Policies & Registration

Mission
The MJCC School of Dance has been carefully planned to provide each student quality instruction in a warm and creative environment. Emphasis will be placed on the development of technique and musicality while improving coordination, confidence, discipline, perseverance, grace and poise allowing each student to complete the program with the feeling of personal success.

Notices
Important information is published in the JCC Scene, posted on the website and on the School of Dance bulletin board outside the dance studio and e-mailed to you. Please make sure you notify us of changes in address or e-mail. We need your updated e-mail address! 

Snow

Attendance
In order to progress at a student’s best rate, regular attendance is very important. Students must come to class on time, dressed in class uniform and ready to dance. 80% attendance or better is required for participation in the Spring Dance Performances. Lack of consistent training and proper warm-up at the beginning of class can cause injuries. Students over 10 minutes late for class will be asked to sit and observe.

Registration
The MJCC School of Dance offers classes in ballet, pointe, contemporary, jazz, tap, hip-hop and classes for adults. Classes are open for members and non-members and listed in the JCC August or December Scene and on the dance page at www.jccmemphis.org. Register online or at the MJCC front desk. Early registration is recommended, as class size is limited. A minimum is required. Students desiring registration after the start of the semester must consult MJCC Dance Faculty.

Tuition Policies
Enrollment in the School of Dance is on a semester or session basis. Tuition is payable at the time of registration and should be paid prior to attending classes. There are NO REFUNDS after the semester has begun.
