General Terms and Conditions

LISS offers a unique approach to our class curriculum. In lieu of the traditional 4 week progressive series of classes, we offer intensive workshop-style classes. This allows you to learn more efficiently with more attention to technique, styling, and partnership. Each workshop can be taken independently of each other as we offer different content from month to month. Anyone can come to classes designated as “Level 1” or “All Levels.” Classes designed as “Level 2” or “Intermediate” require instructor approval as they assume familiarity and facility with a set of fundamental concepts.

Refund Policy (all sales final)

There are no cash, check or credit card refunds permitted. All sales and services expire based on type of service purchased. In extreme cases, credits may be approved by management and made in the form of studio credit only. If a payment made by check is not honored by the student’s bank (“bounced check”), the student will be responsible to remit cash for the previous purchase along with any bank fees the studio has incurred. Any student with a balance will not be permitted to enroll in future classes until such debt is satisfied.

Privacy Policy

The security of your personal information is very important to us. We will never sell or share your information to any third party.

Purchase Policy

Payments for services may be made in cash or via PayPal or Venmo. Gift certificates expire one year from date of purchase.

Cancellation Policy

If you are unable to attend a class you pre-registered for, your payment will be credited toward a future LISS class of equal value.

If you are unable to make a scheduled private lesson, you must cancel and/or reschedule at least 24 hours in advance to avoid being charged for the lesson. Likewise, if an instructor for a private lessons is unable to make the scheduled private lesson, you will be notified at least 24 hours in advance and no charges will be made against your account.
