Here's what you can expect at your first class:

• If you arrive a little early, you can wait in the lobby until class begins.

• Your teachers will welcome dancers into the studio when it's time for your class. Parents may wait in the lobby. (If you have a very apprehensive child, give them a chance to be brave and overcome their fear, but if they need a little more encouragement, you are welcome to join them in class for a few minutes until they are settled.)

• The first few minutes will be spent getting to know each other and talking about what is expected during class and throughout the year.

• After class, teachers will dismiss dancers to their parents. We will not let children outside without a parent present. Older dancers (middle school and older) will be allowed to find their parents in the parking lot.
