Auto Pay:

It is required that all our students sign up for auto pay to register for dance with our studio. Auto Pay will be initiated the 10th of each month, and depending on your form of payment, you will see it go through 1-2 business days after it's initiated. Auto pay will be used for all charges, not just tuition, including costumes, competition fees, music fees, recital media fees, etc. If you wish to choose an alternate form of payment, you need to then pay at our front desk BEFORE the 10th of each month. If you do not notify the front desk otherwise, all remaining balances will go through autopay by the 10th.
