General Policies

At the time of registration, dancers receive a full handbook on our policies and procedures to guide new dance families in their dance education with UVDC! Below you can find our general policies that can be helpful before arriving for your first class!

- Guests & dancers: Please keep our studio clean. No food or drink besides plain water inside the studio. (Use clear bottles with secure lids please, no glass, no straws.)

- No strollers inside please.

- Please keep electronics/phones silenced and voices down when inside. Our lobby is open to the classroom, so too much noise could be distracting.

- Observing is available from the lobby. No standing in the hall or door ways. We have enough seating available for one observer at least per dancer, but please do not bring excessive guests. Seating is reserved for parents/guardians of the dancers during their class time.

- PHOTOS are only permitted from the lobby, of your dancer(s). NO VIDEO or AUDIO recordings. No photos will be permitted from the hall or in any position or circumstance which could distract, offend, or otherwise make anyone uncomfortable. (UVDC reserves the right to require any camera or device with a camera put away and to not allow pictures at any time.)

- Children should not be left unattended in the studio, or left for excessive amounts of time prior to, or after their class time. One parent or guardian of Little Dancers who are not potty-trained, must remain in the lobby during their class time.

- To perpetuate the positive atmosphere and show studio pride, registered dance families should be supportive of the policies set by Unique Visions Dance Company.

- Remember we want to help you! If you have questions that are not answered in your handbook, please ask us.

F.A.Q

What are your qualifications?

Ms. Chelsea Hill the director and instructor is certified by examination (Level I, II & III) in the Dance Educators of America Teacher Training & Certification Program in Classical Ballet, Jazz Dance, Tap Dance, Modern Dance and Theatrical Acrobatics/Tumbling. She's also Acrobatic Arts Module One Certified and has earned a B.A. in Liberal Studies focusing in elementary education and has been teaching since 2005. Our co-director Ms. Lethia has worked with children in day care and the school district, been educated in early childhood development, and has the experience of a seasoned dance mom of many years.

What is the purpose of your policies?

They are the very structure that creates the environment needed for the type of dance education we provide. Because parents are privileged to view and listen to classes, policies are applicable in the entire studio. Our policies protect the learning environment we provide as well as guarantee an equal experience to all our families and dancers.

What age students do you teach? Do you offer Pre-school classes?

We offer classes for students age 2 to 18. Our Little Dancer Program is for 2-4 years old. They do ballet and jazz in a 45 min. class. For all new students we do a trial class to be sure they enjoy the class and that young ones are ready for a class setting before committing monthly. More information can be found under Class Descriptions and interested parents can visit our "Try a Class" page to learn more.

About our Little Dancer Program

How much do classes cost and how often are classes?

Our schedule and price list can be found on our website under Tuition and Class Schedule. Each class is once a week, but dancers may choose to take more classes. Tuition must be paid by Square secure checkout links online by the specified due dates and times as provided when you register. For your convenience we email an online checkout link for monthly tuition. Tuition not paid by the due date/time is subject to late fees.

What are your hours? May I just observe a class?

We are open during class times as listed on our website under "Schedule" and "Contact Us". The doors open 10 minutes before the first class of each day. We are eager to meet all new potential students during business hours but we do require students to try the class they are interested in before registering. Observing does not allow the instructor to evaluate the dancer in order to place them, nor give the dancer a good feel for if they would enjoy being a member of our dance family.

Do you offer rental space, private lessons, or choreography?

We do not offer rental space, however we do offer private lessons and choreography. Prices depend on the amount of time needed and the type of choreography requested.
