Policies and Performances

Policies:  

-Parents are allowed in the classroom one time per semester.  Dancers learn best in an environment free of distraction.  We appreciate your interest and enthusiasm in your child's dance, however please appreciate the instructor's job trying to maintain a disturbance free classroom where children are focused and kept on task. -No food or drink (other than bottled water). -As with any activity, dancers need to develop commitment to--and teamwork with their fellow dancers.  This comes from attendance at class and performances.   -Lake Dance Steps is not responsible for dancers outside of the classroom.  Please arrive on time to pick up your dancer and do not leave them unattended at the facility before or after class.  -Dancers/parents/children will not be permitted to use any area in the gym other than the restroom and dance rooms.  Please keep dancers/children out of workout areas and away from equipment.  No running, and please respect the members of the gym and facility.  -A small waiting area is provided at the bottom of the stairs of the upper studio.    -Performance participation is mandatory unless the dancer is severely ill.  Please plan vacations, etc. around performance dates.  An absent dancer means making last minute choreography changes and isn't fair to other dancers who have been working months to prepare.  A $50/hr fee may be charged to make changes to choreography if your dancer is missing.
