Studio Policies

What to know before you enroll

These guidelines cover everything from registration and tuition to attendance, make-ups and performances. Questions? Call us at 540-750-0098 — we're happy to help.

  • Registration

    All registrations are completed online. A non-refundable, non-transferable registration fee is required for new and returning students at the time of enrollment.

    • Registration is online only.
    • The registration fee is non-refundable and non-transferable.
    • Enrollment is confirmed only after the registration fee and first tuition payment are received.

  • Tuition & Payments

    The first month's tuition is due at registration. Monthly tuition is based on weekly class hours and processed through our automatic-debit system.

    • Payments are due on the 1st of each month; auto-draft processes on the 1st.
    • The deadline for manual payment is the 30th.
    • A $35 fee applies to declined (NSF) payments.
    • Late fees of $20 are assessed on the 7th and again on the 14th of the active month.
    • Non-payment may lead to suspension from class.

  • Attendance

    Consistent attendance is key to progress. Dancers should arrive on time, ready to work, and participate fully.

    • Excessive absences may affect eligibility to perform in the End-of-Year Recital.
    • No tuition refunds, prorations or credits are given for missed classes, unless the class is cancelled by MMCA.

  • Withdrawal

    To withdraw a student, parents submit written notice 30 days in advance through the Jackrabbit (JR) Parent Portal.

    • A 30-day written notice is required via the JR Parent Portal.
    • All fees incurred during the withdrawal period are the parent's responsibility.
    • Accounts must be settled at the time of withdrawal.

  • Make-Up Classes & Inclement Weather

    If a class is missed — due to weather or any other reason — a make-up may be scheduled within a limited window.

    • You have 2 weeks to make up a missed class.
    • Make-ups may be done in any class of the same level or below, if space is available.
    • Limit of 3 make-up classes per season.
    • Classes not made up within the 2-week window are forfeited and not eligible for a make-up.
    • No refunds or tuition adjustments are issued for missed classes.

  • Yearly Performances

    Mountain Movers dancers shine in two productions each year — non-competitive celebrations of each dancer's growth.

    • Winter Production: early December (upcoming December 2026 — schedule to be announced).
    • Spring Production: early June (2027 dates to be announced).
    • Further details for each production are shared closer to the date.

  • Studio Fundraisers

    Fundraising helps keep our recital affordable for every family.

    • Each family participates in one studio fundraiser to help offset the cost of recital fees.

Registration and withdrawals are handled through the Jackrabbit Parent Portal.

Dress code & uniform requirements

Proper dance attire minimizes distractions, supports freedom of movement, enhances focus, builds confidence and fosters a sense of unity among dancers — and helps instructors see alignment to teach proper technique.

By class type

  • Ballet Leotard and tights with pink ballet slippers; styles as directed by your teacher.
  • Tap Comfortable dancewear with tap shoes (style as directed by your teacher).
  • Jazz Fitted dancewear with the appropriate jazz shoes or foot undeez, or as directed by the instructor.
  • Hip Hop Comfortable athletic wear with clean, indoor-only sneakers.
  • Acro Fitted dancewear, bare feet — no buttons, zippers or loose clothing that could catch during balances and tumbling skills.
  • Magic & Creative Movers (18 months–3) Any comfortable dancewear your little one can move in, with ballet slippers. We keep it relaxed and fun for our youngest movers.

Ordering your uniform

All leotards, tights and shoes are ordered through our partner store, Nimbly, and shipped right to your home. Sizing kits are available at the studio to help find the correct fit before you order, and dancers should be in their required attire within two weeks of registration.
