Costume Deposits
Students who choose to participate in a performance for our year-end shows will require a costume. Costumes are ordered around January, so a costume deposit of $100/class is required by January 1. This can be paid in monthly installments of $20 from September to January, or in a lump sum at any point by the deadline.
Please note this is a deposit only. If you are unsure whether you want to perform, we recommend you include the deposit monthly in your fees. If a costume is never ordered for you, you will receive a full refund. However, once costumes have been ordered, you are responsible for the full cost, regardless of participation. This is a rare occurrence and easily avoided. Costumes may end up costing more or less than $100, which means any money left owing on your costume by May 1 is payable to DAS, but any money overpaid will be refunded back. An itemized costume invoice will be delivered to each student by May 1. Costume overages can be handled by studio-supported fundraising, done year-round. We are always trying to keep dance accessible to all!
Photo Week
Photo Week is only charged to performing dancers, as regular classes will not be on during this time. Group Photo Shoots are charged at the rate of $25 per class, and added as an extra cost to May’s invoice.
Rehearsal Fees
Performance rehearsals are charged differently than regular classes. They can be many hours in length and require “all hands on deck”. Performances are always optional for DAS dancers, so rehearsals are charged extra above the regular class rates at the following prices:
| 1-2 routines | $25.00 per rehearsal |
| 3-4 routines | $30.00 per rehearsal |
| 5+ routines | $35.00 per rehearsal |
*Taxes are included in all prices
Rehearsal costs are NOT charged for the actual performance, only for the tech and dress rehearsals leading up to the performance.
