For recital classes, students are required to attend class the week of a performance in order to participate. Students are required to attend class the month of recital.

Instructors will keep track of attendance and tardies, and you will be able to keep track of this in the parent portal. If the instructor notices a student is struggling or falling behind due to poor attendance, the instructor will make note of this in the parent portal.

We believe that proper attendance is necessary for a quality dance education. Dance technique needs to become muscle memory, and that only happens through consistency in weekly training.

When it comes to performing with a group, dance is a team sport. If dancers are missing from rehearsal, it is difficult for the rest of the class to properly practice their choreography. We ask that all of our dance students make the choice to be dedicated teammates, both to better themselves, and to help their classmates.

We believe prompt attendance is very important to a dancer's training. Consistency is key for proper technique to be learned, committed to memory, and become a part of the body. On weeks where a dancer is running late, we ask that they enter the studio discreetly, put their things away, and join the class. The teacher will let them know if they need to do anything extra to warm up.

We have two lobbies. One is right next to the main receptionist desk near studio 1. The other is through the glass doors outside of studio 2. We have a camera monitor system in both lobbies to watch classes. Students are welcome to do homework, eat a snack, and relax before classes in the lobbies.

Parents should wait in the lobby, or are free to drop off and pick up at the end of class. Parents are expected to keep our lobbies clean, family-friendly, and quiet to respect the classes going on. We do have an outdoor picnic table area where younger siblings can play, and we ask that parents do not allow siblings to run and be loud in the studio during classes.

Parents must pick up their child promptly at the end of class time.

We are pleased to offer the luxury of video observation to our parents! All studios are monitored with a camera system, which feeds to a tv screen in one of the waiting rooms. Parents must remain in the waiting area, and are not allowed inside the classroom.

Classes can be viewed on the screen on rotation, and may not be available every single week.

Students are only allowed to bring WATER into the studios. No sodas, coffees, energy drinks, or anything otherwise sticky when spilled. Dancers may bring a snack in their bag to eat between classes. Parents, dancers, and family members are expected to clean up after themselves and help us maintain the cleanliness of our studio!

Our tiny tot and mini classes are based on age. Our age cut off is December 1.

Tiny Tot - 3-4 year olds

Minis - 5-6 year olds

Level 1 and up classes begin at age 7 and are based on experience, maturity, and pre-requisite skills

The studio owner will have final say on level placements. It is important to remember that levels in dance are made to be repeated. It is important that dancers master technique before advancing to a higher level. This is for safety, and the quality of their dance education. We ask that parents respect the professional opinion of our staff.

There will be various community performance opportunities throughout the season. Our big show is at the end of May! All dancers in a performance class will receive a costume and learn a dance to perform in our Spring Production!
Students must follow our attendance policies and have a current paid account in order to participate.

Our Studio Owner will make the decision to cancel classes by 12pm the day of if classes will be cancelled due to inclement weather. Please understand these decisions are made for the safety of students AND staff. There will not be makeup days for weather closings. We will announce closings via email, social media, and robo call or robo text.

We do not pro-rate tuition for any reason. Tuition is calculated based on the amount of classes offered in a season, over 10 months time, and broken up into monthly installments. Our instructors must be paid for class regardless of if your child is present or absent.

At Legacy Performing Arts, we go beyond simply teaching dance steps — we are committed to shaping the whole person. Our classes focus not only on technique and performance, but also on building socio-emotional skills that help students grow as confident, compassionate, and resilient individuals. We aim to inspire performers, leaders, and community members who will leave a positive legacy wherever life takes them.

1. Core Values & Studio Expectations

Our values guide everything we do — in the classroom, on the stage, and in the community:

• Respect – Show kindness and courtesy to teachers, classmates, parents, and staff.

• Inclusivity – Be welcoming and kind to everyone. Greet others, use polite language, and include classmates so everyone feels part of the group.

• Punctuality – Value everyone’s time by arriving early, ready to learn and participate.

• Active Listening – Focus fully on instruction, staying present and engaged.

• Self-Discipline – Practice responsibility for actions, words, and energy to create a positive classroom atmosphere.

• Professionalism – Approach classes, rehearsals, and performances with maturity, preparation, and commitment.

• Positive Attitude – Embrace challenges, encourage others, and celebrate successes — big and small.

