The 2011-2012 dance season consists of two seventeen week sessions.  It is important to remember that a dance education is a continual process.  The system of sessions is solely for billing purposes.  The design of the curriculum at Feet First is that of a continual, progressive program of study.

Tuition is payable per semester in one single payment prior to the first lesson either at the Open House or over the summer through the mail.  There is a payment plan option available please ask for details.  Second semester tuition invoices will be mailed to students in December.  Tuition is non-refundable.  No deductions will be made for classes missed.  Make-up classes are available.  A $10.00 late fee is charged for any delayed tuition payments.  A $15.00 fee is charged for returned checks.  Make all checks payable to Feet First.

A performance costume deposit of $40.00 per class is payable with the first semester tuition.  The costume deposit will be refunded if the student does not continue with lessons into the second semester.  The costume fee is not refundable after January 15, 2012. When the costume fee exceeds $40.00 the student will be responsible for the balance.  The faculty makes every effort to keep costume cost as close to $40.00 as possible.  Please be aware that there are other optional performance related expenses, including photographs, DVD and tickets.  Families with three or more students should inquire about a tuition break.

All students must fill out a registration form with tuition payment.  A $30.00 annual registration fee per family is required at the time of registration.  The registration fee is waived if all fees for the first semester are paid in full by July 15, 2011.

Please note: No student will be permitted to participate in the annual performance in May if there is an outstanding tuition or costume balance.
