Membership & Payments

• A Dance 4 Life membership provides ongoing access to lessons and services through a subscription model.
• Memberships are not pay-per-lesson arrangements for included services.
• Memberships include a weekly lesson quota (private lessons and/or group classes), depending on your tier.
• Memberships include access to the online video portal.

Subscription Payments

• Membership subscription fees are charged fortnightly in advance via direct debit.
• If applicable, classes or services taken outside your weekly quota are charged separately.

Active & Inactive Memberships

• An active membership indicates your subscription is running, otherwise it is inactive.
• Quota, services and makeup credits only remain available if a membership subscription is active.

Minimum Term

• All memberships have a minimum 4-week term.

Annual Membership Fee

• An Annual Membership Fee applies for each new calendar year.
• For most members, this is processed as a continuation of the regular subscription during the End-of-Year Break.
• For members who’ve temporarily suspended during the End-of-Year Break, this is charged as a flat annual fee instead.
• New members are not charged at sign-up, but the fee applies when continuing into a new calendar year.

Private Lessons

• Weekly private lessons are included as part of your membership and can only be used while your membership subscription is active.
