Tuition & Fees
Regular Students
Regular students are those who enroll in a program of ongoing classes. They pay an annual $20 registration fee which guarantees placement, and may pay for the year in full or make equal monthly payments (regardless of the number of class meetings in any given month) at a savings- rather than per class fees. * discounts apply
45 minute class- $48 per month
60 minute class- $50 per month
75 & 90 minute class- $55 per month
Students who are unable to attend their regular class
for any reason may take a make-up class within two
weeks of any absence. Note: **Refunds or credits for
missed classes can not be made.
Drop-in Students
Students who wish to try a new class or drop in
occasionally may pay as they attend. *No privileges apply.
45 & 60 minute class $14.00/class
75 & 90 min class $15.00/class
Because All That Jazz is committed to excellence in training, we feel strongly that students who attend regularly make the most progress and benefit from compounded technical work . Therefore, we encourage dancers to enroll and attend as "regular students". But, attending as a drop-in student is another option.
Regular students' class positions are guaranteed for the next successive month when tuition is paid in full and attendance is regular in the current month. They receive discounts to studio-sponsored workshops, free admission to "Dance Variations" in February, and are included in the annual studio June concert, "Celebrate Dance!" held at the GPHS Performing Arts Center each year without being charged an additional "recital fee". Regardless of the number of class meetings in any given month (some months have 5 classes, some have 3 or 4), tuition remains the same Sept. through June. Tuition is due on or before the 10th of each month to avoid a $5.00 late fee.
*Refunds or credits for missed classes can not be made at any time.*
*Regular students who "skip" a month or more lose their priority placement position for any successive month and must re-enroll on a first come, first served basis equal with new students. All That Jazz can not hold spots for non-paying/non attending students."*
Drop-in Students:
A "recital fee" of $50 is charged to each drop-in student who later decides to perform in the concert with their class.
