    TERMS & CONDITIONS

    Please ensure you have read and understood the following Terms & Conditions before purchasing any of our products.

    PRIVATE LESSONS

    In order to secure your private lesson, we require full payment in advance.  No private lesson is guaranteed until full payment has been completed.

    Please allow a potential 15 minutes crossover period before/after your lesson with other private lessons or classes. 

    Our private lessons are run on a first-in, first-served basis and places are limited. Private lesson spots fill fast, and bookings for all Auckland Dance Company classes/private lessons are essential. 

    RAIN/SHINE/PANDEMIC POLICY

    Classes run rain, shine, hail, thunderstorm, rugby game, or pandemic! In the event we are in a remote learning environment (e.g. due to the Covid-19 pandemic) we will conduct private lessons at their usual date and time via Zoom. Zoom links will be sent via normal communication channels in the hour prior to the lesson.

    NO SHOWS/CANCELLATIONS

    No-shows and private lesson cancellations will not be refunded. ADC believes in dedication and focus, and all students are responsible for their own attendance and expected to maintain a high level of commitment. If you are unable to make it to a private lesson, we can work with you to choose an alternative date and time.  Please note changes within 3-7 days of your lesson will be charged a $45 admin fee, and changes within 72 hours of your lesson are not permitted.

    COMMUNICATIONS & NOTIFICATIONS

    All important lesson announcements are made via email, Facebook or Instagram. Please check in the hour before our class to see if there have been any changes. 

    FEES

    All payment of fees to Auckland Dance Company are final.

    ZERO-TOLERANCE POLICY

    ADC has a zero-tolerance policy on gossip, bullying, harassment, exclusion, back-stabbing and negative discussion.  If we find students to be partaking in any of this, they will be removed from class and no refunds will be given.  We are an open, loving, positive and supportive environment, and we welcome any and all peoples into our community. If you are feeling unsafe before, during or after class, please reach out to any of the ADC team members onsite or via the info@aucklanddance.co.nz, and we will support you!

    INJURY POLICY & HEALTH REQUIREMENTS

    ADC bears no responsibility for injuries sustained during private lessons. All students understand that they are partaking in a physical activity and will take the necessary personal precautions to protect themselves from injury wherever possible. Our choreographers will do all they can to help make the private lessons as comfortable as possible for you, should you have injuries, these must be stated clearly prior to each class you attend. We have fantastic osteopaths and acupuncturists who work with the company, should you need help with any prior injuries that we can recommend. Stretching, warming up and down is 100% recommended before and after your class begins/ends to alleviate any potential injury.

    CONSENT

    Sometimes within private lessons our tutors/instructors may move or touch you to demonstrate a partnerwork move, a lift, or to direct you into the correct position or location on the floor. Students understand that this is part of being in a dance lesson and instructors will do what they can to ask permission first. If you do not agree or are uncomfortable with this, please tell us prior to the lesson beginning. ADC pride ourselves in being a safe environment to be in, and all instructors have been police-checked prior to their involvement with the company.

    SOCIAL MEDIA, PHONES & VIDEOS

    All ADC private lessons are a phone-free zone, to allow all participants to be present in each lesson. ADC Choreographers and ADC HQ reserve the right to film for polishing/promotional purposes, and all videos and photography are the intellectual property of ADC.  Filming and distribution of filmed choreography is strictly prohibited unless expressly granted by ADC HQ in writing.  The only exception to this is in the event that photos/videos have already been shared publicly by ADC on our social feeds - in which case, share away! 

    Restriction of video distribution is to promote learning of the choreography, and discourage complacency. Reliance on videos is highly discouraged across all boards.  Students understand that the lessons are not for fame or to appear on media, and videos in class will not be distributed freely due to intellectual property copyright. No videos are to be shared of the lessons if a student has been asked to film, and must be deleted from the student's phone or device once ADC have received it and given the word.

    PERFORMANCES

    Some private lesson students will be offered the opportunity to perform their work in our shows and/or shoots throughout the year.  This is not guaranteed. Performance fees will apply for students wishing to participate in performances/events, videos, or in any of our dance showcases.
