Embrace Grace, Elegance, and Artistry in Every Move
By enrolling in Exclusive Dance programs, dancers and their guardians agree to adhere to the terms and conditions outlined in this document. These terms ensure a clear understanding of the expectations between the studio and its members, helping maintain a high level of commitment, safeguard the well-being of all participants, and uphold the values of the Exclusive Dance community.
Regular attendance is crucial to the success of both individual dancers and the team as a whole. Dancers are expected to attend all rehearsals, performances, and events as outlined in the schedule provided.
In the event that a dancer is unable to attend a scheduled rehearsal, at least one week’s notice is required. Exceptions are made in cases of unforeseen illness or emergencies, in which case notification must be provided as soon as possible.
If a dancer is unable to attend due to illness, parents/guardians must notify the studio by phone or email at the earliest opportunity. A medical certificate may be requested for extended absences.
We encourage dancers to continue developing their skills through various forms of training. However, all dancers must prioritise their commitments to Exclusive Dance programs.
Dancers may participate in classes or workshops at other studios, provided that these activities do not interfere with their commitment to Exclusive Dance rehearsals, performances, or team activities.
Participation in other competitive teams or training programs that conflict with Exclusive Dance rehearsals, competitions, or performances is prohibited, unless explicitly approved in writing by Exclusive Dance management.
Parents/guardians must provide current medical information about the dancer, including any medical conditions, allergies, or injuries that may affect participation in dance activities.
Parents/guardians authorize Exclusive Dance to seek emergency medical treatment for the dancer if a parent/guardian cannot be reached promptly in the event of an emergency.

Any extra charges accumulated throughout the term (e.g., competition fees, merchandise, or additional classes) will be included in the final debit for that term.

DSP Merchant Services accepts a range of payment methods, including credit card and direct debit, offering flexibility for all customers.
If a payment fails to process, families will be notified immediately. Any failed payments must be resolved within 7 days to avoid late fees or suspension from classes and events.
By enrolling in DSP Merchant Services, customers agree to the regular payment schedule and acknowledge that failure to comply may result in additional fees or termination of services provided by Exclusive Dance.
Participation in required competitions, performances, and events is determined by class enrollment. While these requirements are communicated as early as possible, schedule changes may occur due to external factors, such as competition adjustments or exam schedules.
Participation in competitions may incur additional expenses, such as entry fees, travel, accommodation, and coaching fees.
