Class Placement

The first few weeks in the season will be used as "Placement" classes for each student. Our emphasis at NHPA II is on learning excellent technique, therefore students may be moved up or down in Levels at their teacher's discretion once "placement" classes have been completed. Any student that misses a consecutive 4 weeks of class without notification to an instructor or office manager will be un-enrolled from class.

Dress Code

Please take a moment to review the studio policies & dress code. Please make sure all dancers come to class in Dress Code so that they may learn, and be instructed, properly.
Please click here for more detailed information on the NHPA II Dress Code for both girls and boys.
NHPA II does have a used shoe bin that dancers are welcome to borrow from if they forget their dance shoes or out grown their dance shoes. We encourage the dancers to take responsibility and have the proper shoes for each style of dance they are taking. For Example: If your dancer is taking a Tap class, then they will need to have Tap shoes. So please remind your dancer to come prepared with proper dance attire & shoes for their classes.

Tuition Payments

Tuition is due at your child's first class of each month and a $10 late fee will be added to tuition paid after the 1st class. Tuition is due in full for all months, September thru June. If you need to make payment arrangements, please speak to one of the instructors. We have a Tuition Drop Box located on the wall to the right of the office window for convenient payment drop-off...just please make sure your child's full name is written in the memo if paying by check. We would prefer cash payments to be made to an office administrator or instructor. If you decide to drop cash in the tuition drop box, please make sure it is in a sealed envelope with your child's first AND last name written on it so that the payment is credited to the correct account.

Lobby, Parking, & Restrooms

Our lobby and parking areas are limited in size so please be aware and plan accordingly. You are welcome to drop-off and pick-up for your students' classes.
Also, restrooms are located in each of the dance rooms. We would like to keep class distraction to a minimum so if it is necessary for an observer to use the restroom, please do so between classes instead of during.

Studio Hours of Operation

NHPA II will be open 30 minutes before the first class of each day and will close 15 minutes after the last class of each day. Please plan your drop-off and pick-up of students accordingly.
