Tuition Fees

Placement in a class is only guaranteed when accompanied by your first tuition payment. All remaining tuition payments will be processed on the third Tuesday of the month. At ENCORE we process tuition ahead of instruction, therefore your last payment will occur in May although our instruction will continue in June. You will receive an invoice after each processing date. A $10 fee will occur for late payments. Returned checks will be charged $25.

Tuition consists of a fixed monthly charge. There will be 3 to 5 classes per month. On average throughout the season there will be 4 classes per month and the monthly charge will not change. Tuition is not a pay-by-class rate and will not be pro-rated due to vacations, holidays, pre-scheduled closures or absences. This includes classes missed or canceled due to bad weather, instructor illness, etc. In case of a mandated shut-down all classes will automatically switch to virtual lessons, no refunds or pro-rates will be issued.

Any/all missed classes can be made up during the current season (Sept - Jun) in a class of your choosing. Make up class requests must be submitted email by info@encorepacnw.com for scheduling.

​

You may switch classes within the season one time. No one is allowed to switch (recital) classes after February 1st (unless by instructor approval) as classes are focused on choreography and formations for recital.

​

Once a student is enrolled into a class and completed their registration, we consider them enrolled to the end of our season in June. Be sure to enroll in the correct level (following pre-req's if applicable) for your classes. We will be watching registration and will notify you via email if we see anything that needs to be changed. We anticipate our classes to fill and encourage you to add yourself to any wait list. Typically we are able to add dancers after reviewing the class’s student base. Any schedule changes will be updated and can be viewed on our class schedule.

Recital Fees

Our end of season recital (Theme "Unleashed") will be held on June 18th at the Sherwood Center for the Arts. ENCORE does not have a recital fee, however we will be selling our recital t-shirts starting in January '22. The proceeds from this will go towards theatre rental, extra rehearsals, additional instructor hours, sound tech/light staff, ect. Students participating in recital will need to purchase a costume for each class. Costume fee will range between $35 to $85 depending on the class/style. Recital costumes will be ordered by February and fees will be automatically processed on February 15th. Costumes must be paid in full before the student is able to receive the items ordered. We are unable to offer any refunds for recital costume costs. It is our goal to keep costume and ticket pricing as low as possible.

Musical Theatre Fees

Musical Theatre is back! This years production is The Greatest Showman! No experience, no audition is necessary for registration. Students will learn acting skills, audition skills, how to dance/sing while building confidence to take the stage. In-class auditions will occur in early October and each student will receive a part in the musical. Students will take the stage on May 22nd at the Sherwood Center for the Arts. Its time to SHINE!
