RULES & REGULATIONS
DRESS CODE
For most classes, we have a simple, straight forward dress code. Please wear clothes you feel comfortable in and can move around in. This means something you can wear to the gym or to work out in. Examples are T shirts, leggings, yoga pants, sweatpants, tank tops. Please do not wear jeans, dresses, blouses, dressy shirts, or school pants of any kind. Please also wear the correct footwear to class. This means a type of dance shoe approved by your teacher, and eventually Revolution Brand which is ordered through the Studio. NO socks or stocking feet. If your hair is to your shoulders or longer, it must be in a ponytail or bun.
COMPETITION TEAMS & COMP TECHNIQUE I & II
All Black Dance Attire must be worn all year for Technique Classes and from January to April for Team Classes.
BALLET AND ACRO CLASSES
Must wear a leotard with any dance bottoms.
BALLET II AND BALLET III
Must wear a black leotard and black dance bottoms all year.
FOOTWEAR
Shoes for our classes must be purchased through Levels. We only sell Professional Revolution Brand Shoes for proper dance training and safety. Revolution Dancewear only partners with dance studios, so you are not able to purchase elsewhere.
**Your child's shoes must be ordered online through our Levels Dance Studio Online Store
ATTENDANCE
Attendance will be taken in the beginning of each class. If your child is going to miss class, you should notify the teacher ahead of time or text/call/e-mail the studio. You can make up a class that is missed by asking your teacher another day and time you may come. Making up a class prior to your child missing the class is not allowed. If you are going to withdrawal from a class or classes, please notify the studio by email, message, or phone call. If your costume is already ordered, the cost will not be refunded. You must notify the studio within at least 7 days of the next month's tuition due date or Autopay will go through.
CHILD PICK UP/DROP OFF
All parents/guardians must pick-up and drop-off your child in the waiting area. The parking lot can be dangerous and children age 10 and under will not be allowed to walk to your car by themselves. Please do not park and wait for your dancers if they are age 10 & under. Please walk in the studio to pick up your child at the time class is dismissed.
INCLEMENT WEATHER
When the studio closes for inclement weather, there will be make up classes scheduled by Levels in March, April and/or May, depending on how many are needed. For notification of class cancellations due to weather, emergency, etc., please check either the website's home page,
Levels Dance Studio Facebook Page, or
Levels Dance Studio Instagram Page to know if we’re closing or not. Notifications will be posted at least two hours prior to class time(s). You may also sign up for text message alerts. Please do so on your annual registration form. We kindly ask that you please do not send texts, comments, or Facebook messages asking if we will be closed or not. Please wait for our texts and postings.
STUDENT LOUNGE
Children age 6 & under and Parents/Guardians ARE NOT PERMITTED IN THE STUDENT LOUNGE. All competition Students and recreational students that are age 7 & up AND IN MORE THAN ONE CLASS are allowed to wait in the student lounge in-between classes. Students that use the lounge must be able to occupy themselves in a quiet and polite manner. HONESTY POLICY with snacks and refreshments must be used. There is a box to collect money and there are usually teachers & assistants who will check on students in the lounge to make sure the honesty policy is being used. ANY LOUDNESS OR FOOLING AROUND IS NOT ALLOWED and any dancers who cannot control themselves will lose their student lounge privileges. IT IS NOT A PLAYROOM. Simply a waiting room for those old enough and in many classes. There IS NOT always a teacher in the student lounge so dancers will NOT be supervised at all times and must be mature enough to behave on their own. Please use your own judgement.
