The studio is open Monday through Thursday 4pm to 8pm and Saturday mornings 9am to 12pm. Please be sure to visit the link to our Holiday and Vacation calendar.

Our dance season runs from the beginning of September after Labor Day through the end of June.

Enrollment closes effective January 1. Costumes and recital preparations typically occur during this time. Additionally, skills and technique will have been taught since September, so students who join late in the season will be behind. Out of fairness to our students and teachers, it is important to begin as early in the season as possible.

Tuition payments are processed on the first of every month. All of our families are required to be on our autopay program within The Studio Director.

The recital is held in May. The date, show times and details vary from year to year. Miss Val will send a detailed email with all pertinent information regarding the recital once the date and details are finalized.

We hold a summer dance program through the whole month of July. The studio is closed in August.

Soles Dance Academy follows the South Kingstown School District Holiday Calendar. Our Holiday and Vacation Closures can be found on our website. Link to our Holiday Closure schedule.

• Dancers must have their hair pulled back at all times.

Make-up classes are not offered for student absences. This is to ensure appropriate class size ratios and overall consistency.
