Introducing The Dance Refinery Staff
Welcome aboard to our new staff members (in bold Below)
Assistants
The Dance Refinery @tdrdance @TDRdance
The current student receives a one time $40 credit on monthly tuition (after the new student has paid in full for two full
months of class).
A new student is defined as one who has NEVER been enrolled at The Dance Refinery. The new student will receive HALF
OFF the Registration fee and a one time 10% discount at The Dance Depot.
In order to receive your credit for the current Fall/Winter/Spring Session, referred students must be registered by April 1st. Any students
referred after April 1st may fill out a referral card and take advantage of the program when they re-register the following Fall Session. Due
to the short length of the Summer Session, we do not offer the referral program in the Summer.
The Referral form MUST be turned in at Registration by the new family. You are allowed only one referral PER NEW FAMILY.
Bring a friend to class—you can carpool or just meet here and visit while your children are in class. Check out the November Newsletter where we will recognize those families that have already referred friends to TDR for the Fall 19-20 season!
We appreciate your support and your patronage!

RECITAL VIDEOS
If you ordered a Recital DVD or BluRay and have not picked it up, please stop by the front office
and pick yours up today!
PLEASE NOTE:
Please be aware of these changes and check with the office before taking a make-up lesson as some of the classes
have changed since the original printing of our Fall/Winter/Spring Schedule.
CLASS NOTES There are still openings in Dance, Gymnastics,
& Gladiator classes Perhaps now that everyone has adjusted to their new school and activity schedules,
you can add another tumbling or dance class. Remember, three is the magic number - half off your child’s third class or half off a third child’s class lessons (applied to the child with the lowest monthly
tuition.) Please note, the list of full classes changes daily, as families add new classes or switch classes. Please check with the office staff for the most
current information.
