Class Policy
Upon paying for class, you have read and agreed to these terms and conditions
Attire
Be comfortable! Any clothing that will not restrict your movement (shorts, t-shirts, leggings, sweats, leotards) is fine. You may wish to tie a scarf around your hips to show off your movements. We dance in bare feet, socks, or soft-soled dance shoes. Street shoes may not be worn on the dance floor.
Attitude
Come prepared to have fun! As well as learning to dance, it’s a time to focus on YOU. Leave the stresses of work, family, and the world at the door. We are ALL INCLUSIVE. We respect everyone and welcome everyone. We welcome all genders, races, ages, sizes. This is YOUR SAFE SPACE. We will not tolerate any diva attitudes. Also, we shouldn't have to say this but NO ALCOHOL, please.
Attendance/Make-up classes
Should you need to miss a class, there are no make-up classes. You forfeit the cost of your class for the time you've missed. The only time a make-up class will happen is if the instructor cancels the class due to inclement weather. At that time, that class will get added to the end of the schedule.
Referrals and Discounts
Refer a friend, receive $5.00 in Shimmy Bucks (studio “cash”) toward classes or merchandise per future enrolling referral. You may refer as many people as you like. 1 enrolling referral = $5.00
In order to receive your Shimmy bucks, the referral MUST provide us with your name at the time of enrollment. We will not honor the recipient of the Shimmy bucks if the referral informs us AFTER they've paid. This is for future class enrollments, not the current class you are enrolling in. There are NO exceptions.
Guests
At this time, guests are not welcome to observe the class. Participation requires registration. Please do not bring small children to the class.
Cell Phones/Pagers
Cell phones and pagers must function in a silent mode.
Social Networking Sites
We respect our members’ privacy. It is the policy of this studio that contact information and/or photos of a member are not released without the permission of the studio member. This includes, but is not limited to, any internet social networking sites. We ask that you DO NOT record and share any class information on any social media platforms. We do check regularly. Students who fail to adhere to this policy will result in immediate termination from the classes and no refund will be given.
Weather
In the event of inclement weather, you may contact us by phone at 248-266-8070 for an update on class cancellations, Your personal safety is primary, so please do not risk injury to yourself or others if road conditions in your area are difficult. We will always do our best to provide a 12-hour minimum notification via e-mail and on www.7moonsbellydance.com. WE will post on our Facebook website 7 Moons Belly Dance if there is a cancellation. It is the student's responsibility to connect if you are not sure if we are hosting the class.