• Legacy Mindset – Strive to leave a lasting positive impact on peers, the studio, and the broader community.

2. Classroom Etiquette for Dancers

Arrival & Preparation

• Arrive 5–10 minutes early to stretch, change, and prepare for class.

• Enter quietly if class has begun; wait for an appropriate break to join.

• Come with hair secured, proper attire, and required shoes.

During Class

• Keep phones silenced and stored away — no texting or social media during class.

• Pay attention to the teacher, avoid side conversations, and respect others’ personal space.

• If unsure about choreography, stand toward the back and observe until confident.

• Use transitions efficiently — move quickly to new spots, keep class momentum positive.

Water Breaks

• Get water quietly and return straight to your spot on the dance floor.

• Use breaks to reset, not to socialize or distract others.

Corrections & Feedback

• Accept corrections with maturity and gratitude (“thank you”), then apply them immediately.

• Avoid excuses, eye rolling, or negative reactions.

Leaving Class

• Ask permission before leaving for any reason.

• If leaving early, inform the teacher before class begins and exit discreetly.

Personal Space & Safety

• Keep belongings neatly in a dance bag and off the studio floor.

• No gum, food, or non-water drinks in the studio.

• Never touch mirrors or equipment unnecessarily — this is a safety issue.

• Keep toddlers and siblings under control in waiting areas; if they become disruptive, take them outside to play or calm down.

Attire & Grooming

• Dress Code: Wear fitted, appropriate attire for each class style.

• Hair: Pulled back neatly off the face and neck.

• Shoes: Correct footwear for each style; no street shoes on dance floors.

• Jewelry: Remove dangling or noisy pieces for safety.

• Hygiene: Clean dancewear, good grooming, minimal fragrances or lotions (they make floors slippery).

3. Behavior Standards

• Arrive on time and prepared

• Listen attentively

4. Parent & Family Guidelines

• Drop-Off & Pick-Up: Be punctual for all class times.

• Observation: Follow studio policies — some classes are closed to help dancers stay focused.

• Lobby Etiquette: Waiting areas are for quiet study, snacks, or stretching. Avoid hovering outside studio doors. Clean up spills promptly. Keep siblings supervised and under control; take them outside if they become loud or disruptive.

• Communication: Direct questions to the Administrative Director. Schedule conferences rather than stopping teachers between classes.

• Partnership: Encourage practice at home, model respectful behavior, and support all dancers at recitals — not just your own child.

• Boundaries: Leave teaching to the instructors; enjoy watching your dancer grow without intervening during class.

• Safety & Respect: Any aggressive, threatening, or yelling behavior toward staff or students will result in being asked to leave the premises immediately to ensure the safety of everyone present.

5. Performance & Rehearsal Expectations

Our end-of-year show is a highlight of the season and an opportunity for dancers to shine.

• Rehearsal schedules are released in advance — attendance is mandatory.

• Missing rehearsals can result in removal from parts of a routine to preserve spacing and choreography.

• Dancers must stay for the entire scheduled rehearsal time.

6. Social Media & Online Conduct

• Posts must reflect respect for classmates, staff, and families.

• Do not share private studio information, choreography, or costume designs online.

• Avoid posting complaints, gossip, or negative comments — bring concerns directly to the owner.

7. Discipline & Intervention Process

We believe in teaching dancers accountability and giving multiple chances to correct behavior.

1. Warning & Redirection – Teacher provides verbal reminder and chance to adjust behavior.

2. Temporary Removal – Student may sit out for part of class or wait in the hallway.

3. Parent Contact – If disruption continues, parent is called for early pick-up.

4. Parent/Teacher Conference – To discuss behavior and set goals for improvement.

5. Director Meeting – If behavior persists, a formal meeting is scheduled with the Director.

6. Suspension/Dismissal – As a last resort, the dancer may be suspended or removed from the program.

8. Why Etiquette Matters

Following studio etiquette develops life skills that go beyond dance:

• Discipline & Self-Control – Learning to manage time, behavior, and effort.

• Respect & Empathy – Building understanding and compassion for others.

• Responsibility & Accountability – Owning choices and growth.

• Leadership & Teamwork – Contributing positively to the group.

• Professionalism – Preparing students for auditions, performances, and future careers.

Together, we create a safe, inspiring community where every dancer can succeed.
