Dance Terms

To help, three smaller payments can be made throughout the year, as opposed to one large payment in September.

 

There are 32 weeks of dance instruction during the 2025-26 dance season. Two of these classes will be free of charge, which allows us to cancel two classes due to inclement weather or illness. You will pay for 30 weeks of instruction, with the year divided into three financial terms:

 

Term 1: September 15, 2025 to November 24, 2025

Term 2: November 24, 2025 to February 16, 2026

Term 3: February 16, 2026 to May 11, 2026

​

Exams

For students completing ballet exams, there is an additional training period.

Term 4: May 11, 2026 to June 17, 2026

Costume Fee

Each child will receive costumes to wear in our Spring Showcase, held in May. We love recycling costumes and are always brainstorming ways to keep this costume fee to a minimum (and avoid a pile up of tutus in your closets). One costume can meet the needs of many dances, by switching accessories, hairpieces and gems. Expect to pay for one costume that costs between $70 and $80.  We will do the rest! Costume fees

will be due in March, 2026.
