Just a friendly reminder dancers are only allowed to miss 3 classes for the entire summer. There are 9 regular class days scheduled and students must attend a minimum of 6. Three excused absences are permitted. Company policy sheet states, "Up to 3 excused absences PER CLASS in the summer and up to 5 excused absences PER CLASS during the school year. Absences must be called into the office and excused prior to the class". Since our competitions will begin earlier this season, teams are starting choreography now and we don't want your dancer to miss out during this important time.

We have been notified by our credit card vendor that there was a database error during routine maintenance on their recurring payments site over the weekend, which processed autopays for last season. Due to this error, transaction authorizations were made against some credit cards that were not scheduled for payment. The processed payments were NOT authorized by Infinity Dance. We have been assured by the vendor that any temporary "holds" or payments that were processed in error will be settled and accounts credited back based on their issuing bank’s policies – typically in three-to-five business days. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused, however, we had no control over this situation. We have taken steps to ensure we don't have this issue again in the future with this vendor. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

We are SO thrilled with all you awesome dancers! Please know that a lot of thought was put in to each placement to get everyone in just the right place! Based on the larger than expected turn out for auditions, we developed some additional companies and teams. Some of the teams/companies we would like to create, don't have quite enough dancers for a full team yet. If your name is not listed below, please contact the office to discuss class options. We would love to fill up each group if we can get the minimum number of dancers.
