COMMITMENT & ATTENDANCE

Teamwork makes the dream work! We ask all students to commit to the full program.
πŸ“’ If you need to miss a class, please inform your instructor.
❌ More than three absences (over 25% of the program) means a student may not be able to perform at the final showcase. Learning choreography together helps build a strong, supportive dance community! Thank you for being part of the team.
