Visiting Day
Danspace will have three visiting days each semester. Visiting Day for the Fall 2011 semester will be the first class of the month in September (12-17th), November (1-7) and January (2-7). The Spring 2012 semester Visiting Day will be the first class of the month in February (Jan 30-Feb 4), and April (9-14). Note that Spring semester begins in January and the first Visiting day for Monday and Tuesday classes will be in January.

Visiting Day is an opportunity for you to observe class and for the children to share what they have been learning. We ask that you support the children and the teachers by not remaining in the foyer except on Visiting Day. Exceptions are made for the first few classes of very young children. Visiting “dignitaries” such as grandparents may visit any class by prior appointment.

We are located in a wonderful neighborhood full of great local shops. When it is not visiting day, we encourage you to get out of the studio and get some errands done.You could head out to get some coffee at Alem's Coffe (5353 Claremont Ave), or Bittersweet Cafe (5427 College Ave); or do your grocery shopping at Trader Joes (5727 College Ave), or Safeway (6310 College Ave); or check out some books at Rockridge Branch Library (5366 College Ave), Diesel, A Bookstore (5433 College Ave), Pegasus Books (5560 College Ave); or even do some shopping for your young dancer at San Francisco Dancewear (5900 College Avenue).

Other Important Information

Missed Classes may be made up at any time while the child is fully enrolled in the school. Advanced notice of at least 24 hrs. is required. Classes are not transferable. There can be no adjustment to tuition for classes missed. NO MAKEUP CLASSES DURING THE LAST THREE WEEKS OF THE SESSION.

Holidays are posted on the Children’s Division Bulletin Board, and the studio’s outgoing telephone message. We close for two weeks in December and one week in the Spring. Only selected Monday holidays are observed.

Recitals are a special event not an annual occurrence. Dance Parties are held in the Spring, in our studio, to celebrate a year of dancing achievement in a lighthearted atmosphere.

Immediate family members are invited to share in the fun. It is possible the Danspace students may have additional performance opportunities throughout the year.

If your check is returned, Danspace will charge a bounced check fee in the amount of $35.00.
