Each month, we email customers a newsletter that highlights all activities and events for that month. In addition, we send more detailed emails with important updates and news as events get closer. We also post regularly on Instagram, @hartacademy, and Facebook, Hart Academy of Dance, so we encourage you to follow us and read emails carefully, as they always contain helpful information. Another quick and easy way to view all events is on our Happening Now page of our website. Furthermore, our new Blog – Hartlines are quick articles to highlight fun happenings at the studio.
Our new season starts on August 19 and runs through July of the following year. We offer year round signups of classes. All students enrolled will receive a recommendation for their level in June for the new season. We recommend levels based on skill and assessments done by instructors, department heads, and the director. If you’d like to learn more about our amazing teaching staff, click here to meet the team!
After your Free Trial class, our administrative team will personally contact you. You also will receive your evaluation to confirm if the level is appropriate for your dancer.
You can drop a class and re-enroll again in the same class (pending availability). If you want to save your spot, you can hold that spot in any full class for an additional fee. As a reminder, the best progress is consistent attendance. Our staff regularly reviews attendance for all dancers who are on Performance and/or Company Competition Teams.
Please submit drop requests only through this form by the 23rd of the previous month: Drop Request- Hart Academy of Dance. We cannot accept phone calls or email drops.
We have lots of dancers that attend both locations. We run the studios as one business and dancers can take classes at both. All of our recitals combine both locations and our staff works at both locations.
Combo classes are designed for pre-school age dancers and combine ballet and tap or jazz and hip-hop within the same hour. All birthdays are as of November 1.
All customers have a customer portal that accepts payments via credit card. In the studio, we accept cash and checks. You will need to attach a card on file to successfully register. The studio’s billing date is the 7th of the month. If you would prefer to pay in cash or check, you must make your payment in the studio by the 6th.
