Dragonfly operates on monthly enrollments. Dragonfly students are committing to a monthly enrollment with a monthly tuition draft. Dragonfly models the same tuition enrollment system as most gymnastics and dance studios. By pulling monthly tuition we are able to provide discounted rates for classes and the ability for students to reserve and confirm their placement in a class without having to re-register monthly, (which is beneficial because we do run waiting lists on many of our classes).
We have three draft dates depending on your enrollment date. Tuition may be pulled on the 5th, 10th, or 25th of each month. Tuition drafts are pulled in advance, for the upcoming month.
Cancelations must be made in writing to office@DragonflyAerialCO.com by the 15th of the month for the upcoming month. A late payment fee of $25 will be assessed if payment is not received within 10 days of the due date.
*Dragonfly does offer a select menu of drop-in class options where there is space available and drop in’s will not disrupt the flow of weekly curriculum progressions. You may register for these select classes through the “events” calendar. Advanced level classes are available for a fee of $30. First time flyer and intro classes are available for $19.
Students may make up one absence per class, per quarter, and makeups will expire in two months, if not used.
We are excited to offer makeups in classes with space available, but makeups must be scheduled through your portal in advance. To request a makeup be added to your portal, email office@dragonflyaerialco.com.
Please, keep in mind your student’s age and level when selecting a class for their makeup. Makeups are automatically forfeited if enrollment is terminated. Students are not allowed to use their makeups once they are no longer enrolled.
Withdrawals must be submitted in writing by emailing office@dragonflyaerialco.com by the 15th of the month for tuition draws to be halted and students dis-enrolled for the upcoming month. This policy provides adequate notification to re-assign or alter class schedules for the upcoming month, if necessary, in response to cancelations.
Students will not be credited, or reimbursed if they neglect to cancel outside of policy. We commit to our students and instructors a monthly class schedule. Due to our low student/teacher ratio, there are times when just two cancellation in a class are enough for us to need to cancel the entire class section. 15 days allows us to make accommodations if need be and prepare instructors and students for potential schedule changes.
Not showing up for classes, halting tuition payments or removing the card on file prior to the tuition draft, does not constitute a withdrawal.
Due to the diversity of our classes and our current full schedule of classes leaving little availability for added class times, we are not able to provide makeup classes due to weather closures, unless a class is missed more than once in a month. We may schedule additional weekend open gym time for students to get their training hours in that week but it will be case specific and on availability. An e-mail will be sent if this is an option that week.
Dragonfly students are assessed a yearly Equipment Maintenance Fund Fee of $60. Similar to the yearly registration fee with dance studios and gymnastics facilities, (although we don’t feel you should have to pay to “register” !) Dragonfly takes pride in our exceptional facility and all that it offers. This yearly “equipment” fee allows us to continue to update, maintain and add new equipment and replace components like our Safety Lower-out system, replace fabrics and hardware and introduce new apparatus or repair and update the carpet bonded foam flooring or mats. This fee offsets the costs for items that can not be maintained solely on our reasonable tuition fees with our low student/teacher ratio and high operating costs.
Family and friends of students are welcome to view classes from the designated observer area. Please keep the volume level to a minimum and do not interrupt or shout out to your child or the instructor during class.
Youth students are not permitted to run back and forth from their class to their parent in the observer area. Please have them bring their water with them to class or to their cubby.
Out of respect to our students and the safety of minors, please refrain from filming classes. Students in class are allowed to film specific skills, with the permission of the instructor, but “letting the camera simply roll” is not permitted. You may ask the instructor at the beginning of class if you would like them to reserve a moment at the end of class for a photo or two.
- Be on time. Students arriving 10 minutes late or more will be directed to schedule a make-up class. If students miss the warm-up portion of class, they will not be permitted to attend the remainder of class.
- Dress appropriately. No short short shorts (hot pants), low cut tank tops, or bare midriffs will be permitted in fabric classes.
- Cell phone use is not permitted on the studio floor during class. Please take calls outside.
- Be aware of personal hygiene: clean feet, coverage of underarms when possible, and no long nails or unnatural nails.
- No jewelry, with the exception of studded earrings, unless cleared by the instructor.
- Hair should be tied back and in a bun if possible.
- Wash/sanitize hands when entering class to reduce exposure to contact illnesses.
- Do not come to class ill. You will be sent home! (Yes, even if you sanitize.) We will gladly issue you additional makeup classes.
- Students are not permitted to work beyond the instructor’s curriculum. If you saw it on YouTube, please talk to the instructor before attempting to execute it. They may have progressions that need to be mastered prior to your YouTube goal skill.
- Students are not permitted to instruct other students (with the exception of professional level classes) or work beyond the instructor’s perceived point of exhaustion.
- Students are only permitted on the apparatus while under the direct supervision of their instructor.
- Reckless behavior will result in dismissal from class. This includes doing your “own thing” when the instructor is leading the class in a theme of instruction.
- No gum.
- If on the ground, please be patient and do not interrupt the instructor while they work with another student.
- Students may be paired up in classes at a point, be a considerate partner!
- Tape over cuts or abrasions. This means tape over bandages covering abrasions.
- Rock or chalk rosin only for youth classes. (No spray)
- Do not enter through the back “Staff Door.”
Have fun and root for each other! This is your class and you are here to FLY!
Please e-mail us directly if you have any questions or concerns about policies, enrollments, or tuition fees.
Our coaches will not be able to help you with administrative questions in class.
Dragonfly tuition is based on a four week month and tuition draws are at a consistent monthly fee, designed for committed yearly students. We find a monthly flat fee makes life easier than a constantly changing fee or a larger per session fee.
Our monthly tuition fee does not increase the four months of the year where there are 5 weeks of classes (or increase for Monday and Tuesday classes where there are 5 months of the year that would receive 5 weeks of classes. These no-fee classes roll over to credit for Holiday closures where there are no makeups provided.
Show days: Approximately three times a year, the studio will have a weekend show closure for a DAC Performance, that will affect some weekend classes. Students with a class scheduled on a performance day will be offered a make-up class or open gym session in lieu of their regularly scheduled class. Students are encouraged to attend the shows and support fellow artists. We find the shows to be inspirational and enjoyable for students passionate about aerial and we may utilize the experience in the following class.
