Registration Information Classes are filled as registrations arrive, and class sizes are limited. If a class has filled, we will create a waiting list. Should a space become available, it will be offered to the first person on the waiting list. Please note that there is no guarantee of a place becoming available. Please note: Placement in subsequent terms is not guaranteed unless payment is made before the new term — or the next eight-week block — begins. What happens next? • For new families: You will need to register on our online portal and book a trial class. Simply follow the link, enter your details, and you will see a list of class times suitable for your child’s age. By clicking on your chosen class, you’ll automatically receive a confirmation email. After the trial, we will follow up with you to see if our classes were the right fit for your child. If there is a space available, a class offer will be made. If there is no availability at the time, your child will be kept on our waiting list until the next suitable space opens. https://app.classmanager.com/trials/ultraflex-dance-academy(https://app.classmanager.com/trials/ultraflex-dance-academy) • For returning members: Once you are booked into a class, you do not need to re-register. You are automatically placed into the next term. Two weeks before the new term begins, you will receive an email confirmation with your class details. This email gives you notice if any changes need to be made. Your invoice will also be attached and is due for payment before the term starts.

The annual registration fee of €25 applies for each dancer. Each student's registration fee must be paid before they join the academy. It will secure your place and is NON-refundable.

Why do we have to pay for it? Business costs run over 12 months and our business primarily runs over 10months. There are also outside expenses such as the administrative cost of setting up a student in our studio-class-management system and helps keep your tuition costs lower. The registration fee covers the costs of insurance, software, processing and computer time required to set up a student in the attendance and tuition-billing system. music fees, material and studio communication costs—all separate expenses from class tuition. This also includes Staff Payroll - Insurance - Online Platforms - Administration fees - Booking * Platform fee's - Operational & Booking Systems - Studio Rents - Licences - Training and much more.

If you join after the subscription payment is taken out from your account an add-on fee will be applied to your first subscription payment to cover the classes before this date. Which in turn will mean your first payment will have an add-on and will be higher than the others.

There are no refunds for booked terms.

This is extremely unlikely however we have had this happen on rare occasions and find it extremely unfair as we could have filled the student's places with notice and would not be left at a loss considering the cost of running a class. Students who book a place and leave without paying will be charged €10 for every class attended and will also be invoiced for a month's membership from the date you give notice that you wish to leave the academy. Please note no discounts will apply to this type of booking.

If a class is cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances a replacement class will be rescheduled. This rescheduled class might not be held on the same day/time or at the same venue as the original class in which you are currently registered. We might also replace a class with online tuition in the event it is deemed unsafe and or a national health risk to our staff & students.

Classes will be cancelled in times of a RED WEATHER WARNING and or where it is deemed as UNSAFE to hold classes. In this situation, we will adhere to the advice of the local Garda, Met Eireann, and our governing bodies. The safety of our students and staff is paramount. In any situation which results in a loss of service/classes, you will be invited to make up sessions once it is deemed safe to return to normal service/classes. We may also transfer sessions to our Online platform at an allocated time in which case classes will continue online until it is deemed safe to return to classes.

Online classes will be recorded will be stored in our academy for those who can not attend online due to poor signal or if you can not attend your class for any other reason. Unfortunately, we can not offer a refund for classes missed either online or in person.

I understand this would be very upsetting for all involved unfortunately we can not offer credit with the number of overheads we have to pay. All accounts need to be up to date and paid in full.​ Please email ultraflexdance@gmail.com and advise if you are experiencing financial difficulties.

Subscription payments will go automatically from your account on the 1st of each month. Any classes attended before the first of the month will be subject to an additional fee that will be added to your account. If you wish to cancel or pause a subscription fee.

They need to bring a drink to every class (non-fizzy)

We do 1 large show each year in the summer term. We also host a Christmas awards/in-house competition, but this is optional.

Each student will progress at a different speed and some make better advances in different sections of our FlexYoStyle teaching method more than another it depends on each individual child. We have our reach for the Stats Level system which ensures every student is reaching their full potential.

Then you can take a top-up class; these are available to all students - if you miss a week, notify the office and you can attend any of our other schools and catch up on your class, within that term. Unfortunately, this is not available on show terms, as routines will vary from class to class, and also pre-booking is essential due to limited numbers and covid restrictions.

Here at Ultraflex, we don’t have a uniform, many of the children like to wear an Ultraflex t-shirt but it is not compulsory. Your child will need to wear clothes that they can move in and a pair of trainers on their feet, soft shoes, socks with grips like trampoline ones or trainers/pumps will do.

It depends on the age group (see classes) generally dance classes are broken down into 5 sections. See the full description on our website.

The classes are age-based, however, if we feel as teachers that your child needs to be challenged more then we will advise accordingly. Sometimes there is a big jump between two classes and we have to make sure the children are ready for that jump. I also operate a level system within the class. Students love getting all their colours and seeing the progression through each term. Please see the full description of our Reach for the stars Level system on our website.
