High Voltage Dance Company Agreement for the 2026 – 2027 Dance Season
- All fees must be paid by the due date.
- Placement of all team members will be left to the discretion of the instructors.
- Team members must wear the proper designated dance attire to all of their classes.
- Every team member is expected to practice outside of scheduled class times. A team member who falls behind due to a lack of practice will be dismissed from the company.
- Team members are always expected to be on time. Please arrive 15 minutes early for proper preparation.
- Any team member with an unhealthy attitude towards their fellow team members, any DJDS dancers, instructors, or staff will be given strikes for behavior or dismissed from the company.
- Students must receive permission from the studio manager (Miss Angie) or studio director (Miss Jen) to use classrooms for rehearsal times. No DJDS equipment may be used.
- All team members must be enrolled in their required technique classes. Should a dancer miss their required tech class for any reason, it must be made up within a month of the missed lesson (prior makeups to the missed dates are acceptable) or a strike will be given. See #14 for more on tech strikes.
- Team Members are required to attend all company lessons. If a member is absent due to a reason beyond their control, they must have a fill-in that day, and it is their responsibility to learn/know what they missed before returning to class. Zoom/FaceTime is also encouraged for company classes; however, tech classes must be made up in person.
- A team member who knows ahead of time that they will be absent must let their instructors know, via Miss Angie, no later than one week prior. That teacher may want or need to reschedule said rehearsal to accomplish their goals for the team.
- To submit absences: Email angie@daryljervisdance.com. In the subject: dancer’s name, body of email: exact class/classes (include day/time/teacher) they will miss and your plan for tech class make ups (provide the class day/time/teacher & date of make up you will or have already attended). See #15 for more on technique classes.
- Team members who are ill or injured should present a note from a doctor or parent (via Miss Angie) in order to be excused from performing in class. The student is still expected to attend class and learn by sitting and taking notes, as long as they are not contagious.
- The week prior to “ALL HVDC” competitions, all classes are mandatory for HVDC members. A last rehearsal before competition is vital for the entire team and additional rehearsals might be necessary, so keep that week free.
- Competition and/or travel days for competition could include Thursday and Friday during school hours.
- Tech class STRIKES: If a dancer misses a technique class for any reason, it must be made up in another tech class within a one-month time period, prior makeups to the missed dates are acceptable. **See the current class schedule on our website for all available tech classes. Permission to attend a higher-level tech class must be received from the instructor each new year, via Miss Angie, prior to the make up. The dancer will receive one strike if the class is not made up on time. Strikes will be removed once the tech class is made up, so get into class asap!
- If a dancer has three strikes against them a month prior to a competition (attendance or behavioral) they may be put on probation by the instructor and made an alternate for the company. This means they could not compete. This also means that they may be pulled out of formations until the classes are made up. They must still attend all classes and work on making up the missed lessons. Readmittance will be given once the strikes are removed and there is enough time to make the adjustment in class prior to the next competition.
- If for any reason a dancer is unable to attend a competition, readmittance is only allowed for the next competition if there is enough time to make the adjustment in class prior to the next competition. Paid comp fees are non-refundable.
- Parents must honor the rules of the studio. Any disrespect towards students, faculty, or the studio can result in their child’s immediate dismissal from the team and the studio.
- Any team member not in compliance with company requirements will be dismissed from the High Voltage Dance Company.
- No refunds will be given if a member is dismissed.
- Instructors are not to be contacted personally for any reason. All communications should pass though the front desk.
- Questions, concerns, and complaints must be addressed to the studio manager (Miss Angie
via angie@daryljervisdance.com) or the studio director (Miss Jen via daryljervisdance@gmail.com), not through other parents or the students. Failure to do so has proven to cause more turmoil. The instructors, studio manager, and studio director deeply care for all students and how their dance experience plays out. We must be made aware of any issues to properly provide a remedy as soon as possible. Do not hesitate to reach out. - And finally, all MUST have fun and enjoy the moment!
I give my child permission to be a member of the High Voltage Dance Company at Daryl Jervis Dance Studio. I have reviewed this agreement with my dancer and we both understand the importance of attendance and making up when missed. I am aware of and take responsibility for the additional costs involved such as master classes, costumes, conventions/competitions, extra rehearsals, etc. I agree to help my child abide by the team rules and requirements for as an honored High Voltage Dance Company member. We promise to cheer on and support all Daryl Jervis Dance Studio dancers, parents, instructors, and staff. It is also understood that the terms of this agreement extend for one full year (audition to audition).
