** The studio is only open when classes are in session. Please Contact Us before dropping in!**
Parking
If using the front lot, you may use any space marked for Unit 5. If using the back lot, please enter and exit directly past our sign. We have neighbors - the roundabout is NOT a thru-way. Please drive slowly and carefully, and park with your head/tail lights to the treeline. Do not park along the curb behind the building, or next to the apartment/garage behind us.
See our Location page for additional details and a map!
Arrival/Class/Dismissal
Our lobby is closed, and for students only - your teacher will open the door for admission beginning 10 minutes before your class time.
Dismissal happens promptly at class end.

Dress Code
The Moving Company maintains a dress code to encourage an optimal learning environment. Dancers must be in the proper dance wear, shoes, and have their hair secured to participate in class. Please see Class Attire for full details.
Restroom
Dancers are strongly encouraged to use the restroom before arriving at the studio/before participating in class.
Tardiness
Students should arrive in the 10 minute window before their class begins. Dance classes progress in a very specific order to ensure a safe and thorough warm-up. Students who are more than 10 minutes late to class may be asked to observe.
Food and Drink
Students in classes that last 45 minutes or longer should bring a water bottle - it will stay with their belongings in the lobby.
No food is allowed in the dance studio itself, snacks may be finished in the lobby.
