Absences/Makeup Classes

Attendance

Attendance is taken in each class. Consistency is key to building strong technique and successful dancers.  If you are not able to attend class, please call the front desk to inform your Instructor.  When dancers commit to taking a class, they are not only committing to being there for themselves, but they are also committing to the other dancers there, especially when we begin working on choreography for the annual Revue.  If attendance is poor, an Elements faculty member will contact you to find a more suitable class time or resolve the issue. If you miss 2 consecutive classes without notice, your spot in class may be given to another student on the wait list. 

Dancers arriving 15 minutes (or more) late will not be allowed to take class.  We understand that things happen and sometimes traffic is unavoidable, however it not only disrupts class to enter late, it is more importantly unsafe for your dancer to miss warm up and jump into the middle of class.  We recommend taking a full make-up class instead.

Class Make Up Policy - Youth Classes

You may make up missed classes, however they must be used within 30 days from the day of your missed class. It must also be made up within the same session. All makeup classes must be within your age range and the same level (or below).  If you are having trouble finding an acceptable class to attend as your make up, please feel free to ask an Elements staff member to assist you.  We do not refund or adjust tuition for any missed classes. You may take make up classes prior to the day you will be missing. Please contact the Front Desk for assistance. 

HOLIDAYS:

We do not offer Make Up Classes for Holiday closures. Our tuition is based off of a 4 week month. Tuition remains the same regardless if the month is 3 weeks or 5 weeks. We have ensured our Fall Session evens out to 4 weeks per month.
