It's easy to start lessons at our studio!
 
1. Call or e-mail (dansir@earthlink.net) and communicate directly with Richard Hirschl to find available lesson time & days. Some lesson times might be closed, full, taking sign-ups, or have prerequisites.
 
2. Just come in about 15 minutes prior to your first lesson. We'll have you fill out the paperwork (which only takes 6 minutes). If you're under 18 years old, we'll need a parent/guardian signature to get you started.
 
3. For students with prior ballet experience, we give a placement evaluation at no charge or obligation.  (If you need more than one placement lesson, or wish to try out more than one lesson, the single lesson charge applies).We will assess the student to find out which levels will give them the most value, challenge, and opportunity for advancement. This placement evaluation is usually done by Richard Hirschl personally.
 
We move students up on an individual basis, rather than by group or age. NOTICE: Starting January, 2010, we will start our "trimester" enrollment program.  The lesson curriculum will be based on three separate seasons (January to June, July to September, and October to December), and all students (new & ongoing) must register before the beginning of each season for the lessons they are taking.  There is no charge for this procedure.  Students will only be allowed to make changes every three month period (January 1st, April 1st, July 1st and October 1st)
 
You must enroll in the lessons you are taking before you can start or change any lesson.  Check with Mr. Hirschl or the teacher for details.
 
Basic of dress code at HSDA:

1. For ladies in levels “Preparatory” through level 6 ballet: solid color black leotard (no prints, skirts, attached or otherwise), pink tights, and pink ballet shoes.

2. No baggy clothing. Tight-fitting, solid black dance warm-ups may be worn at teacher discretion.

3. For tap, lyrical, hip-hop, jazz and adult levels of dance: solid colored tight-fitting dance attire.

When you sign up you'll get a studio Policy Sheet that will explain everything you need to know about tuition and general studio policies.  if you ever have any questions, comments or concerns, contact Mr. Hirschl personally & directly at your earliest convenience!
