What is the difference between term classes and regular classes?
BOOKING, REBOOKING, CANCELLATIONS
Regular class - For our regular classes, you can book per class or using your 8-class package. You may cancel or reschedule your classes up to 12 hours before each session, and you may also use your 8-class package to book any other class you want to join! Booking for regular classes happens before the start of every month.
Term class - For our term classes, you book and pay for 7 or 8 consecutive weeks of the same class schedule. You may not rebook, cancel or transfer unattended classes.
CLASS LESSON
Regular class - For regular classes, the lesson will be set by the teacher for that day. Teachers can announce their lesson or choreography beforehand, and students can attend based on their schedule or if they want to learn the topic or dance.
Term class - For our term classes, the lesson plan for the whole 7 or 8 sessions will be set by the teacher in advance with the goal to complete, progress, and improve on a skill, trick, sequence, or choreography by the end of the term.
ADVANTAGES FOR EACH CLASS TYPE
Regular class - When signing up for regular classes, you have the flexibility to join, cancel, rebook, your class. If you have an irregular schedule, or want to join different kinds of classes within the month, you can also do so as you please!
Term class - For our term classes, you will be booked in for all 7 or 8 sessions for the next weeks. You will only need to book once for all the sessions. To commit to all the weeks, the per-class rate is also a bit cheaper. You will also be able to work on one certain topic, skill, sequence, or choreography with the teacher for the duration of the term.
I can't attend one session, can I rebook it or can someone attend the class in my place?
No, term class is a commitment for the whole 7 or 8 sessions for only the students signed up.
Are these the only classes happening from January to March 2026? What if I don't get a slot for a term class in my level?
These are not the only classes in our schedule for the first quarter of the year! We will announce the rest of our classes every month, just as we usually do. Rest assured, for almost all of the classes, there will be another open regular class in the schedule for you to attend, in case you are unable to sign up for a full term.
