Studio Space Conduct

  • Absolutely NO RUNNING IN THE HALLS, especially in tap shoes. It is disruptive to classes that are in session and could result in collisions with other children in the hallway.

  • No food in the halls and on the couches. We have a beautiful court yard right outside that can be used for snacks and drinks while in between classes and while waiting for classes to begin. We really don’t want any ANTS!

  • No food or drink inside dance studios beside water in a water bottle.

  • No street shoes inside studios as they can damage our dance floors.

  • Hair MUST be tied back in a ponytail or bun for ALL classes.

  • Dress code MUST be followed for each class- no T-shirts, jeans, skirts, dresses, heeled shoes/boots in any class.

  • Please clean up after yourself, respect the space so that others can enjoy a clean environment. Thank you! :)

Preparing for Class

  • Shoes should be purchased and labeled clearly with child’s name. Dress Code items must be purchased from the Artistico Store as they are a specific style.

  • BORROW shoes will only be available for new students that haven’t had a chance to purchase shoes, or for trial classes only. After three uses of borrow shoes your account will be charged $10 dollars for each borrow shoe use. This is to cut down on distractions and time dedicated to finding shoes that fit during class time.

  • Registered students will be expected to have a small dance bag and their OWN personal tap and ballet shoes for classes. Please do not guess your Childs size and buy shoes on AMAZON, they never fit as sizing is unique to each brand of shoe. Please get your child fitted at the studio as we carry a broad range of sizes so that your dancer gets the correct size and fit.

  • Dancers will put on shoes first and line up on black ramp against the wall WITH THEIR DANCE BAG to wait for their class to begin in order to streamline getting in and out of our studios and to help keep all students accounted for. Dancers and dance bags will enter the studio when their class is ready to begin.

  • No Parents are allowed in Studios. No Exceptions.

Trial Classes

  • Trial classes are $32/1 hr class & $48/1.5hr class and will be charged to the card on the account. Online enrollment must be completed before attending a trial class.
