Class Policies

  • Refunds for Missed Classes: There will be no refunds for individual classes that you are unable to attend. However, you may substitute any of our other classes for the one missed. Talk to us if illness or injury forces you to entirely drop out of a class.
  • All class fees must be paid prior to the first attended class of a series. Payments may be made by personal check made out to Josephine Sarnelli, or in cash.
  • NO STREET SHOES on the studio floor. That means that you should not walk in wearing the shoes you intend to dance in. This is standard protocol at all dance studios. No exceptions, please.
  • Belly dance classes are for women only. All other classes are open to both men and women.
  • Partners are not required for ballroom sessions.
  • INCLEMENT WEATHER: Studio closings due to weather, illness or other reasons will be posted on the banner of the Small Planet Dancers web site. Classes missed due to such reasons will be rescheduled for a later date.
  • CANCELLATIONS (applies to private lessons only): A minimum one hour notice is required for cancellation of scheduled private lessons. A cancellation fee equal to 50% of the lesson price will be charged when the minimum notice is not given.
