ONE FREE CLASS

Each child is entitled to one free trial class. If you would like your child to try a class for free, inform your child's school and they will tell our staff. Please note: Our instructors track when a child receives a free class. Students are not officially enrolled until an online enrollment form ​is received and $35.00 enrollment fee is collected.

​***Please Note that our online registration system is designed for a 9-month enrollment period.

The first month of enrollment only will be prorated based on when you enroll and how many classes are left in the month. This is automated within our system. Any remaining months after the first month are not prorated. See TUITION section below for further details.

ENROLLMENT FEE

A $35.00 enrollment fee is due with every enrollment form. This fee is incorporated into the deposit amount which is required online. This fee is non-refundable.

TUITION

$62.00 Monthly - NOTE: Tuition may be higher in some areas/schools; you are welcome to email Admin@starzprogram.com with your school name and city for confirmation of tuition rates.
