Our Policies
Class Placement
Students belong in class levels that are best suited to their abilities and previous dance experience, not merely their age. While our beginner classes have no pre-requisite, our advanced classes do require the correct competency. ​We try to offer as many class levels for each age group as we have the capacity for.
​
We reserve the right to place dancers in different classes according to our team's collective professional opinion so that each student's abilities can be safely honed. We always keep each dancer's best interest in mind.
Dress Code
We ask everyone to adhere to the dress code and come to class prepared. For certain disciplines, students are required to wear particular matching attire. For classes that allow more freedom in dance attire, we ask students to choose modest tops and avoid wearing crop tops and shirts with low necks unless they are wearing a bodysuit beneath.
Dress code specifics are located here.
Absences
Consistent attendance is important as absences can hold back an entire class. We strongly encourage students not to miss any classes during the term. We do not provide refunds for missed classes. In the case of classes offered twice a week, students may attend the other class as a make-up class.
Class Conduct
We hold students to a high level of conduct in the studio. Respect for self, staff, and other students is a must. Consistent misbehaviour is rarely an issue but we reserve the right to ask students to leave if they cannot comply.
Class Cancellations
We reserve the right to transfer, combine or dissolve any classes due to low enrollment.
Storm Closures
For cancellations due to weather, we will notify students via email and our Facebook page. Cancellation decisions will be made by 2PM on weekdays and 7am on Saturdays. If no announcement is made, then classes will continue as scheduled.
​We will make every effort to do a make-up class for classes that are cancelled by the studio. If students are unable to attend their make-up class, they are encouraged to attend any classes within their age group and level during the following week.
For all concerns, please call 506-383-1688 during regular office hours or send us an email or a private Facebook message.

Drop-In Class Refund Policy

Camp Tuition Refund Policy
No refunds are available.
Punctuality
Punctuality is a show of respect. It is very important not to be late. Dance Creation opens 10 minutes before the first class of the day. Ideally, students arrive dressed with hair back at least 10 minutes prior to their scheduled class time. Attendance will be taken at the start of each class. Students under the age of 8 should not be dropped off and left unattended for more than 10 minutes before class.
