Dance Tuition & Fees
Transparent pricing designed to support quality instruction and balanced commitments.
At Danse Élan, tuition reflects a thoughtfully structured program centered on consistent instruction, age-appropriate training, and meaningful artistic experiences. Our goal is to offer families clarity, flexibility, and confidence when choosing the level of commitment that feels right.
How Tuition at Danse Élan Is Structured
Tuition at Danse Élan is based on monthly enrollment and weekly class commitment, rather than per-class attendance. This structure allows us to maintain consistent class length, instructional quality, and a stable learning environment throughout the season.
Tuition is calculated based on a 32-week season of instruction and is divided into nine equal monthly payments from September through May. Families do not pay for holiday weeks when the studio is closed, allowing tuition to remain consistent and predictable throughout the season.
Our classes are longer in length and led by certified educators, with an emphasis on steady progress, healthy training, and a positive classroom culture.
Because dance programs vary widely in structure, class length, and expectations, we encourage families to consider the full scope of instruction when comparing tuition.
