TUITION POLICIES
-
Tuition is calculated based on the full dance season, accounting for holidays and snow days, and divided into 9.5 equal payments. Siblings enrolled at Fusion receive a 10% discount off the second child's tuition of equal or lesser value. The discount is only given to siblings and cannot be extended to more distant family relationships.
โ
-
Payment responsibility is that of the family. Each account at Fusion Dance Centre will be under ONE parent or guardian’s name, and it is the responsibility of that parent or guardian to keep payments up to date. There are no exceptions to this policy. All payment issues between families should be organized outside of Fusion Dance Centre. There are no partial payments accepted in the event a dancer’s tuition is being funded by more than one party. Please make arrangements prior to the season as to how your dancer’s account will be handled.
โ
-
All financial obligations carried over for more than three months will be handed over to a collections agency and your dancer will be unable to participate in class. All payments, including registration fees, tuition, costumes, and Performance Program installments, are non-refundable. In the event a check is returned, a NSF fee of $20 will be charged. After two returned checks, only cash payments will be accepted.

REGISTRATION FAQ
WHAT IF MY DANCER IS YOUNGER THAN THE AGE FOR THE CLASS?
Dancers must fall within the posted ages of the class by October 1st. For the safety and enjoyment of your dancer, we cannot make exceptions.
HOW DO I REGISTER MY DANCER FOR CLASSES?
Call us at (908) 620 - 1000 or email us at office@fdc.dance to inquire about the availability of classes, or register online here.
IS THERE A REGISTRATION FEE? WHAT DO I NEED TO REGISTER?
Yes. There is a yearly registration fee of $30 per student, or $50 for a family. Upon registering at Fusion Dance Centre, we ask for the registration fee as well as first & last months tuition.
WHAT IS YOUR LATENESS AND ATTENDANCE POLICY?
Life is unpredictable and we are sympathetic to the occasional late arrival. However, the beginning of each class contains a crucial warm up period that prepares the body for high levels of activity. To prevent injuries from developing, please try to arrive on time for class each week.
If your dancer must miss a class for any reason, please call the studio to notify the instructor. Makeup classes are available to all students, as refunds will not be issued for any missed classes.
At the teacher’s discretion, students with excessive absences may be required to take a private lesson
WHAT IS YOUR WITHDRAWL POLICY?
If a dancer chooses to withdraw from a class, the office must be notified by filling out a withdrawal form by the 1st of the month, or you will still be charged for that month’s tuition. Tuition is non-refundable.
IS THERE A DRESS CODE AND SHOE REQUIREMENT?
Yes. Fusion Dance Centre's 2022-2023 dress code and shoe requirements will be released soon.
DO YOU HAVE A RECITAL?
Yes! Our annual Recital is held locally in late Spring. All classes ages 2 and up* will perform.
โ
Recital is optional but encouraged, and most kids do participate. The cost of dancer's costumes and audience tickets are not included in tuition costs. More information about costumes and Recital will be sent out in the Fall.
โ
*Parent & Me, Adult classes, and workshops do not perform at our Spring Recital.
WHAT DO THE CLASS RECITAL ASSIGNMENTS ON YOUR SCHEDULE INDICATE?
All classes that have the same 'Recital Assignment' label will be performing in the same show during our annual Recital. Families with multiple dancers or dancers in multiple classes are able to select classes in the same show, reducing the number of tickets needed and increasing seat availability.
