How do I pay the $25 registration fee and/or semester fee?
Pay Here
Pay your $25 Registration fee to save your dancer a spot. Or you may call/text  Shannon @ 502.863.6262 to pay over the phone. If you’re already part of The Studio family and have a card on file, give her the green light to process the registration fee.

May I make payments for the semester fee?
Sure, just put a credit card on file with us and have everything all paid in full by April.

What is the drop off and pick up protocol?
Parents may park in the Health Department parking lot and/or street and walk your dancer over to The Studio main door to drop off and pick up. Parents may use their car as a waiting room, our back yard, run errands or enjoy a walk downtown.

What should my child wear?
We’d like the dancers to wear their hair up and out of their face, a  leotard, tights and ballet shoes. I have them for sale here or you may purchase on your own. 

Will there be a recital or extra investment?
Yes. The costume and recital fees will be in the $75 range and we’ll be collecting for that in February.   Our recital will take place here on the last day of the semester on Saturday, April 19th,
