AUTO PAY SYSTEM
All students enrolled in classes are signed up with our autopay system. When enrolling in your class, you will be prompted to enter a credit card on file that you would like to use for tuition. Your credit card on file will be automatically charged on the 1st of the month until you tell us you would like to drop. Drop requests require a 30 day written notice, via email or our drop notice on our website.
LATE FEES
A $20 late fee will be assessed if tuition is not paid by the 10th of each month.
MEMBERSHIP FEE
All students will be charged an annual Membership Fee. This fee is good for one year and is charged automatically on your enrollment "anniversary". The rate per student is $48. The rate per family is $84. The membership fee does not apply to Aerial Adventure Time, Camp, or Birthday Parties.
DROP POLICY
We require a 30 day written drop notice (email or drop form) to drop from a class.
If you wish to drop from a class, please request this via email or the drop form on our website. The drop date will be 30 days from the day you complete the drop notice. If you are unable to attend classes during your last 30 days, the unused amount will remain on your account as a credit to use towards future transactions.
MAKE-UPS/INCLEMENT WEATHER
If a student misses one of their regular classes, you can schedule a makeup class! Makeups are not guaranteed, as they are based on class availability. Please limit makeup classes to 2 per session and complete your makeup class prior to the end of the corresponding session. Please email or call 24 hours before your desired make-up class to reserve your spot.
In case of inclement weather, we will email all families about any class cancellations. We will also post closures and notifications on our website, facebook and instagram pages. There are no refunds for classes cancelled due to inclement weather, but you may schedule a makeup with the front desk staff.
REFUND POLICY
We do not offer any refunds for classes. We make exceptions for family emergencies or medical reasons.
ARRIVAL AND PICKUP
Be sure your student arrives 5 minutes before their scheduled class time. Please pick up your student on time. Please inform us if you know you will be late picking up your student. Instruct your student to wait inside the building and you should escort them from the building to your car. During peak times the parking lot is crowded. Please take into consideration that our students may include young children. Please drive slowly and carefully. Do not take a chance on your student running to and from your car.
SIBLINGS
You are responsible for watching siblings of students that are in class. We ask that you please do not allow your children to play outside the studio unattended.
“NO OBLIGATION” TRIAL CLASSES
We offer a “no obligation” trial for most beginner level classes. If you end up not liking the class, then you do not have to pay for it. If you do like the class and would like to enroll in the class after the trial, then the cost of the trial class will be included in your first monthly tuition payment.
DROP IN CLASSES
We allow drop-ins for professional dancers and experienced aerialists in Level 2 & up classes only.
CLASS POLICIES
Only students are allowed in the studio space for classes. All parents and siblings must remain in the viewing room or in the downstairs lobby during the class time.
Students must wait in the viewing room and will be called in by their instructor when class is beginning. Students are not allowed to enter the studio space/gym if they are early to class.
All students will need to create an account on our iclass registration system and accept the studio policies and waiver form prior to the start of class to be able to participate.
Please wash your hands before class time, and if needed, your feet too to keep the equipment clean.
Please maintain your personal hygiene. Aerial Arts is a very close contact art form and maintaining good personal hygiene is essential in a positive work environment and courteous to other classmates.
No flash photography during class time is allowed. Photos without flash is acceptable.
