New Recreation Tuition Model for Season 69!

Core Classes - Ballet, Tap & Jazz

This season we will be rolling out a new tuition model for recreational dance families!

If your child is only doing Core Classes (Ballet, Tap, and Jazz), tuition is as follows:

1 Hour Core Class per Week:

$92 a month

Fee includes 2 costumes.

2 Hour Classes per Week

$127 a month

Fee includes 2 costumes. If an additional costume is required, please add $13.50/month for that extra costume.

3 Hour Classes per Week

$222 a month

Fee includes 2 costumes.  If additional costumes are required, please add $13.50/month for each extra costume.


Specialty Classes - Hip Hop, Lyrical, Acro

If your child is only doing Specialty Classes, tuition is as follows:

1 hour Specialty Class

$65 +$13.50/ month for costume

Example: One-hour Lyrical class per week

2 hour Specialty Class

$130 +$13.50/ month per costume

Example: One-hour Acro class and one-hour HipHop class per week
