2025/2026 FULL-SEASON TUITION AND COSTUME FEES:

The Impulse dance season runs from the 2nd week of September 2025 to the 2nd week of June 2026. When registering, you agree to commit to the full dance season and year-end recital performance in June 2026. If you join mid-season, your tuition will be appropriately pro-rated from start date. If you wish to cancel registration, you will provide written notification 14-days BEFORE the start of the next month.
2025/2026 full season dance tuition can be paid in full up front, or broken into 10-equal installments due the 1st of each month (1st installment due upon registration, then October 1, 2025 to June 1st, 2026). These monthly payments are NOT pay-per-month or pay-per-class; they are the full dance season tuition broken into equal installments for convenience. There is NO decrease in equal installments for shorter months; no increase in equal installments for longer months.
Dance class fees are set for the entire season. Please note that statutory holidays and breaks are factored in when prices are set. Your tuition will not be adjusted (up or down) due to statutory holidays and pre-determined breaks (e.g. Winter Break and March Break). Refunds will not be given for classes missed due to illness, vacation or inclement weather. If classes are cancelled by the studio due to an extenuating circumstance such inclement weather etc. makeup classes may be offered but are not guaranteed.
Costumes for competition and recital are ordered in the winter. Professionally-made costumes are custom ordered for each dancer, therefore, costume deposits are non-refundable. No exceptions. When registering, you agree to pay a costume deposit of $65.00 ($90 for competitive costumes) for each class your child is enrolled in on or before the due date outlined by the Studio Director.
After costume deposits have been paid, all costumes will be ordered and cannot be returned. When registering, you agree to pay the full balance of $35 (recreational costumes are $100.00 total per costume; competitive costumes range $150-$250/costume) on each costume ordered for each class your child is enrolled in on or before the due date.
Dancers will not be permitted to participate in studio events, classes, parades, year-end recital shows if there is a late/outstanding balance on my account. All tuition installments, costume payments and fees must be paid in full before participation in our year-end recital shows.
Any late payments (past the 7th of each month) will result in an additional admin fee of $25. All cheques returned as NSF will be charged a $20 fee.

Impulse typically runs multiple year-end recital shows in shorter lengths! Siblings and dancers in multiple classes are not guaranteed to be in the same show. Our recital is split into two shows; show 1 is dancers 2.5-6 years of age (including pre-ballet, creative dance and mini classes) and show 2 is dancers 7-18 years of age (including primary, junior, teen classes). Competitive dancers are expected to perform in all shows.
