Be certain to notify the studio if there is to be an extended series of absences. A student is responsible for the entire tuition amount regardless of attendance. Please inform the school in writing if dropping. Once registered, we hold your place in class unless notified otherwise.

  • Observation – Parents are welcomed and encouraged to observe weekly classes from our lobby through the large viewing windows/doors. Parents will not be allowed in the classroom except for designated parent weeks.
  • Each class/camp/workshop has a limited number of openings. All classes fill on a first come, first serve basis. Our class size limits are based on the age group and type of class. Much consideration is given to the size of our classes for optimum technique benefit for each student.
  • There is a recommended dress code in the left column on this page. Please have your child dress accordingly. This dress code encourages unity within our technique classes and offers a non-competitive atmosphere.
  • In the case of bad weather, the Nolte Academy will decide whether or not to hold classes. If unsure, please call the studio and listen to our voicemail or check on our website 2 hours before your class is scheduled to begin.

IF a class has more than 1 snow day, that class will be given a scheduled make-up time/day.
  • Please keep our studio clean! Snacks and water are allowed in the dressing room. Throw away your garbage when you are finished.
