Welcome to Tutu School!
every child should know what it feels like to dance ✨
Here’s what you need to know…
1. Membership.
We are a Monthly Membership program. Registration is ongoing; you can sign up at any time of the year! Membership benefits include:
- Your weekly ballet class
- Unlimited classes during your 1st month (advance sign-up required, pending availability)
- Access to Tutu TV, our platform of recorded classes & activity content
- Priority access to Tutu School events
- Makeup classes for absences
- Flexible cancellation policy
2. Tuition.
Membership is $121/month. No registration, enrollment, or cancellation fees. Simple!
If you join mid-month we prorate your membership to begin; then going forward, membership is automatically charged on the 1st of every month and remains equal every month throughout the year. Some months will naturally have 5 weeks of classes and some will have 3 weeks due to a holiday break. Membership payments stay the same and equal out over time.
3. Cancellation.
You can cancel anytime prior to the 1st of the next month. Super flexible! Your membership will continue to be charged on the 1st of every month until you tell us you’ll be taking a break. We simply need notice by email (teachers cannot process cancellations) by the end of the current month, or submit your cancellation online through the Pirouette Portal. Once you are charged on the 1st, membership remains active for that month, and payment is nonrefundable.
4. Dress Code.
Students are welcome to choose dancewear that makes ballet class most special to them! No specific color, style, or brand of dancewear is required. Tutus and skirts are absolutely permitted, naturally!
TRIAL STUDENTS: Our dress code is not a requirement for our trial students; anything comfortable for movement, and bare feet or rubber-soled socks, will work just great! We sell all of the ballet attire at our studio and would love to have you shop with us.
BABY BALLET & TUTU TODDLERS: Please come ready to participate with your child! Although all dancewear is welcomed and encouraged, students in our youngest divisions are invited to wear any clothes that they can move easily in, and bare feet if they do not have ballet slippers. We recommend bringing your own yoga mat for Baby Ballet, though we have mats to borrow as well.
EXPLORING BALLET & PRIMARY BALLET PREP: We ask students in our older divisions to wear leotards, dance dresses or fitted shirts with tights or leggings and ballet slippers. Please tuck in all drawstrings on slippers, and secure long hair away from the face as much as possible.
5. Makeup Classes.
Miss a class? No problem! You can always book a makeup class right on our website or by contacting us directly. You’re welcome to book any needed makeup classes whenever works best for you, while membership remains continuously active. The scheduler will book up to three-weeks in advance, and makeup spots are always pending availability. You can book makeup classes here. Makeup classes cannot be attended or booked once a membership cancellation has gone into effect.
6. Recital.
Yes! We offer performance opportunities twice a year. Bravo Bash is our sweet twist on a traditional recital,and is held around spring and winter each year. All students in our Tutu Toddlers, Exploring Ballet, and Primary Ballet Prep divisions are invited to sign up & perform to show off their twirling on stage and celebrate their hard work. Participation is optional, but encouraged!
7. Ready to Enroll?
Hooray! We have some sweet perks specifically for our trial students. Please check with your Tutu Teacher or our Support Staff to learn more!
Completing enrollment is super quick and easy! Simply confirm with your Tutu Teacher during your trial class you’re ready to enroll, or send us a text, email, or call saying you’re ready to enroll. We’ll take it from there!
Any remaining questions? Let us know! We’re happy to help.
