist or receive clearance from Bree or Erin.

We will no longer add credit to accounts for canceled group classes or breaks for holidays. The fee scale is based on a 34 week instruction plan. If classes are canceled more than two weeks in a row, we will consider crediting accounts according to the situation, but it’s not guaranteed. Private lessons are exempt and can be credited if classes are canceled. Please see our private lesson policies for more detailed information. Ask for a copy at the front desk.

Why the Change in Tuition Prices?

As a studio we must balance keeping up with the ever changing economy but still try to keep our families happy. The new tuition fees are based on an hourly rate per week. Even though fees seem higher upfront if a student just takes one class per week, it is our hope that this new tuition pay scale will encourage families and students to spend more time in our studio and take more classes with us at a lower cost in the long run. The more classes you take, the bigger the discount in price compared to our tuition from past years. The base rate may start out larger, but the increments charged per every 15 minutes are cut in half compared to last year’s tuition increases. So we hope this helps our families who want to take multiple classes and include multiple students.

Company/Competition choreography is exempt from monthly tuition rates. Choreography is charged for each routine chosen (solo, duo, trio, or 4+ group). Please see our choreography fees document for more information on choreography fees and requirements.
