More general information about the 2024 Fall Session can be found on the CLASSES page.

 

Registration for Classes: We strongly encourage registration for fall classes, since we need to know you're coming in order to keep our classes going! Drop-ins are always welcome, too... but if you know you'll be around, please register! And if you are new to us, or aren’t sure you are on a teacher’s email list, please email us to be sure.

 

Class Cards are available for adult/teen fall classes ($22/class by paying for either 5 or 10 classes in advance). Class Cards are available online; 5-class cards are good for 4 months from purchase date, and 10-class cards for good for 8 months from purchase date. Single-class drop-in is $23.

 

Class Levels

• It is common for students to stay in a level for a year or more. Please consult with your teacher on which level is right for you.
• Also, please note that the class level is not equivalent to number of years of dance classes! If you are unsure what level to take, please send an email or call us at 202-722-1625.

• Note: Every teacher has a different teaching style and exact levels vary from teacher to teacher. Intro is the very beginning level (e.g., never put on tap shoes or haven’t tapped in a long, long time); 1, 1/2, 2, and 2/3 can be considered advanced beginning to intermediate; 3 is intermediate; 4 is intermediate/advanced; and 5 is advanced.

 Things You Need to Know for our In Person and Online Fall Session 2022:

• Payments accepted online through our MindBody registration portal. We strongly prefer everything to be online and in advance. If you do send us a check, there will be a $25 fee for returned checks.
• No partial payments will be accepted without advance approval.
• Tuition is nonrefundable after the first day of class.
• Missed classes from the Fall Session can be made up during the Fall Session in any other class level equal to yours, or in the first 2 months of the Winter/Spring Session.
• You can also request the video from your missed session if you can't make up a class.
• We still offer classes online and in person. You will receive an email each week reminding you of your class and containing a Zoom link should you wish to use it. We record each class and make the video available on request to those who pay for the class.
• The KOW Student Handbook can be downloaded here.

NOTE: Classes are subject to cancellation if under-enrolled.

 

Unless you tell us otherwise, pictures and videos will be taken from time to time in the studio for promotional purposes. Registration will also automatically sign you up for our newsletter, if you do not already receive it. (You can opt out simply by unsubscribing.)
