Mission Statement
Report
Our mission at the Sue Hewitt Dance Studio is to teach dance in a inclusive, positive, and nurturing environment.
To foster this positive environment we focus on creating an atmosphere where each dancer can learn to express themselves through movement in a safe and supportive manner.
Through age appropriate music, performance opportunities and a focus on movement to foster self-improvement we hope our dancers develop a love for the art of dance.
Our dancers take class in a group of students placed by approximate age rather than tested skill level.

Dress Code
Report
Please note that the Dress Code at SHDS will be strictly enforced to ensure the most optimal progression of all of our dancers.
At Sue Hewitt Dance studio we believe following the dress code provides discipline, ensures no distractions during class, and enhances movement and body lines.
Proper dance attire enables the teacher to see the dancers' positions and movement in order to give necessary corrections for the benefit of the dancer's education.

Student Policies
Report
Students are expected to attend their classes on a regular basis.
Regular attendance is necessary in order to advance through the levels of study.
If students desire to perform in the dwhas, recital, or other opportunities, absences leading up to the performance are highly discouraged.
Dancers can make up a missed class by attending an alternative class of similar age.
We understand certain sports or other commitments can be a direct conflict with classes.
We will find an alternative option.
Starting classes months late is not in the best interest of the dancer or fair to the rest of the dancers in the class.
