Our Class Policies
Attendance & Make-Up Classes
​
Students are required to inform the Teacher/ Instructor in advance if they will be absent from class. Classes missed without prior notification to the office may not be rescheduled. Should a student miss a class and wish to arrange a makeup session, they must contact the Teacher/ Instructor in advance to coordinate a suitable day and time for a comparable class. Makeup classes must be scheduled within the same dance season as the missed session and cannot be carried over to subsequent seasons.
​
Punctuality
​
Students are expected to maintain regular attendance and punctuality in their classes. Those arriving after the warm-up period may be asked by the instructor to observe the class at their discretion. For minors, parents or guardians are responsible for picking them up within 5 minutes of the class ending. The Leap2Dance LLC assumes no liability for the safety of students who are not promptly collected by their parents or guardians.
​
Cancelled Classes
​
During the winter months, classes may be subject to cancellation due to inclement weather. Please note that we do not adhere to the school closings of either Prince William County or Manassas City. Instead, an independent decision will be made before class starts, and a cancellation notice will be posted on our website once the decision is finalized. We kindly request that you check our website and contact the teacher or instructor before leaving your home to verify whether your/ your child’s class has been canceled. Any classes canceled due to weather conditions may be rescheduled as previously outlined.
​
Holidays
​
Holiday schedules are detailed in the calendar on our website. Please note that classes scheduled on holidays are factored into the payment schedule and thus cannot be rescheduled.
​
Student Attire
​
We kindly request that students and parents/guardians ensure that outfits worn to LLC's dance classes are simple, modest, non-offensive, and culturally appropriate. Given the diverse range of ages, religions, cultures, and backgrounds among our students, it is essential to maintain a safe and respectful environment for all. Additionally, we ask that attire be suitable for unrestricted movement and conducive to a focused learning environment.
​
Student Performance
​
Our annual student performance coincides with the Nepali festivals of Dashain and Tihar, celebrated around the same time each year. Once the exact date is confirmed, Leap2Dance LLC management will promptly notify all students and parents/guardians of minor students. Participation in this event is highly encouraged, though entirely optional. For further information, please visit our website's dedicated page on the recital.

Coronavirus/COVID-19 & Other Pandemic or Emergency Policies
​
Online/Zoom Classes
​
In the event of a pandemic or other emergency necessitating the transition of Leap2Dance LLC's in-person classes to online/Zoom format, our refund and withdrawal policies will remain in effect. We kindly request that the same notice period for withdrawals be adhered to, should such a conversion occur.
