Cash, Credit, and Check payments can be paid during office hours. Checks and money orders can be dropped at the payment box located inside the North Beach studio or mailed to: P.O.

Tuition Cost:
Cost is determined by the number of hours danced per week, per student, therefore pricing fluctuates depending on the classes in which a student is enrolled. For that reason, specific pricing is available only upon request. Please contact the office at 301-855-0282 or northbeachschoolofdance@comcast.net for more information.
Tuition will be due in four installments*; due dates are outlined on the studio calendar and in every newsletter.

Late Fee:
A grace period of 5 consecutive days will be honored. Payments received after that 5 day grace period will result in a $25 administrative fee regardless of reason.
