Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions for us? We totally understand, it’s a big step to sign up for a new dance studio! We’re firm believers in being 100% transparent and open about how we run things around here. So if you’ve got something not listed below, give us a call or drop by our studio and let’s talk.

Class Registration

We have multiple different ways to sign up for dance classes. You can give us a call, drop by our studio, or visit Class Registration to get started.

Of course! We take pride in being a Tucson dance studio offering fun, recreational classes as well as competitive performance opportunities.

Since dance fees are charged on a month-to-month basis you may drop out of a class at any time. If you have paid a month’s fee and drop during the middle of the month you will not receive a refund. You may, however, finish the rest of the month and drop at the end of that particular month.

To ensure that you do not get billed after you have dropped a class, please make sure to obtain and deliver a Drop Form at the front desk so that we may remove you from that class list and our billing records prior to the month you wish to drop.

You may make-up missed classes by scheduling attendance in similar class. Missed classes are not refundable. Tuition is still due to hold the spot for your child. There are no refunds if you drop a class(es) in the middle of the month, choose other activities over dance class, or simply skip class. We request that a parent call or email the studio to inform the teacher and staff of any absences, illness, or problem a student might be having.

If your child has a contagious illness, please keep them out of class until they are recovered and can participate fully without risk, relapse, or injury. If it is a minor injury, student is expected to observe class and take notes. In the case of serious injury that would require students to miss a month or more of class, tuition might be waived (this is determined by the BC DE staff on a case-by-case basis).

If student arrives after class has begun, they must wait for music to end before joining class, or be invited in by the instructor. Students arriving 15 minutes or more after class has begun will be asked to observe class, and take notes to the best of their ability.

Studio and Facilities

Absolutely! Our new, state-of-the-art studio features built-in TVs, complimentary refreshments,  & comfortable lobby room so you can sit and watch your child on the big screen. 

Parent’s observance of classes is recommended and encouraged. Parents must view through the viewing windows and are not to enter the classroom, unless given permission from an instructor. Due to the small space for viewing in the lobby, please be courteous to other parents and our staff by not allowing young children to run around or remain waiting, to allow staff and parents ease of access.

We support dance lessons ranging from 5 – 30 students. Our instructors are highly-trained, enthusiastic, and ready to train a class of any size!

BC Dance has recently moved to a new studio right off Oracle Road in the Catalina Foothills! This new location is professionally cleaned every week, features 3 state-of-the-art studio rooms, & a recently-upgraded lobby / waiting room with live class feeds & complimentary refreshments.

For any dancers taking ballet or a ballet combo class, you must wear a leotard, tights and ballet shoes, as outlined below. Hair must be worn in a bun, with bangs pinned back out of your face.

Tap shoes, and comfortable clothing.

We recommend that dancers wear comfortable clothes or dancewear that will allow them to move, but is not too baggy that the instructor cannot see proper body movement. Bare feet are acceptable in class, but dancers may wear jazz shoes, Pirouettes, socks or Foot Undeez if they’d prefer. Students with long hair should have hair pulled up into a clean ponytail.
