We believe dance is for everyone and pride ourselves for creating an inclusive learning environment with an engaging curriculum for children. All classes are co-ed and the content taught is gender-neutral. We do not separate classes by gender. While most classes have a mix, we are not able to guarantee a minimum number of boys or girls will be enrolled in all classes.
15% discount is available for additional dancer (automatically applied).
Water bottle, smile and enthusiasm! Please pack nut-free snacks for summer camps.
Dress code helps young dancers focus in class by understanding they're going to a structured class, teaches discipline and ensures that clothing is comfortable and not a distraction during class. A proper dance attire also enables the teacher to see dancers' position and movements in order to give necessary corrections for the benefit of the dancer’s education.
Suggested options for dress code: Leggings, pants, t-shirts. Long hair must be pulled back in a ponytail or bun.
*No jeans, dresses, or skirts.To avoid an unhealthy crowding in studio spaces, we ask that parents and guardians drop their dancers off at the door. They are welcome to be in the waiting area for the duration of class. Parents and guardians will be able to watch their dancers periodically for the last 10 mins of class on observation days. Dates will be communicated via email before the session begins.
If class is cancelled, you will be notified via email and text. No refunds will be issued for cancelled classes, but make-up classes will be offered. If we are not able to find a make up date, we will absolutely make sure the refund is processed for that class.
Regular attendance is essential to your dancer’s growth and success. Please do your best not to miss classes. We know things happen! During our Fall and Winter-Spring sessions, a total of 3 class make ups are allowed for sick days, family emergencies, and being out of town. Please email us to schedule a make-up class. Summer camps are not eligible for make ups.
Please email info@rhythmrootsdance.com to schedule make up. During the winter and spring session, we do not encourage make-ups as they will be learning their recital dances and could fall behind in their class and be confused learning a dance in their make-up class.During our Fall and Winter-Spring sessions, class music and practice videos will be posted on the session page so you can access them at any time. Please check your post-registration email for details.
All participants enrolled in summer camps will perform on the last day of camp! In addition to small in-class demos (mini-recitals) throughout the year, we will host an annual dance recital at the end of the winter-spring session. This recital is catered to be a fun, positive, age-appropriate experience. The recital is not required but encouraged for all dancers...memories to last a lifetime!
The dance recital also allows dancers to fully experience performing art and the unique feeling of being on stage in front of an audience, which in turn will boost their self-confidence in everything they do. Please check the class registration details to learn more about this year's recital.Follow us on social media: @rhythmrootsdance on Instagram
