Studio guidelines, policies, tuition, and fees are subject to change. Please contact the studio for the most up-to-date information.

MMCA Studio Guidelines

Students are expected to be kind to their classmates, themselves and MMCA staff. Dance class is a fun, safe and welcoming environment for all!
Students are expected to be ready for their classes. Please arrive dressed, according to the dress code (see website), and with your hair either in a bun or ponytail. Parents of younger students please make sure your dancer has used the potty prior to class so we don't start a potty train in the middle of class.
On the rare occasion that you may be late, please be quiet and courteous when entering the classroom. For dancers ages 7 and older, if arriving more than 10 minutes late, the dancer will have to observe the class as they will have missed the warm up.
No gum, food, or drinks other than water are allowed in the studio. If your child brings any drink other than water (Gatorade, juice, flavored water) they will not be permitted to drink it.
Please do not allow your child to bring toys or games to class. They are a distraction and will be left in the lobby until the end of class.
No cell phone during class. There will be a safe place for dancers to keep their phones in until the end of class. If a dancer is preoccupied by their smart watch, we will ask them to take off their watch until the end of class.
Parents are not allowed to stay in the studio during classes. It causes a distraction for all the children in the class. We will have a video system for you to watch your child while in class.
Please make every effort to be on time in picking up your child. If you are going to be late, please contact the studio immediately.
Students will be able to enter the studio lobby ten minutes before their scheduled class time. If you need to drop off early on occasion, please contact the studio so we can be informed.
