ENROL FOR A TRIAL

 

Generation Dance offers a paid trial class for new students, so no big term fees are due until you're sure your child loves it.

Payments are automated, so when you register for a trial, you'll submit a direct debit form. The trial fee will be deducted once your child is confirmed, along with a one-time $5.50 setup fee. If your child doesn’t want to continue, let us know within 24 hours, and we’ll cancel the direct debit. If you don’t let us know, we’ll automatically enrol you in our monthly payment plan. Full details are in our Fee Schedule and Terms & Conditions below.
