Updated: July 2023

When signing up for dance lessons, be aware that studios may have some other fees like registration fees, costume fees (recital costumes are custom made so they are expensive (around $60-$80) and ordered months in advance), tickets for the shows because they rented out a larger venue to accommodate parents and relatives, DVDs of the show and of course the beautiful photos that you see on Facebook! 

*Tip:  If you need to call a studio to speak to them about classes, try calling in the late afternoon or early evening.
