Frequently asked questions
What are my payment options?
At Sunshine Dance our preferred form of payment is by e-check, but families also have the ability to pay by credit card. You will register your preferred form of payment in your account and this payment method will be used on the first of each month to pay all tuition and fees due at that time. * all tuition and fees are non-refundable
Do you have a competitive Dance Team?
We do! Information about our award winning Sunshine Dance Company can be found on our Company Page.
What if my child wants to drop out of their class?
While we never want to lose a student from a class, we realize that sometimes life happens and it may become difficult to continue with your dance commitment. Any consideration to drop a class must be discussed with the studio owner, Jared Titus. Enrollment in class is a 9 month commitment. If a final decision is made to drop the class, the parent must give a 30 day notice, in writing, of your intent to drop. You will be responsible for tuition fees for the full 30 days. * all tuition and fees are non-refundable.
What do you charge for tickets to recital?
Our Annual Spring Recital is FREE of charge and open to the public. In lieu of charging for tickets, each student pays a $30 recital fee to help cover the cost of auditorium rental. Families with multiple students will pay $30 for the first student and $10 each for additional students who are siblings within the same household.
How do I know which class is appropriate for my child?

What happens if there is a state mandated closing of your studio?
If there is a mandated rollback in reopening rules for our county or statewide and we would be required to reduce the number of students per classroom, we will go to an A/B Schedule for all classes. Students for each class would be split into either A or B group, with the A group coming to in person classes and the B group attending class live online at home by way of a live video feed from the studio. The next week, groups would switch with B group attending in person and A group attending class live online.
