POLICIES & CLASS PLACEMENT
DANCE CLASS PLACEMENT
Children are placed in classes according to level of proficiency and consideration of age.
Placement changes may occur during the first two weeks of class. Mastering the academics of dance should be an enjoyable experience for children.
We understand and share your concerns; therefore, we gladly work with you and your child and our teachers to insure appropriate class assignments.
