You may be looking at the offerings of our studio or other studios and see an array everything from a drop in class to classes that run a full year. It’s enough to make your head spin! So we are here to break down the difference between the two in our studio in order to make your decision easier.
| Drop In Class | Regularly Scheduled class | |
| Commitment | No commitment- come and go as you please. | Typically a month to month commitment with the expectation you are going to try for the entire 10 months. |
| Lesson Plan | Can vary depending on age of participants, will usually fall into a middle age category. | Researched curriculum with a clear progression through the program, and consistent themes and prop rotation. |
| Participants | Can vary from 1 to 10 depending on the week, so interaction and socialization amounts can vary. | Set number of participants which helps foster connections, interactions and socialization among peers. |
| Price | Is slightly cheaper, but there are no discounts for other events, no birthday party discounts, no free events or “fun weeks” that we have studio wide. | Is slightly more expensive but includes discounts on studio events, discounted birthday parties, early registration for classes and events, free events for students, small appreciation tokens, and fun weeks at the studio. |
| Performance | No | Optional but all dancers age 3 and up are invited to be a part of recital. |
To sum up drop in classes are meant to be a once in a while option when you are looking for something new to try, something to do or can not make a long term commitment, not in place of a regularly scheduled class. Either way we hope you make it in and dance with us soon!
