Welcome to the Caulfield School of Dance web site. We are currently developing a new web site which we expect to be up and running in the Summer of 2009. You can still view our old web site, but much of the information is obsolete. Please feel free to contact the School as per the information below if you have any questions. We are also offering Summer Dance Samplers, Technique Maintenance Classes, and Summer Intensives - for details see below.
For students aged nine and up with at least three year’s experience, our Technique Maintenance Classes are ballet barre and centre, Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings through July and August.
For students who have experience and want to continue to improve, the summer break is too long for the hard earned technical gains of the September to June year to be maintained. Home practice is still very important over the summer. Our Summer Technique Maintenance and Pointe Classes are a great way to maintain and even improve technique before the next year of programs begins.
Summer 2009 Technique Maintenance & Pointe Classes Mondays*, Wednesdays, and Fridays, from Friday, July 3 to Friday, August 21
Technique: 10 to 11:30am
Drop-in $16.50 or save with a package of 10 for $150

You may register in person at the School. We are happy to help you select courses and programs. Our preferred method of payment is cheque but we also accept cash.
You will need to fill out the student information section of the Registration Form and a Student/Parent & School Agreement.
A non-refundable registration fee of $30.00 secures your place in class helps offset the administrative costs for your enrolment and year ahead.
We have produced a Guidebook for every family who comes to the School.
This one time purchase is $5.00 and gives our School Rules, and answers (we hope!) all your questions on hair and attire for classes, stage make-up, the criteria for scholarships, and so much more.
We add the Important Dates Sheet [link to Important Dates in CURRENT INFORMATION ] to your Guidebook each year informing you of our Parent Viewing Days, Hair & Stage Make-Up Seminars Week, Rehearsal and Show Dates etc.. Please bring the Guidebook back to us when you register each year and we will update it at no charge.
Tuition is based on the full September to June year, NOT by the individual class, nor by the month.
Students are required to make a full year’s commitment as all programs are progressive.
If you wish, you may give three payments with cheques dated the 1st of September, December, and April. A cheque processing fee of $5 will apply.
If you wish, you may give nine payments dated the 1st of each month, September to May. A cheque processing fee of $15 will apply.
A minimum $50.00 costume deposit is required for each performing course your child is registered in. Some costumes are rentals, and some you will be required to buy. Costumes may require minor alterations/additions for which you will be responsible, Your deposit is used towards the purchase of materials and design costs for the costumes used in the year-end show.
If you withdraw from a course prior to materials being purchased, or the last class in December, (whichever comes first) part or all of the deposit may be returned to you. However, if your withdrawal is after the costume has been started, you will be responsible for the full cost of the completed costume. Please note that the costume deposit is only a deposit, the average cost per costume is $60.00 to $100.00. When costumes are complete, any unused portion of your deposit will be credited to you (people usually apply credits to purchasing tickets for the year-end show) and any costs not covered by deposits will be applied to your account.
Absences may lead to exclusion from performing. When a student is excluded from performing, everyone in his or her piece and the instructor are adversely affected and extra rehearsal time is usually required. A $50 rehearsal deposit will be required at registration for every performing student. If your (child’s) lack of attendance necessitates extra time to a cost exceeding $50, you will be responsible for the cost. This deposit is returned at year-end if unused.
