Arabesque Dance Studio Newsletter
August/September
Welcome back!
We just wrapped up such an incredible year that we cannot wait to get started on our 2022-2023 Season.
As you will notice, we are doing some things a little different this year and we are excited to do so. We hope that these small changes help us stay more organized and timely, which will in turn, give us more time to focus on our beautiful dancers.
We will have a Parent Meeting on September 1st to discuss our 2022-2023 Contract, Teams, and Team Fundraising. This is MANDATORY. If you are unable to make it, please let us know ASAP. Signed contracts are due on September 6th, the first day of our Fall Session.
A few changes that we are implementing for next season is the Costume Deposit, Auto-Debit, and Unlimited Class Add On. A $100 Costume Deposit per group routine is due on September 19th. If costumes cost more than $100, the remaining balance will be added to your account. If the costumes do not exceed $100, the remaining amount will be added as a credit to your account.
For Auto-Debit, we are requiring that a credit card remain on file at all times. We will be charging the card on the 10th of each month. If you would like to pay by cash, check or a different credit card, that payment can be made between the 1st and the 9th of each month. Any studio purchases (shoes, tights, apparel, etc) will be charged to your card at the time of purchase. Competition fees not paid within 30 days of that competition will be charged to the card on file. No exceptions.
We are excited to offer an Unlimited Class Add-On rate of $65/month (based on 4 weeks) on top of the two mandatory class requirement costs. This Unlimited option will only be available to families with a balance of $0 on their accounts at the beginning of the month. This package includes: All Technical Skills Classes, All Ballet Classes (that dancer is qualified for), Conditioning, Acro, Turns & Leaps, and Tap.
We will also be updating our new website regularly with all of the information you will need. While we are happy to answer questions, please refer to our website and Facebook page to find the answers before messaging us.
