The student agrees to abide by the rules and regulations of the Joy of Dance and acknowledges that these rules and regulations may change from time to time. At Joy of Dance you are family, so please pick up after yourself. Our lost and found box is already full. Please come prepared with proper dance shoes, no outside shoes in the dance floor areas. Please check in at reception before class. We want to say hello and make sure you get to the right studio.

Not sure which class level is right for you? We encourage you to take the lower level class and switch the next week. We call it Slow, Slow, Quick, Quick.  Start slow and you will get to quick faster.

Students can join registered classes up until the third class of the term and the change of dance within the term. We only hold a place for you if you pay for the class, otherwise we are happy to put you on the waiting list until you decide. Each term you get two flexible credits for classes if you give us 24 hours’ notice you will be away. These credits can be used in jump-in classes only.

Fees are due before getting on the dance floor. All dance packages are valid for one year. Group classes with each private lesson are concurrently valid with private lessons (one lesson, one class each week).

We do not give refunds.
