Register for Dance

2026/27 Class schedule

Class schedule current as of September 13, 2026. Please log into the parent portal for current class availability and to register on the waitlist for any full class.

Dress code

Please note the change for Graded-level ballet classes for the 2026/27 season, who will now be wearing canvas ballet shoes instead of leather. Under 6 ballet classes (Kinderdance, Pre-Primary, and Primary) will continue to wear leather shoes.

How to register for classes

Registration at GLS happens solely online. Families returning to the studio will receive pre-approved classes in the summer for the fall, and are pre-registered in subsequent terms. Dancers move up levels on a yearly basis every fall, or by a teacher’s recommendation.

Families pay a $25 admin fee for each dancer annually due upon registration in the fall. This year, payment happens directly after choosing your classes as part of our new system.

Trial classes: At this time due to the popularity of our programming, we do not offer any trial classes. Please contact us for more information on finding the right class for your dancer!

Visit our parent portal to register for classes online

Registration for our fall term opens on July 28, 2026. Dancers currently registered in the fall term will be automatically registered in the same classes for our winter term. New dancers for the winter term will be able to register on our parent portal starting late November 2026. We encourage new families to create a parent portal account in advance, as accounts must be manually approved by our team.

After the 3rd week of classes, no refunds will be given. Unfortunately, we are unable to give refunds for classes missed due to events outside of our control, such as inclement weather.

Dancers are automatically registered in the winter and spring terms if they are registered in the fall. We send families a notification email prior to the end of fall term requesting that dancers who are not returning notify us as soon as possible.

Make-up classes

Feeling sick happens, we get it! In order to provide the best class experience, we ask that parents email the studio in advance if their dancer is going to be missing class. Make-up classes will be available at the studio’s discretion based on class level and size, exam preparations, recital choreography, and/or other factors.

We will do our best to accommodate dancers who miss classes, however who consistently miss classes or do not notify the studio promptly of absences may have future requests for make-up classes denied.

At times, students may be instructed to attend a make-up or additional class directly by teachers. Communication for make-up classes from teachers will happen through the studio email system.
