General Information about Dance Classes
For both recreational and competitive dancers, lessons are available for dancers aged 3 years to adult. In-person dance classes are offered in three semesters. Classes for primary are 30 minutes, junior classes are 45 or 50 minutes, and intermediate and senior classes are 60-minutes.
1st Semester: September to December / 2nd Semester: January to March / 3rd Semester: April to June
An optional Summer Semester runs from June to August at Centennial Hall, and offers flexible à-la-carte registration. Designed for dancers competing through the summer or those eager to maintain peak fitness, these summer sessions emphasize stamina and technique with challenging, high-intensity lessons. Fees are calculated individually to accommodate family holidays and varying schedules, ensuring students can balance training with summer plans. Private and semi-private lessons are also available for dancers seeking personalized attention (see below for more information).
Important Information About Fees for Dance Classes:
Students may attend one or two classes per week. Semester fees are adjusted accordingly at the beginning of the semester. Regular class fees are: $15 per student/class, multiplied by the number of classes scheduled per semester (no applicable taxes, at this time). All fees must be paid in full prior to the beginning of each semester. Methods of payment accepted: Cash or e-transfer.
No refunds or credits for students who miss classes during the semester. Any classes cancelled by the teacher due to inclement weather, or unforeseen circumstances, will be rescheduled before the end of the semester.
If public health measures prevent in-person classes, virtual classes may be scheduled for Junior and Senior dancers. Arrangements for primary dancers will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may include rescheduling or delaying the semester.
Private and Semi-Private Lessons
Private and semi-private lessons are optional, available upon request and only provided if recommended by the teacher. Lessons are 60-minutes long for intermediate and senior dancers, and 45-minutes long for primary and junior dancers. Cost is $40.00 for an individual lesson or $60 for a pair of dancers (attending the same lesson), pay-as-you-go, at the beginning of each lesson. Five minutes of discussion and feedback is allocated at the end of each lesson (included in the allocated lesson time) for the teacher to discuss your progress, practice homework, and the next steps in your training. Visit the Registration & Resources page for information about signing up for private or semi-private lessons.
Communication
Cancellations due to inclement weather or unexpected emergency will be posted on our private Facebook Group and in the sportsYou app.
We post updates and messages on social media as quickly as possible but sometimes decisions are made last minute and if you are relying on social media we have no control over when those posts appear in your feed. Since we are all at the mercy of the social media algorithm, the quickest and most reliable way to receive cancellation or change notifications is through the sportsYou app (please enable notifications on the app!) — sportsYou is free to create an account and free to use. Please speak with Miss Victoria for more information or assistance with signing-up.
Newsletters will be distributed periodically in our Facebook group and on sportYou, and a printed copy of newsletters will also be given to each dancer. Please email us with any questions, comments, issues, or suggestions.
