Registration is designed for students who are 1.5 - 18 years of age (until the completion of high school) for all Regular and Summer Classes, Summer Camps, and Master Classes. There is only a registration fee for Regular Session Classes, not Summer Classes, Camps or Saturday Master Classes.
Adults 18+ years of age are not required to register. You may purchase a class card with a certain number of classes on it and use this card for any class that is marked with an * on the class schedules. You can come once per week or 5 times per week, but you must use all of your classes within the semester of purchase. We are not responsible for lost, stolen, or damaged cards.

Attendance: Consistent attendance is extremely important for a student’s development as a dancer and for their understanding of responsibility and commitment. If a student must miss class, their guardian should call to inform the office. If a student is injured their recovery is most important, so we highly encourage them to attend class only to observe. If a student is ill, please do not bring them to class, but call and inform the office so they are eligible for a make-up class.
Make-Up Classes: Only students who (1) miss a class because of sickness and (2) call the office in advance of the absence are allowed to make-up the class. You can choose from any age-appropriate, same length class. Make-up classes are not given for any other reason. No refunds will be provided. Please get a “Class Pass” from the office if you are eligible and taking a make-up class.
Late Arrivals: Students arriving late may be asked to sit and observe, as missing warm-up can cause injury. Students entering late must watch through an observation window until there is a stoppage in the music, and then they may enter and ask the teacher if they may join-in. Waiting until music stops to enter is particularly important for students under the age of 8.
Dress Code: Dressing appropriately for class is of utmost importance for the safety of students, to allow for proper instruction, and to show respect to the art form of dance. Please review our Class Descriptions and Attire info to learn what should be worn for each class. Students who are not dressed appropriately will be asked to observe. Students should not wear panties under tights. When entering and exiting the studio, students should wear cover-ups and non-dance shoes.
Observation: Parents are encouraged to watch class through the observation windows. It is the teacher’s discretion if she/he would like the blinds opened or closed. The teachers love for parents to watch, but depending on the age and behavior of the children it is sometimes necessary to have the blinds closed. Please do not ask the teacher to open the blinds if they are closed. Please do not enter the studio room during a class session for any reason. The instructor will contact parents/staff if assistance is needed.
Lost and Found: Lost and found items are placed in a designated area in the bag room. Unclaimed items are donated at the end of each semester. Dance Xplosion and staff are not responsible for lost or stolen items.
Parent-Teacher-Studio Communication: Our front desk is staffed throughout the day, but should you have a question/comment/concern and no office staff is immediately available please feel free to (1) drop a note in the “mailbox,” (2) call the studio or (3) send an email. Should you need to speak directly with your child’s teacher, please either write her/him a note or leave a message on the studio voicemail. In an effort to keep classes running on time and instruction at its best, please do not interrupt instructors unless it is an absolute emergency.
Safety: Safety is the most important issue at Dance Xplosion! To ensure a safe experience please instruct your child to remain inside the studio for the duration of their time at dance. Students should be dropped off no more than 10 minutes prior to class and should be picked up no more than 5 minutes after. A fee of $15 will be applied to any student’s account that is picked up more than 15 minutes late. We are not responsible for students before/after their class time, or after they exit the studio, as we are not equipped to care for students outside of class time.
