Each student will be responsible for purchasing a costume for each dance class that he/she is a part of (jazz, tap, and clog). Costume deposits are due at the very first lesson in September and are NON-REFUNDABLE! Deposits are $25 per class. The remaining balance is due the week of November 10th so that costumes can be ordered and received on time. Costumes are a very fun and exciting part of the dance season!

There will not be classes in the event of severe weather. We will follow Woodbury Central School's judgment and will also post cancellations on local TV stations. We do have lessons on teacher in-service days! If you are unsure if classes are cancelled, there will be a recorded message on the Studio line below in addition to local news stations. There will be makeup lessons (if needed due to weather) which will be scheduled in April.
