Registration & Refunds


Class size minimums: Classes that do not reach the minimum class size of five students will be cancelled and full refunds will be provided.

Refunds: The $15 registration fee per class is never refundable. In addition, refunds on the balance of tuition are not available after the third week of class. 

Pro-rate policy: Students who register after the first week of class will be pro-rated for the value of the missed classes at the rate of $20/class (for one-hour classes; longer classes will be adjusted according to pricing).

To try a class: Steppin’ Out does not offer 'drop-ins.' However, if a dancer would like to try taking one class before committing to the whole session and there is a space available in the desired class, they can do so once, for $20 (for one-hour classes; longer classes will be adjusted according to pricing). Note: This does not reserve your space in the class; you must register for the class to reserve your spot and it is possible the class will fill before you do so.

Returning students: We do not offer automatic re-enrollment from fall to spring or spring to the following fall. To enroll in a class, you must register for each semester. 

Class age restrictions are enforced. When you register for a class, an email confirmation will be sent to you from activityhero.com. You will not receive a call from us unless there is a problem with your registration or the class is full.

Trial classes: Any student may take a single trial class for $20 for any class that we offer that is not already at maximum enrollment. A trial class can also be used as a placement class for any student age 8 or older who's interested in joining Steppin Out for the first time and wondering which level will be the best fit.

Cancellation: Families may cancel their enrollment if they notify Steppin' Out of their desire to leave a class within 3 weeks of the class's start date. Tuition will be refunded except for the nonrefundable $15 registration fee plus $20 for each class taken before requesting a refund. The cost of the remaining classes in the semester will be refunded back to the original form of payment. 

Class Policies

Although our general philosophy is to keep the emphasis on having fun, we do have a few guidelines to help the studio run more smoothly for everyone:

Dress code: Students should wear dance attire that they can move freely in. Please note that hair should be secured up and out of the face. Steppin’ Out does not have a uniform, but students might choose to wear leotards, tights, leggings, dance pants, tank tops, dance skirts, tutus, or fitted t-shirts. Any combination, color, or pattern is fine. No jeans please. Please wear appropriate shoes for the style of your class (tap shoes, ballet shoes, jazz shoes, etc.). Contemporary and creative movement classes will be barefoot.

Observation policy: To avoid overcrowding in the studio, parents and caregivers of students age 6 and older must drop off their child for class. Parents and caregivers of students up to age 5 will be allowed to stay in the studio during class to help with shoe changes and support (staying is not required).

On select dates throughout the year, parents will be invited to stay and watch class during designated Parent Observation Weeks.

If you are waiting for your child’s class to finish or have a sibling to entertain, we recommend Robin’s Café, Stable Café, Linea Café, Fox and Lion Bread, and In Chan Kaajal Park, all of which are within 1-2 blocks of the studio.

COVID safety policies: Steppin’ Out has a HEPA air purifier in each studio that will be on during all indoor classes. Additionally, windows will be kept open to increase air flow when the weather allows. Anyone who has symptoms of COVID-19 or tests positive for COVID-19 should stay home. Masks are optional.

Punctuality & attendance: Dancers are expected to arrive on time and attend class regularly, especially in the spring semester in preparation for the annual performance.
