Dance Class Etiquette:

·         Dress Appropriately.  Please come prepared to dance!  Proper attire helps the dancer move and the teacher is able to provide corrections.

·         Attend Regularly.  If you have to miss please let the teacher or school know in advance.

·         Arrive on time.   For your dancer's safety please do not miss the first 15 minutes of class.  Dancers warm-up during this time.  A good warm-up prevents injuries.  If you are late please stand at the door and apologize to the teacher and ask to participate.

·         Please ask permission to leave class for any reason.

·         Parents are welcome to watch outside of the classroom.  If you need to speak with your dancer please wait for a break.  Please keep interruptions to a minimum.

·         Do your best!  Take corrections.  Teachers love students who try hard and remember the things they need to work on.

Thanks for dancing with us!
