Attendance -   Attendance is taken at each class.  Good attendance is imperative since absences and tardiness can hold back an entire class.

The studio cannot jeopardize it's responsibilities to the rest of the class for one student.  Please make every effort to have your child at every class.

If the student is going to be absent, please contact the front desk so they can inform their teacher.

Insurance - Insurance for the student is the responsibility of the parent or guardian.  Dance Fusion does not carry medical insurance for students.  All students

must understand that it is their sole responsibility to have insurance - and if an accident / injury occurs, your family personal policy is your only source for reimbursement.

 

Physicality -  Dance is an art and a very physical activity.  At times the dance instructors in the class will physically touch your child to correct their body

placement.  It is the instructor's job to physically place their bodies in the correct position so the student understands what a properly placed body feels like.

 

Parent Observation -  Parents are welcome and encouraged to observe on the first lesson of the month for each class.  We ask that during all other times that

parents and siblings stay back from the viewing windows.  A parent peeking in is often a distraction to the students as well as the instructor.
