-Policies-

By registering with Dance Tech Inc., I acknowledge that I have read, understand, and agree to abide by all Dance Tech Inc. policies and procedures. I understand that participation in dance and related activities involves inherent risks of injury and property loss, and I voluntarily assume those risks on behalf of myself and/or my child.

I further acknowledge and agree to the following:

3. I understand that Showcase tickets must be purchased separately to attend the performance.
4. I understand that registration fees, September tuition payments, costume deposits, examination fees, competition fees, and showcase tickets are non-refundable.

Current attire requirements are available on the Dance Tech Inc. website.
8. Accounts must remain in good standing in order for dancers to participate in examinations, competitions, performances, and other studio events, and to register for future programs.
9. Dance Tech Inc. reserves the right to amend policies, schedules, class offerings, instructors, and program requirements when necessary. Families will be notified of significant changes.
