General Policies

There is a NON-REFUNDABLE annual registration fee of $45 per student or $70 per family through our website creating your own customer account. Once account is created you can enroll in class, update payment and personal information, make payments, and view your dancers schedule. A credit card must be left on file when registration for classes. Please note the Competition class requires an evaluation to join.

Classes are based on (4) week months. There is no additional charge for 5 week months. Consequently, there are no deductions for holidays, missed classes or partial month payments. Tuition is charged to the card on file on the 1st of the month. All tuition payments are NON-REFUNDABLE & NON-TRANSFERABLE.

If a payment does not go through for any reason, the charge will be attempted again the following day. It is the parent/guardian’s responsibility to keep billing information up to date in their online customer account. If temporarily unable to use a credit card, cash or check payment must be brought to the studio. If tuition is not paid by the 5th of the month, a $20 late fee will be applied to the balance. Students from families whose accounts are 10 business days past due will not be eligible to attend class and may loose the spot in the class or competitive team. Returned checks are subject to a $45 insufficient funds fee as well as unsuccessful Autopay.

If a student needs to withdraw for any reason, parent needs to give written notice PRIOR to the next billing cycle. Once tuition payment is processed, it is Non-refundable. We have 3 Dance Seasons Winter/Spring, Fall, and Summer even when season ends it is not assumed that you are withdrawing.  

The primary method of studio communication is e-mail. Please be sure to keep a valid/frequently used email on file, and check for emails from Level Up Dance Center containing important information, updates and deadlines. Give studio 24-36 hours to respond.

Dress code for each class is to be adhered to for all students. Please refer to our dress code policy for specific requirements for each class. A student may be asked to sit out of class, conditioning or asked to leave class if not in the proper attire. Refunds will not be given for missed class due to improper dress.

Students must attend class regularly, as it is imperative to the progress of both the individual student and the class as a whole. Missing class puts your child behind and it slows down the learning progress for the rest of the class when trying to catch your child up. If your child must miss class for any reason, please notify the studio prior to the class, so that the instructor can plan accordingly. This is particularly important when preparing for performance or competition. Students with excessive absences may be required to take private lessons( at additional cost) to catch up on material missed and to remain in the class.

Arriving on time is crucial to the learning environment and safety of dancers. Being tardy is disrespectful to the teacher, it disrupts the class, and can be harmful if a dancer misses the proper warm up. If a dancer arrives late and misses the warm up, it is up to the teachers discretion to let the dancer participate or sit out. Non- participation due to tardiness will not result in refunded tuition. Please call the studio if your dancer will be tardy so proper arrangements can be made.

All class times/days are subject to change particularly if there is low enrollment classes may be canceled or combined.

We offer 2 performances each season, "The Cracked Nutcracker," during the holidays and our spring end of season recital. The fee to be in The Nutcracker is $90 per dancer which covers the costume rental, helps with the venue costs and includes a cast t shirt.

The Spring recital fee is $75 per dancer which helps with the venue. 

Costumes for the recital must be purchased for each class. Costume fees will be posted in January of each year.
