Tuition FeesTuition is based on the total number of hours your dancer attends each week. Please refer to the tuition chart below for monthly pricing.
For example, a dancer enrolled in one 1-hour class per week pays $50.51 + GST per month.
Our tuition is based on a sliding scale, meaning the more hours your dancer is enrolled each week, the lower the cost per class. This allows families to receive greater value as they add additional classes.
Monthly tuition is calculated based on the entire dance season and divided into 10 equal monthly installments. Because tuition is spread evenly across the season, your monthly payment remains the same each month, regardless of the number of classes held. For example, months with scheduled breaks, such as December, have the same monthly tuition as months with a full class schedule.
