Class Fees
Our fee structure is based on the number of hours per week that a dancer is taking classes. For the breakdown of monthly fees, please view/download our Studio Fees & Discounts document. Discounts are built into the monthly fees so that the more classes you take, the more of a discount you receive.
To calculate your fees, please add up the total number of hours your child is dancing each weekand then check the column to find your cost. Please note that most of the classes run on a 9 month cycle. Anastasia and Willy Wonka are 10 months. Sessional drama classes are 4 month sessions. Do not include SPARK Performing Arts Preschool in your weekly total.
For information on SPARK Performing Arts Preschool and their fees, please check out or SPARK page.
Fees are charged on the 1st of the month. If the 1 st falls on a weekend, fees are processed the following Monday.
