Understanding Your Tuition and Studio Policies

At Music in Motion, we’re committed to making your experience transparent, supportive, and easy to navigate. Here's what your tuition includes, what’s billed separately, and important policies that help us run smoothly.

What’s Included in Your Tuition

Your monthly tuition covers more than just weekly classes! Here’s what you can expect as part of your enrollment:

  • Season Opening Gift
    A small token to celebrate the start of each new season.

  • Stage-Ready Media Package for both the Winter Showcase and End-of-Season Recital, including:

    • Recital T-Shirt

    • Group Class Photo

    • Professional Recital Photos

    • Professional Recital Video

    • Recital Good Luck Gift

  • Access to Spot TV App
    Live studio viewing of your child’s class from your phone.


What’s Not Included in Tuition

Some items are billed separately to allow for flexibility:

  • Performance Tickets
    Tickets to all recitals and showcases are sold separately. Sale dates and ticket access details are shared well in advance.

  • Costumes
    Costumes for all recitals and performances are billed separately. Rental options are available to keep costs manageable.


Tuition & Withdrawal Policy

  • Due Date: Tuition is processed on the 1st of each month.

  • Season Structure: Tuition is divided into monthly installments for a 36-week season (September–June). There are no adjustments for holidays or breaks.

  • Payment Options:

    • Monthly: Default, includes standard 3% card processing fee.

    • Semester: Reduced 2% card fee.

    • Full Year by Check: Receive a 5% discount when paid in full by check.

  • Late Fees: A $25 late fee applies to payments received after the 7th.

  • Withdrawing: To stop classes and cancel tuition, email office@musicinmotionva.com at least 14 days before the 1st of the month. If notice is not given, the next month’s tuition will be processed and is non-refundable.


Class Changes & Additions

  • Changing Classes: Class changes are allowed September through December. We recommend staying in a class for at least one full month before switching. Mid-month changes will begin on the next billing cycle—there are no pro-rated refunds.

  • Adding a Class: Want to try something new?

    • Book a free trial anytime.

    • Enrollment remains open year-round, as space allows.

    • Watch for our Try Any Class weeks—fun opportunities to explore different styles!

    • Need help deciding? Just ask—we’re happy to recommend classes that fit your dancer’s goals.


Make-Up Classes & Weather Closings

  • Make-Up Classes:

  • Inclement Weather:

    • We typically follow Virginia Beach Public School closures.

    • However, we may choose to open independently if road conditions near the studio are safe.

    • Updates are posted to Facebook, Instagram, and via email.

    • Email is the best way to reach us during weather closures.


Please let us know if you ever have questions—our goal is to support you and your dancer every step of the way!
