There are a number of question which we are asked on a weekly basis. For your convenience we have put together a list of questions and answers that will help save you time looking for information.
Do I need to buy studio uniform or shoes before I enrol?
No – dancers trying classes for the first time are encouraged to come in comfy clothes and sneakers. Uniform, shoes and accessories can be purchased at the studio either on class days or at the start of the year at our Registration and Discount Uniform Day.
Can I enrol after the dancing year has started?
Yes – we accept new students throughout the year. Just email us at megan@chadwickstudios.com.au for an information package and timetable.
Is it compulsory to participate in the end of year concert?
Our concerts are not compulsory, but highly recommended. It’s a fun and entertaining experience for everyone involved and a great way for your dancer to show off all the hard work they have put in throughout the year. Our concerts are designed to be pressure-free and as relaxed & fun as possible for everyone involved.
Can parents watch the class?
First-time parents of the younger groups may watch the beginning of the first class to help settle dancers in. After this we find that the children respond much better without parents and siblings in the studio. You should perhaps be aware that, after many years of experience we have learned some unique approaches to apply for those children who have trouble separating from their parents. Importantly, don’t worry if it takes your dancer a couple of weeks to feel comfortable and to start participating.
For all other classes, parents are not permitted to enter or be present in the studio once class has commenced as it is distracting and unsettling, not just for your child but for all the dancers whose time on the studio dance floor is equally important.
