FAQ
Do I need to register to attend a class?
Yes, you will need an account under our registration system, WellnessLiving, in order to attend our classes.
Can I walk-in or should I register online?
If you can, please register online. It will allow a much faster check-in process.
If you have trouble with online registration, please come in-person to register. Most of our classes are drop-in friendly.
What classes can I drop-in?
Most classes are drop-in friendly including 121, 122, 150, 220, 250 level classes.
Classes NOT available for drop-in: Beginner Salsa & Bachata 101/102 monthly series, other 101/102 series, and Advanced (Sensual Bachata and Mambo) 301 series (Assessment required).
Can I drop-in to Sensual 301 or Mambo 301?
No drop-in is available for Sensual 301 and Mambo 301 classes. Advanced classes require students to pass an Assessment. During the Assessment, students will be observed by instructors to gauge each students' dance level. Assessment happens once every 2 months after each rotation. Schedule of Assessment Day is posted on our front page news and available to register on our Wellness living system. Until you pass an assessment you will not be able to take these classes.
Dress-code
Adults: Comfortable cloth to move and potentially sweat in. Non-marking and non-slip shoes recommended. If you do not have dance shoes already then we recommend shoes with a smooth bottom sole which will allow turning and twisting easier on the ankles.
Kids: No slippers. No shorts. No dresses. Jazz or other soft sole dance shoes preferred. Dancers should feel comfortable to move in their cloth and shoes. There are moves where we will get on the floor to do movements and we would like the children’s knees to be covered to reduce injuries.
Payment
We require payment of service prior to all of our event or classes via our registration system, cash/check, venmo or credit card. Invoices can be made upon request. There is no refunds (only credits can be issued.)
Financial Aid
We offer partial financial assistance to students who demonstrate excellence, desire and commitment to dance and who require financial help.
Contact us for more information.
Cancellation/Refund Policy
NO SHOW/CANCELLATION POLICY: Class must be canceled at least 12 hours prior, via email, the website or app, otherwise it will be considered a late cancelation or no show and will result in the forfeit of the class. This applies to all class-pass options including Drop-in, 4-class, 8-class, 12-class, 16-class passes. There is no make-up for missed classes for series such as Bachata 101 or Salsa 101.
REFUNDS: We do not offer refunds. Class credits can be offered if there are family emergencies, injuries or sickness. You must contact us 12 hours prior to your scheduled event via email for a class credit to be considered.
Series vs Class-Pack: Series are cheaper ways to purchase an entire month of classes. However, it is less flexible than class-pack. For example. You purchased Salsa 120 monthly series for $75 and plan to miss a class, we are unable to offer credit for missed classes. However, if you purchase a 5 class-pack and notify us via email at least 24 hours before the class starts, we can reinstate the missed class credit to your account.
Special Circumstances: We know life happens, email us (info@bailadistrict.com) if you need an extension, pause a class etc.
Sensual 201/301 & Mambo 301: Assessment required classes require a special link for registration online. You should have received an email for the registration.
Transfer (48 hr prior): Certain event tickets and classes may be transferred up to 48 hours prior to the start of the event unless other specified in the event description. Inquire to confirm before purchase. Please be cognizant that certain classes must be lead/follow balanced in order for the transfer to occur. (Ex. If you are a lead, you can transfer your ticket to another lead only unless otherwise approved.)
Exceptions: If you have a medical or family emergency after classes or events has started, please write to us as soon as possible with your proof and we can offer a credit for remaining classes.
We reserve the right to make the final decision of refunds and cancellations.
Misconduct
In order to ensure a smooth and collaborative environment for our dancers we do not tolerate misconduct at our premise and Baila District events. This include harassment, force and intimidation, verbal and physical attacks, criminal misconducts, physical and sexual misconducts. Individuals reported to the studio will be investigated upon. Baila District ultimately can decide and reserve the right to refuse service to anyone.
