Company Payment Policies & Rules
PLEASE REVIEW THE PAYMENT POLICIES THOROUGHLY TO AVOID INCURRING LATE FEES
OR POSSIBLE UN-ENROLLMENT

The Annual Enrollment/Registration FEE for 2020 is $30.00 for the 1st Student, $20.00 for the 2nd, & $15.00 for the 3rd.
(This fee will be required upon each enrollment point if the student is un-enrolled more than 30 days for any reason at any time in 2020.)

Your Monthly Tuition/Account(s) will need to remain current and paid on time.
Monthly Tuition will be posted to your student online portal prior to the 1st of each month, or via digital invoice to the email address provided at enrollment, and MUST BE PAID BY THE 1st OF EACH MONTH. Payments can easily be made via your student online portal or via digital invoice by debit, credit, or by digital check. You may also select to sign up for the "Automated Billing". (See below "Automated Billing" for details.) If you need to pay directly in person, you will want to be sure to pay on a date prior to the due date (Postdated checks for the 1st will be accepted.), and on a day we are "in studio" so you do not incur a late fee by the 2nd of the month. In addition, all student(s) accounts must be paid and remain current in order for the student(s) to enter the class to participate. * If any student(s) account are found not paid, the student will not be able to participate in the class and will be asked to contact their parent for assistance in the matter. **In all fairness the rule of thumb here is that the class must be paid for before the student can participate.

Automated Billing Option:
You have the option to set up your account on an automated bank account debit payment or automated credit card payment. This system is 100% secured by our Jackrabit/QuickBooks Billing Program. Your payments will be processed on the 1st of each month automatically. A "Reoccurring Payment Authorization Form" must be fully completed and returned to us in order to sign up for this option. (Reoccurring Payment Authorization Form is attached.) Once you have completed the form, please hand it back into our office to process and set up your account on the automated billing system. Billing will continue on your account consecutively unless a "DROP FORM" is completed. With the automated billing, we must have at least a 3-day notice to stop billing if you plan to dissolve your membership with us. If we do not receive this notice in time, billing will continue, and a refund will not be available.

Failure to make your payments on time (ON THE DUE DATE indicated on your Invoice) will result in a $20.00 Late Charge. You have at maximum 2 days to make your payment past the invoice due date. The LATE FEE will automatically be applied to your account (NO EXCEPTIONS) on the 2nd day at midnight after payment becomes late. IF your student's account is NOT PAID, the student will not be able to attend their class until the BALANCE and the $20.00 LATE FEE is fully paid. TERMINATION of enrollment may also be exercised at the discretion of the Business Manager if your account continues in delinquency excessively.

Payments will need to be in the form of cash, check, money order, paid online via your student portal, paid via your digital invoice by Debit, Visa, MasterCard, American Express, or Discover. NO other forms of payment will be accepted. Checks or Money Orders must be made payable to: J & J Hip Hop Dance Company.

In the event of a check deposit being returned as unpaid, you will be liable for the class FEE plus the Deposited Item Returned FEE: $25.00. The Returned Item FEE will need to be paid to J & J Hip Hop within 7 days of the check being returned. We may also reserve the right to decline future checks from you and require a different payment method.

Consecutive Tuition Payments:
Once you are enrolled with the company, Tuition Payments are scheduled to be paid on the 1st of each month consecutively as a member fee and not necessarily based on the number of classes within any given month. A student cannot stop attending class for an unspecified period of time and return without paying tuition consecutively or they will need to re-enroll and pay the 2018 $25.00 Enrollment/Registration Fee again. If you plan to keep your student's spot in the class, you must pay consecutively regardless of your attendance in the class. Please review our "REFUND POLICY" for additional information.

General Company Rules & Procedures

Student Responsibility & Class Etiquette
Dancers must attend classes, festivals, performances, recitals, competitions, as arranged and scheduled ahead of time. Dancers will need to maintain a positive attitude towards the Class Instructors and fellow students at all times. Students should always come to class in dance wear or in attire as appropriate for dance & Performing Arts Classes. (See below specific class attire)
A personal (Labeled) water bottle is needed in class well for easy water access.
*The students should always come to class groomed and clean, (i.e. Hair tied back, deodorant applied prior to practice, and so on...).

Warming Up
Please be ON TIME for your classes as it is important to warm up properly to avoid injury. No student(s) will be allowed into the class 20 minutes after the class has commenced, unless previous arrangements have been discussed and warm up is still done before joining the group. Students will be required to commit to the warm ups and exercises as instructed.

Hip Hop, Breaking & Afro Classes
Students should wear loose hip hop clothes (jogging suit or loose sweat pants, and a comfortable shirt). NO MID-DRIFT TOPS. Regular tennis shoes with rubber soles are required, preferably no flat soled shoes (needs to have cushion and arch) & are comfortable to move in. The sole of the shoe should be solid and have traction, so the student does not slide too much on the floor. NO OPEN TOED SHOES, NO BOOTS, NO HEELS. Soft and durable knee pads are encouraged for floor work and some breaking elements to protect the dancer's knees from injury.

Ballet Classes
Students need to wear tights and a leotard (any color is fine). A light weight ballet skirt is ok but not required. Pink Ballet shoes are required for classes. Hair must be up and away from face.

Contemporary, Lyrical, Urban Acrobatics
Girls will need leggings and tank or tshirt. Boys need sweat pants or athletic pants. These classes will require students to either dance barefoot or in socks. Pease use proper feet hygiene (powders, sprays ect.).

You will be in instructed if there are any classroom attire requirements.

Sitting In to View Classes (Parents, Guests, Siblings, Friends, etc.)
J & J Hip Hop Dance Company may allow the dance student's parents, guardians, and friends to observe classes from parent viewing areas outside the studio. We have comfortable convenient waiting areas with complimentary WIFI and screens that will display classes. There is a snack shack in our café area where you can purchase snacks, drinks & candy while you are waiting or students can also recharge between classes. We definitely encourage our dance parents to form friendships and connections with other dance parents. If a guest of the dance student is causing a disruption to the class the guest will be asked to leave the premises. If the guest does not cooperate, the responsible dance student and the guest will be asked to leave the premises. A meeting or phone conference will need to be arranged with the parent of the student and conducted, along with a resolution to the problem, before the responsible dance student or guest can return to class.

Lost or Stolen Property
J & J Hip Hop Dance Company does not have lockers available on location. Please secure your valuables at all times or leave them at home if a loss risk is possible. If you take a personal gym bag into the dance studio with you, leave it in a location where you can keep it in your view. Do not leave bags or clothes in the dance studio or restrooms at the end of class. Please remember to take everything with you after class. We cannot take responsibility for anything left behind. For any property left behind check with the instructor to see if anything was found or you may check the lost and found area.

Inclement Weather
On occasion classes may need to be canceled due to inclement weather conditions or for other unforeseen circumstances. In these instances, please call our studio 719-418-5974 to hear a message about closures or delays. You may also look for updates via email, Social Feeds, Facebook Page, Twitter, Calendar, or KKTV News Television Station for updates and important announcements.
