Payment Guidelines: Tuition rates are assessed and based on a full season of lessons, a minimum of 34 classes per season. Tuition is computed based on scheduled studio closures, factoring in possible weather/emergency closings. Tuition can be paid in full for the entire season with a 5% discount, or divided into 10 equal payments paid monthly. If you choose the 10 month tuition payment plan, then tuition is due on the first lesson of each month. Tuition is considered late on the 13th of each month and a $10.00 late fee will be charged unless prior arrangements have been made. Payments remitted on or after the 21st of the month will be assessed a $20.00 late fee. Tuition will NOT be pro-rated or adjusted due to missed classes due to illness, injury, vacations, etc. Absences can be made up in another appropriate class within 4 weeks of the absence. There are NO REFUNDS FOR TUITION, REGISTRATION FEES, PERFORMANCE FEES, COSTUME PAYMENTS, CAMPS, T’SHIRTS, ETC. If an account becomes delinquent by one month, then you’ll be asked to discontinue classes until balances are paid in full. If you choose to pay tuition in full for the season and you do NOT wish to continue lessons, an 80% refund can be obtained if a request is put in writing by September 30. All checks returned for non-sufficient funds will be assessed a $25.00 fee, no exceptions. Cash, credit/debit card, or money order payments for NSF fees must be made within five days of notification. We offer an immediate family tuition discount of 10% for 2+ children. There are no family discounts for costumes or performance fees. No student will be allowed to participate in any TND performance unless all outstanding fees are paid in full. In addition, costumes/attire and tickets will be held until the account is current. TND accepts checks, debit/credit cards, cash and money orders for payments. Parents also have the option of RECURRING BILLING (auto debit) for tuition and any other fees as they come due. To opt-in to RECURRING BILLING, just click the box on your online account page. You can opt-out of RECURRING BILLING at any time. Please visit www.akadasoftware.com to set-up this feature on your online account. Your account must be activated by Tumble ‘N Dance using the email address you provide during registration. Once activated, you can log-on 24-7 to manage your account, make payments, etc.

 

 

Registration: Tumble ‘N Dance accepts registration, as spaces are available, from the start of classes in August through early October. During the months of January & February, registration will re-open as spaces are available. We offer convenient online registration for all students, in addition to in-person enrollment. When enrolling, the registration fee and first month’s tuition are due to secure your classes. If enrolling in-person, the fees are due at that time. If enrolling online, the fees must be paid within 48 hours of enrollment or your classes will be dropped. Pro-rating/adjusting of the first month’s tuition will only be done for NEW students, based on their start date. NOTE: Registration fees are NON-REFUNDABLE and are not assessed for adult classes, mom & tot, summer camps, and dance intensives.

 

Performances: Tumble 'N Dance produces two optional performances a year; A Christmas Show in December and a Spring Recital in late May or early June. Performances are usually held at a local auditorium. The Christmas Show fees are usually due in October. Spring Recital information will go out in late December. Recital costume fees are typically due in January/early February and spring performance fees are due in early April. Below is an example of the cost breakdown of TND performances…

Christmas Show - $55.00 attire + $25.00 performance fee

Spring Recital - $85.00 per costume + $85.00 performance fee

 

Holidays, Inclement Weather, Make-Up Classes: Tumble 'N Dance's seasonal calendar closely resembles the Henry County School Systems' calendar, but not exactly. Please refer to our website under “CLOSINGS” for exact dates. Classes will not be rescheduled nor will tuition be pro-rated for these announced TND holidays. All classes’ are guaranteed to meet a minimum of 34 times per season. In the case of inclement weather and the closing of Henry County Schools, Tumble 'N Dance will NOT hold classes. In these cases, tuition will not be refunded, prorated and make-up lessons will not be scheduled. Any student who misses a lesson due to illness is eligible for a make-up lesson in another appropriate class. All make-up classes must be made-up within four weeks of the student's absence or the lesson is forfeited. All make-up classes must be pre-arranged with the Office Staff. It’s strongly recommended that parents opt-in to receiving TEXTS. TND will only send texts to notify you of emergency closings and/or time sensitive information. Please opt-in to TEXTING via your account portal at www.akadasoftware.com.

 

Illness & Injuries: Please do not send a sick or feverish child to class. If your child becomes sick or injures themselves while at Tumble 'N Dance, we'll notify you to pick them up and begin first aid as needed. Please update your personal information via your child’s online account at www.akadasoftware.com as it changes during your time of enrollment. If your child is ill or injured and cannot attend a scheduled performance, class or competition, then the fees associated with the said event will not be refunded or pro-rated.

 

Classroom Procedures & Observation Policies: We strive to promptly begin and end our classes on time. A late pick-up fee will be assessed if a student is not picked up within 10 minutes of the conclusion of their class. The fee will only be waived if prior notification is made to Tumble ‘N Dance concerning the late pick-up. Please do NOT send siblings or friends, who are not enrolled, to class with your child. No child can be left unattended at any off-site performance, rehearsal or function. To eliminate unnecessary trips to the restroom, please have your child use the restroom before class. Please inform your Lead teacher if your child has a limiting condition that may render special attention. Parents may observe class from the observation windows, wait in the waiting area, or leave and return at the conclusion of class. We request that parents do not enter a classroom while a class is in session. This can be distracting; it further contributes to children's possible separation anxiety, and prevents a teacher's ability to manage their classroom effectively. Instructors and their assistants will promptly request your help if needed. Please try to remain out of sight during class transitions, etc. to help your child remain focused on their class. Please write your child’s name in all personal belongings; especially dance shoes. Each student needs a bag for their shoes. Please only allow dance or gymnastics class supplies in dance bags; please no food, toys, etc.

 

COVID-19 & Public Health: In the event of a lock-down and/or shelter-in-place order due to COVID-19 or any other community health outbreak, TND will switch to an online instructional format. Tuition and fees will not be refunded due to these types of unforeseen and unavoidable circumstances.

 

E-Mail / Website / Social Media / Online Accounts / Photos: TND primarily dissimulates information to parents through email; therefore it’s very important that you check your email regularly. It is a parent’s responsibility to stay abreast of all TND information. If you ever have a question or concern, please see the Office Staff or send us an email. We encourage you to visit our website at www.tumblendance.net as well as “like us” on Facebook and/or “follow us” on Instagram to stay abreast of all things TND. Please don’t forget to update your personal info as it changes via your online account at www.akadasoftware.com. TND takes photos of students during classes and performances. These photos are used to celebrate our students and to promote Tumble ‘N Dance.
