Our vision at dancing plus is to be the premier dance studio in the South Kansas City area by providing the highest quality instruction in a safe, nurturing environment where students can reach their full potential as dancers. Our goal is for our students to become well-rounded dancers with strong technical training to give them a foundation to pursue any potential career in dance; and the foundation for learning discipline, commitment, integrity, organization, responsibility and dedication in not just dance...but in all aspects of life.

 

Inclement Weather:

 

Dancing Plus will follow the Inclement Weather Policy of the Ray-Pec School District. If Raymore Public Schools are closed due to inclement weather, Dancing Plus will also be closed.  Students are always welcome to attend a make-up class. Please check with the front desk for the best day and time for your student to attend  make-up class.

 

Health and Wellness:

 

We follow the guidelines and policies regarding health and attendance of the Ray-Pec School District. It is important that the students and staff at Dancing Plus be in a healthy environment and that we all work together to stop the spread of illness as best we can. For our part, we encourage the children and staff to use goodhand-washing and/or sanitizing practices, we clean and disinfect the studio, and particularly the tumbling mats, on a regular basis, and we use substitutes whenever teachers or staff are ill. We ask that the following guidelines befollowed by both the students attending classes at Dancing Plus, and by those parents, care-givers, and siblings etc., who will be spending time in theDancing Plus Lobby.

SOLO & DUET POLICIES

 

Please carefully review the following information regarding the studio's solo and duet payment terms, cancellation policy and performance details. 

 

 

(1) Tuitionfor Solos/Duets is due the 1st of each month for that entire month. There is a 10 day grace period for tuition.  Payments made AFTER the 10th of the month will incur a $10 late fee.

 

 (2) Vocal Students will be given ONE cd with vocal and instrumentals per session (1 Holiday show & 1 Spring Show).  Any replacement cd’s needed will be charged $3.00 per cd.  All students are required to bring their vocal CD and sheet music /lyrics to each lesson.

 

(3) Piano Students are required to bring their lesson books to each lesson.  All piano books are purchased through and paid to the piano teacher, Victoria Wills. Students are given ONE copy of their performance sheet music per session (1 Holiday Show & 1 Spring Show).  Any replacement copies will be charged $2.00 per song.

 

(4) Please remember that ALL solos and duets can only be rescheduled if they are cancelled at least 24 hours in advance. If 24 hours notice is not given, full payment is required and no make-up will be scheduled. If the studio is closed due to weather, or a teacher must cancel, a make-up time will be scheduled to fit both the student and the teacher's schedules.  We are happy to work with you to find a time to reschedule solos and duets if notice is given 24 hours or more inadvance. While we  understand that sickness and/or unforeseen circumstances sometimes arise quickly, notice is necessary for us to have an opportunity to adjust the teachers' schedule.  

 

THANK YOU for giving us the opportunity to work with your kids one-on-one. The focused time is invaluable to your dancers and we really enjoy it as well. We really think focusing on following the cancellation policy will be very beneficial to the performers and also allow the studio to continue to offer the opportunity solos and duets provide.
