How classes work
Sessions & enrollment
Our season runs in sessions. Fall classes run September through December, spring classes run January through May, and summer classes run June and July. Fall enrollment automatically continues into spring unless you ask to drop the class.
Toddler & Tots classes run in three sessions a year, and dancers can join at any time. Preschool and recreational classes have open registration periods, and our curriculum is designed so new dancers can join during those windows. You only pay for the classes you attend.
