Class Information for New Students

Trials/Makeup Policies

Trial Classes: We invite all dancers try a class in advance before signing up for a full session. We offer one free trial class in advance of registration for new students only. You do not need dance attire/shoes for the trial lesson , something your dancer can move in and barefoot works great. (ie: leggings and a t-shirt) Please see below for information on class attire once you register for the class. Thanks so much, look forward to dancing with you!

Please email us or go through the form submission on our “Schedule” page or register on directly on Sawyer on the online registration page. Click on “free trial offer” to get the first class free. We cannot accommodate walk-in trials and we do not offer trials for class listed as full.

Make-up Policy: We offer makeup classes for any missed classes. If you would like to makeup your class, please contact the studio via email at twinkletoesdancela@gmail.com to schedule this in advance with your child’s full name, class requested and the date. We do not offer makeups for classes listed as full.

** Please note! Makeup lessons cannot be used as credits towards future classes. They do not expire and can be used at any time but cannot roll over as tuition credit toward future sessions. Thank you. **

No-Refund Policy: We offer a free trial class in advance of signing up and we do not offer refunds after you have officially enrolled your child in class. If something does come up we can offer a credit towards future classes. If you have a medical circumstance, please contact the director and we can work something out for you. Thanks so much for your understanding.
