Enrollment
Studio J’s primary dance season runs from September
through May each year. New students will not
be
accepted for the current season after December 20th
due to recital preparations. There is a $35
enrollment fee
per student, per season.
This administrative fee is non-refundable and
non-transferable. Enrollment is based solely on a first come, first
served basis each season. Students with past due accounts will not be
permitted to enroll until the account is paid in full. Current students
are not
guaranteed a
position in future seasons. Early enrollment is encouraged to avoid
class closings and being placed on a waiting list.
Tuition
Tuition is calculated based on the entire nine-month
season (September – May) and divided into monthly payments for your
convenience. The number of classes per month will vary due to holiday
breaks, however this will not
affect the monthly tuition rate. Tuition is non-refundable, but is
transferable. Tuition is due the first week of each month and may be
paid by cash or check only. There is a tuition box located on the front
desk for you to drop payments in if there is no front desk attendant.
Please be sure to write the student’s name(s) on your check and put cash
in an envelope. There is a $25.00 charge on all returned checks and
checks will not
be processed more
than once.
A $10.00 late fee will be added to accounts not
paid by the 15th of
each month.
Any student whose account is past due 30 days will
not be permitted to participate in class the following month until
tuition is current, including any late fees and/or penalties. Any
student whose account is more than 60 days past due forfeits their place
in class and will be required to pay any past due fees and then enroll
as a new student, if space permits.

Attendance
There are no
refunds,
adjustments or credits for missed classes, however make-ups may be
possible if the missed class is offered at another time. Please call the
front desk to arrange for a make-up. Dress rehearsals are mandatory;
please communicate any conflicts with your instructor as soon as
possible to avoid exclusion from any performance.
Closings
Studio J generally follows the Edmond Public School
calendar, however there are exceptions.
Please check
newsletters and/or the website for any closings and cancellations. If
the school district closes for weather, Studio J will most likely be
closed as well. Please call the studio or check the website to be for
sure. Make up classes for weather-related closings will be provided
whenever possible, but are not guaranteed.
Dress Code
Proper dance attire is required and specific to each
class in order to allow free movement and prevent injury. Proper attire
will also help the instructor observe body placement and therefore
provide appropriate instruction and correction. Please note the
following guidelines:
-
All hair must be
secured away from dancer’s face.
-
Jewelry is not permitted, with the
exception of stud earrings.
-
Jeans and short shorts are not
permitted.
Recitals
Studio J presents two recitals each year. There are no
fees for the Christmas recital, which takes place in December. Beginning
Combo students wear their ballet class attire; all other students wear
all black with a snow hat and gloves. The end-of-season recital takes
place in May each year. There is a nonrefundable $20.00 recital fee per
student due in April to cover recital costs. Admittance to this show is
free to friends and family. Costume selections are entirely up to the
discretion of the instructors and range in price from approximately
$45.00 to $75.00. A deposit of $30 per costume
is due
in November and the remaining balance is due in January. Costume fees
are non-refundable and non-transferable once the costumes have been
ordered.
