Registration by age is a preliminary guideline for placement. Therefore, the age requirements for each level are precursory. Creative Soul reserves the right to place a student in a level above or below their age group based on the number of years of previous dance education, emotional maturity, and technical proficiency. We will make recommendations based on where we believe your child will make the most progress and be most successful, we ask that you respect the school’s recommendation on placement. We will use the first two weeks of classes to assess placement for each student.

At Creative Soul, we believe that every student deserves the opportunity to pursue their passion, regardless of their financial situation. We understand that the cost of dance education can be a barrier for families, and our goal is to ensure that financial limitations do not prevent students from receiving high-quality dance education. The Creative Soul Scholarship Program is designed to support dedicated dancers who demonstrate potential and a commitment to the art of dance. This program provides financial assistance to selected students. Creative Soul offers partial and full scholarships for the 2024-2025 season.
