Tuition Rate Changes

Dear Client. We are very thankful and appreciative of our involvement with us and how you have been a key factor in the growth and success of our school. It is a known fact that many of us small businesses, have been drastically affected by this pandemic. We implemented several changes to keep you safe while training with us, resulting in increased costs. Last year, when the pandemic started, our school responded by restructuring our set-up from a technical aspect, to program design and method of approach, while to this day adopting to changes in management policies in order to cope with increased costs in lease and insurance. Tuition income were record low and were swallowed by overhead expenses. Our school has pride itself to pioneer many activities that keep our students engaged, amused and challenged. We have and continue to provide competition platforms, performance opportunities and placement assessment to monitor ones progress. Flexibility and safety has also played major roles, not to mention the uniquely designed pedagogical approach that differs us significantly. We have been very conservative with tuition hikes since we opened in 2009. As the first aerial circus school in Orange County, spearheading educational tools while keeping prices contained and affordable has always been our priority. Moving times correspond to increase in business costs, and with the added pandemic and maintenance obligations, the only route is a price increase. Though the rate increase in our packages are currently in effect as of today, the change will not apply until you purchase your next package. We are here for you and we encourage you, our clients to reach out to us to discuss challenges expected as a direct result of this so we may mutually address solutions.
