Tuition also includes 2 pairs of tights per class per year! You can claim them whenever you like but we suggest saving them for performance time.
Not included:
Costumes for jazz and contemporary performance. (Fees are based on our current pricing from costume companies and average $60 - $80 each. This fee will be due April 1 and fundraising opportunities are available to offset the expense.)
Dress code/uniform items.
Private lessons.
Student company participation fee of $100 due November 1 and May 1. We offer two easy fundraisers to help students cover this cost without paying out of pocket.

Monthly installments are the same each month regardless of the number of classes in that particular month. See above for why!

Policies & Procedures
Genesee Dance Theatre accepts payment in the form of cash, check, ACH bank transfer, debit and credit cards. We now also accept Amazon Pay, CashApp, Link, Apple Pay and Google Pay.
Clients enrolled in the monthly installment plan are required to keep a credit card or debit card on file with us. This card will be billed the 6th of each month unless payment through another method is received in advance.
If your card is declined, a second attempt will be made in 48 hours. After the second attempt, we will contact you for an alternate form of payment.
A $10 late fee will be added to your balance for every week tuition remains past due. Students with accounts more than 30 days overdue will not be permitted to attend class, rehearsals or performances unless an arrangement is made with the office.
Genesee Dance Theatre operates on a strict no cash refund policy.
Are there additional performance or costume fees?
We do not charge performance fees for our regular class programs.
There is a $100 company participation fee per performance cycle (due Nov. 1 and May 1). We encourage company members to participate in fundraising to offset this cost and more. A fall popcorn fundraiser will be held in late September with a spring fundraiser in 2026 to be announced.
One ballet costume is included in our tuition pricing for ballet classes. Costumes for jazz, contemporary, solos or duets are now billed separately based on our cost at the time of ordering, not to exceed $80 per costume. Students are encouraged to participate in fundraisers to offset these costs.
