Tuition:
Monthly tuition is based on four lessons per month. There will be no
additional charge for months with five lessons. Certain months may have a class canceled because of a holiday. These cancellations are balanced by continuing classes in months with five lessons. Make up lessons are not offered for missed classes due to Center closings.
Monthly tuition is due the first week of each month in advance. We do not send out statements except to overdue accounts. It is your responsibility to keep your account up to date. Please write your child's name and class time on your tuition check. If you pay with cash, please see that you receive a cash receipt. Cash and checks only accepted.

Length of Enrollment:
Once registered for a class, you are enrolled in that class until you let us know that you are dropping out. Regular monthly tuition is expected regardless of attendance until you drop out of a class.
In the case of exteded absences in a full class (class which has a waiting list), class placement can only be held by paying regular monthly fees and using make up lessons as outlined.
If you plan on missing a class for any reason, please call the center and let us know.
If your child misses more than four consecutive classes without notifying the center, we will assume that you have dropped out. In the case of a full class, you would still owe for the four missed lessons.

It may be necessary during the year to rearrange or adjust our class schedule to accommodate a gymnastics meet, holiday, or special function. It is not our policy to cancel classes. However, we may reschedule a class for a different day or time, but will do so only as a last resort. Certain months may have a class canceled because of a holiday.

At no time are parents or children not enrolled in the class being conducted allowed on any of the gymnastics mats or equipment. This is for your safety! Please do not ask for exceptions to this policy.

We cannot allow students nor non-students to play outside of the building.
Students are not allowed to wait outside the building for parents to pick them up. This is for their safety! They may leave the building when the parents are in front of the building or the side where they can be seen from the door.
