Monthly Scheduling
Skaters lesson times with me are sent out on the 15th of each month. It may get sent out earlier if there is a competition or other big things happening around the 15th.
Families have until 3 pm on the 17th of the month to confirm that they agree with the schedule and to pay for their lesson times.
There are no make-up lessons or refunds on lessons skaters do not end up taking. If I need to cancel lessons for some reason (i.e. illness) any missed lesson fees will be carried over to the next month.
If you end up doing any additional lessons with me during a month, that fee must be paid to me prior to the lesson occurring.
Families are strongly encouraged to look at their calendars ahead of the fifteenth to help plan out any lesson times. If your skater is going to be gone, or there is a big change happening in your schedule that could impact the skater’s goals, it is highly encouraged you let me know about it during your annual planning meeting and as soon as you are aware of it.
Current Fees/Tuitions
Families paying monthly for training is similar to my former tuition method, but with now we are breaking down the daily lesson time schedule for each skater. This is to ensure everyone knows what to expect and for there to be flexibility with the finances when need be. For example, if our choreographer is in town, Melissa may find it more important for your skater to do spend time with the choreographer than doing lessons with her. This way, families can stay within budget or can plan ahead for additional expenses.
Private Lessons: $70/hr per skater
Semi-Private Lessons: $40/hr per skater
Small Group Classes: $25/hr per skater (4 skaters in class)
$30/hr per skater (3 skaters in class)
The above fees are the same for on ice and off ice classes.
Travel Fees: The approximate travel fee per skater will be sent out as soon as possible. Once skaters are signed up for the competition, then the total cost per skater will be sent out, and the fee will need to be paid by the deadline on the invoice.
All fees paid to me must be sent via Zelle or Check. If paying in check, it must be physically handed to me at the rink by 3 pm on the 17th of the month.
Other Fees
All other fees and costs in skating families are responsible for paying. This includes, but is not limited to; ice time, costumes, competitions, tests, other coaches and choreographers, workshops, etc. Please be courteous and pay these promptly.
