Attendance
  • In order to achieve the best results, students are required to attend all classes and other sessions to which they may be assigned. In order to minimize absences, parents are asked to take into consideration all class times and dates when scheduling any appointments, planning family vacations, etc.
  • Regular attendance is absolutely vital in making sure a student achieves and maintains his or her mastery of dance technique.
  • Embody By V, LLC does not offer make-up classes for student absences.
  • Please email us in you are interested in private lessons at info@embodybyv.com.
Tardiness
  • In order to prevent injury and eliminate instructional disruptions, students are required to arrive ON TIME for the start of all classes and alternate sessions. This display of good work ethic shows respect for both the instructors and fellow students, in addition to giving the student ample time to be fully engaged in class.

  • Parents, please come to the door to pick up your student. For safety, no student will leave the facility until a parent or authorized driver picks him/her up.  Student drivers are exempt. 
Class Behavior
  • Prior to class, all students should understand the levels of focus, concentration, and self-discipline that will be required to achieve the skill level of dance desired. All students will learn dance technique through observation and the execution of demonstrated steps rather than through discussion. Talking during class is generally discouraged, though the occasional question is welcomed. If a student has a question, they should let the instructor know by raising their hand. This helps us achieve the quickest progression in any given class. Dance technique is based on constant repetition of movement in order to train and strengthen the muscles of the body. Students who are disruptive during class will be asked to briefly sit out and observe so that others may continue their work uninterrupted.
  • Parents will be notified immediately if unacceptable behavior is displayed.

Personal Property
  • Embody By V, LLC is not responsible for lost, stolen, and damaged items. Any items not claimed by the end of each semester will be discarded or donated to charity.

Evaluations/ Assessment Day
  • Every student enrolled in HBCU Dance Prep will receive an end-of-semester evaluation that will be emailed to parents. Please allow 5 - 10 business days to receive the progress reports. These reports will help families better understand the progress of their student.

Parent Observation
  • Due to Covid, our Parent Observation day will be conducted virtually unless otherwise informed. 
  • Parents and other individuals who may be interested in viewing students as they train are invited and encouraged to observe classes during scheduled Parent Observation days. Parents will be notified about observation dates. In an effort to minimize distraction for our students and instructors, we do NOT allow parents to observe classes through doorways or windows on non-observation days. Our primary goal is to enable your child to remain focused on their instruction.

During Parent Observation please abide by the following rules and regulations:
  • Please arrive ON TIME for the start of class and remain seated until the session is over. Please do not enter or exit the studio once class has begun.
  • Turn off cell phones, pagers, and all other portable electronic devices.
  • Please refrain from talking during class to both students and other observers.
  •  No food or drink is allowed in the dance studios.
  • Observation days are intended for parents, relatives, and older siblings who are able to adequately understand and observe all classroom etiquette. If young children are to attend, please note that it is often very difficult for them to sit quietly for the duration of the class. Out of consideration for others, please do not bring toys or any other distractions into the classroom. Any child who is being loud and/or disruptive to the class is expected to be escorted out of the studio by their parents.
  • We are confident that any observation days that you attend will allow you to see the progress your child is making in their chosen class with the expert help of our instructors. We sincerely thank you for enabling us to make this an enjoyable and informative experience for all students, parents, and instructors.

Conferences and Questions
  • Parents are more than welcome to schedule a conference with the Director of Embody By V, LLC.  If you wish to do so, please schedule an appointment via email info@embodybyv.com. We request that you do not approach any instructor before or after classes with questions. Please understand that instructors are focusing on their class work and their lesson plans prior to a session. Our director will address your questions or concerns.

School Closings
  • If classes are cancelled due to inclement weather, Embody By V, LLC will send out emails and post on Social Media (Facebook & Instagram); if nothing is posted classes will resume as normal. Please note that we do not necessarily follow the city, county, or any school district in terms of when we will cancel classes. Embody By V, LLC is not responsible for any classes that are cancelled due to extreme weather conditions or any other circumstance that is beyond the control of Embody By V, LLC.​
