Combination classes require a deposit of $100.00 for 2 costumes. Costume balances are due February. The total balance per costume is approximately $140.00 - $150.00 each. If a dancer decides to quit the studio or is dismissed by the studio after the costume is paid in full there will be no refund given and the costume will be considered studio property.
