Examinations through the RAD, IDTA, Acrobatic Arts Syllabus are offered to all students but are not mandatory. Those who do not wish to take part in examinations will continue to progress through the grades / levels as appropriate.
We charge for trial dance classes to ensure that we can provide the best experience for every student. The fee helps cover the costs of the facility, professional instructors, and administration. It also allows us to dedicate time and resources to ensuring that each trial class is tailored to the individual needs of the student, giving them an authentic experience of what it would be like to be part of our dance community.
By charging for trial classes, we can continue offering high-quality instruction and maintain a positive learning environment. We believe that this investment in the trial class allows us to give both the student and their family the opportunity to make an informed decision about whether our dance school is the right fit for their goals and interests.
