• For safety reasons and for learning purposes, parents must remain outside for the duration of the class. Most kids tend to act differently when parents or guardians are around. Parents must communicate this information with the child's guardian (grandparent, sibling, etc).

• DROP-OFF & PICKUP - Parents may stay the first 5 minutes of class, and may come in for the last 5 minutes if invited by the instructor.

• Bring a reusable water bottle labeled with your child’s name. 

• Label all of children’s clothing.

• PAYMENTS - If payment has not been received and student does not show up on the first day of class without informing the studio of reason for absence or intent to continue, we will offer student’s spot to the next person on the waitlist. 

• PARKING - Street parking is FREE after 6pm

• TRIALS - Trials may be scheduled during the beginning of the session, IF there is space in a class AND the instructor is OK with it. A trial is $27, and MUST be scheduled via email to info@getdowndancestudios.com.

• DROP-INS - We typically do not offer drop-ins as our classes are progressive. Our classes fill up quickly with many on the Waitlist. To ensure we provide the most optimal experience for all, please email info@getdowndancestudios.com to see if a drop-in can be scheduled. Drop-ins are $27/class.

• ABSENCES - There are no refunds, exchanges, or credits for missed classes.

  • Parents must notify The Get Down prior to the class meeting time if a child is absent from class.

• ILLNESS - If there are any doubts about your child’s health (unusually tired, not hungry, etc.) please keep your child at home to prevent the spread of the illness. If your child has a fever of 99.9° or higher, he/she must stay at home for 24 hours after the fever has returned to 98.6° without any fever reducing medication.

• PERFORMANCES - We schedule one showcase for the Fall session and one for the Spring session. The showcase is usually after the last day of the session, but specific dates, location and tickets will be determined at a later time. 

  • There may be other opportunities to perform at local community centers, events and festivals. 

• CANCELLATION - If there is a need to cancel enrollment, we ask for at least a 2 week notice before the start of the new session. We can provide a refund, but will retain either the registration fee or $35 to cover our administrative costs. If they have already started a session, please notify us right away of intent to leave. We would finish the billing for that current month and then cancel the rest of the session.

• COMMUNICATIONS - The Get Down sends communication solely through email and in-person. Please ensure that email address and contact information are up to date and is checked regularly.

• Comfortable clothes that you can freely dance in! 

• Sneakers that are secure on the foot. No flip flops.

• If wearing a dress or skirt, wear shorts underneath. 

• Please make sure all clothing is labeled.
