Students must arrive 5-10 minutes before class to allow time to use the bathroom,  dress, remove jewelry and neatly put hair back. All students must be ready to  dance at the start of each class. Makeups for missed classes are offered when  possible and handled on an individual basis. All students must be picked up  within 10 minutes of the end of class.

Dancers will receive breaks as determined by the instructor. Please bring water bottles  to class to eliminate the extra time in the lobby to maximize class time.

1. Be respectful and encouraging of every dancer. 

2. Students must be dressed to move for class.

Your monthly class tuition is due the first week of each month. We will offer an automatic payment option available online that will be e-mailed to you the first day of classes. You will also have the option to continue to pay by check.

If your balance is not paid in full by the 15th of that month a $10.00 late fee will be added to your account. Please talk to me if you need to make other arrangements for your payments. The great North provides us with unavoidable snow days. If the Iron Mountain AND/OR Kingsford Schools are cancelled due to bad weather NMDA will be closed. Additional classes will be offered in the event of snow days.

If the weather becomes severe later in the day, I will send an e-mail or notify you through the Remind app that we will utilize this season. The weather can be a greater factor for you if you are traveling from surrounding areas. If the weather is too dangerous only in your area you are encouraged to stay at home and make up your classes at a later date. If you must miss classes for personal reasons, i.e., vacation, illness, sports activities, etc., you are responsible for making up these classes (missed classes are not deducted from your lesson fees).

Contact me if your student has a prolonged illness or injury so that I may adjust your account.
