Tuition

New for 2026-2027! We have a new tuition scale that accurately reflects class hours saving you money and time!

Tuition is based off of a full season (August-May) and payments are to be made in equal monthly installments prior to the first of the month. Tuition does not reflect the number of classes or weeks in a month. Tuition payments are NON-REFUNDABLE for any missed classes. Holidays are not prorated.

Registration Fee

A one-time payment of $40 for the first student and $20 for each additional sibling will be due upon registration with your first month’s tuition.

‍Late Fees

‍If the card on file is declined for any reason and an alternate payment has not been made by the 5th of the month, the following fees will apply:
5 days late = $5 fee
10 days late = $10 fee
15 days late = $15 fee and dancer may be asked to sit until account is made current.

‍Multi-Student and Parent Discount

‍Families with more than one student enrolled at 5678 Dance will receive a ten percent (10%) discount off of Monthly Tuition payments. Parents of enrolled students will receive a fifty percent (50%) discount off of Tuition Payments for adult classes. The adult class discount is the maximum discount available no matter the number of enrolled students the parent has.

‍Payment Methods

‍All tuition payments, costumes, competition fees, andrecital fees will be automatically charged to the card on file on the due date. Tuition will be auto drafted on the 1st of every month. Costume fees will be auto-drafted according to the schedule below. You may provide a different method of payment, but it must be made prior to the 1st. We accept payments via credit/debit, cash, and check. There is a $35 fee for all returned checks. For any payment method I select, I hereby authorize 5678 Dance to charge/debit my account for payment of my bill and for any other reasonable charges for all activities, costumes, special events, and other activities related to this Agreement. I understand that any charges/debits to your account may not be processed without your consent. I realize that once I have been charged, there is no refund on tuition, costumes, or recital fees. I must notify 5678 Dance of my intent to withdraw from classes at least 30 days in advance and understand that all charges within that time frame will still be due.

Performances & Costumes

5678 Dance presents TWO fabulous productions each season: a Winter Extravaganza (ballet classes only) and our Annual Spring Recital (all other classes except ballet). More details on each performance will be released closer to the show. All dancers will participate in recitals. If you know you will not be able to participate in either show, you must e-mail us at info@5678dance.com by September 1st for our Winter Ballet and December 1st for our Spring production. Please check our studio calendar for our tentative performance dates. For a student to be eligible to participate in a performance, your account MUST be current in payment.

Costumes

Each class will have a costume for our performances. Families must pay for the cost of those costumes in addition to any registration fees or Monthly Tuition payments, unless otherwise agreed upon. Costumes are generally $85 & up.

Costume balances are due according to the schedule below:

September 1st - deposit of $50 PER CLASS due

December 1st - Full balance for competition costumes due

January 1st - Full balance for all recital costumes due

All costume fees and deposits will be auto-drafted via the method indicated on the parent portal on the due date. Costumes not paid in full by January 1st will not be ordered and/or released. (Costume fees are non-refundable.)

*Ballet classes will perform in our Winter Extravaganza ONLY. You must register for another style (tap, jazz, lyrical, hip-hop, or musical theatre) to perform in our spring recital. Ballet/tap combos will perform a ballet routine in the Nutcracker and a tap routine in the spring.

‍

Parent Portal

All families will have access to our parent portal to process payments, register for classes, and be informed of current happenings at the studio. It is very important that you check this often and keep your information up to date. We understand that as a parent, you receive a million emails a day, but it is our most used form of communication and the best way to contact us. We are committed to staying “green” by reducing our output of paperwork. You can access the Parent Portal by clicking the link at the top right corner of this website.

Withdrawal Policy

To withdraw, a student must provide thirty (30) days written notice via e-mail at info@5678dance.com. Any payments due and paid after providing notice are non-refundable.

Dress Code

It is the responsibility of the parents to provide proper attire for class, but it is the responsibility of the student to dress properly for class. Students not properly attired may be asked to watch class. Hair should be pulled back off of the face and buns MUST be worn for ballet. Please write the student’s name in all shoes, bags, and attire. Please refer to the Class Descriptions and Attire section of our website to find the correct dress code for your class and where to purchase items.

Studio Policies

Students should not be dropped off at the studio more than 5 minutes before scheduled class times and should be picked up no later than 5 minutes after class ends. After the first 5 minutes, there will be a $1/minute fee added to your account. 5678 Dance shall not assume responsibility for students dropped off early or left late and shall not assume responsibility for students outside the building.
Discourteous or disruptive students may be required by the instructor to sit down and take a “time out” from class, or, parents may be called to pick the student up early. Consistently discourteous or disruptive students and/or parents may be required to withdraw from classes at the discretion of 5678 Dance.
No food or drinks other than water will be permitted inside the studio.
Devices such as smart watches, tablets, or other similar personal electronic devices are not allowed inside the dance studio.
Cell phones are permitted in the dance studio but must remain in bags and must be turned off. We do not permit the use of cell phones between classes unless there is an emergency. If they are seen, they will be given to the front desk until the student is finished with classes.
A student’s personal belongings should be labelled with his or her name.
Dancers should be on time to class and make every effort to attend each session. Attendance is very important in dance instruction and is important to classmates as well. Make-up classes are available within 30 days of the missed class and can be scheduled through the parent portal.
5678 Dance follows Gwinnett County Public Schools’ decisions on inclement weather closings/delays. Classes cancelled on these decisions may be made up but shall not be refunded.
Any student that is confirmed to have COVID-19, is exhibiting symptoms of COVID-19, or has been exposed to a person that has tested positive for COVID-19 is not permitted to participate in classes until they are no longer a risk of infection to the other students and teachers.
