Rescheduling.

You agree to pay the booking fee for any no-show at the time of your next lesson, cancellation or rescheduling when done after the 24 hour deadline to your lesson.

Packages: Blocked packages do have expiration dates. Packages are nonrefundable upon your first lesson. Pricing on all packages are good for one or two people. Pricing for three or more people are sold at a different rate. Please see website for pricing for semi private rates. Silver and Gold packages require a commitment and payment agreement before starting to qualify for the highest discounts.

 

Booking Lessons: Students may not assume that they have the same booking day/time from week to week. Lessons are booked on a first come, first serve basis. Unless you have specifically booked your lesson on a particular date, time and location with your instructor, the appointment time will be considered available to be booked to another party.

 

Choreography: Wedding, Show dance or Competitive: All lessons in any and all choreography will need to bring in chosen music on your personal phone. Pricing is for one or two people. Multiple people would be sold at the semi-private pricing.

 

Payment: Payment may be made either online or by a personal check, made out to Lori Gonzales or exact cash. Payment in full must be received in person on the day of the first lesson. Credit cards cannot be processed on the studio site. Requests for a credit card payment link must be made earlier than 48 hours before the first lesson.

Tardy/Early Departure Policy: Those who are tardy to their private lesson will finish their lesson at the previously agreed time. This is to avoid the people who are scheduled after you starting late and a courtesy to your instructor.

Likewise, if you are to depart early from your lesson, that time will be considered lost.
