Solo, Duo, Trio Signup Genius & Studio Booking Process

Cheryl has created the Solo, Duo, Trio Signup Genius for this season. Click here to access the Signup Genius. Everyone must wait until they receive the email before signing up.

Make sure that you note on the Signup Genius whether you are signing up for your dancer’s solo, duo, or trio rehearsal.   Please make sure that only 1 mom or dancer signs up for a given slot for a duo or trio.

You may only sign up for one slot each time new dates are posted. After 3 days, if there are still spots open, dancers who do not have a solo/duo/trio and would just like a private lesson for technique are eligible to book. These dancers should be prepared to come to their private lesson with an agenda of what they want to work on. 

Dancers, please remember the following:

  • Please bring your music to the private lesson.
  • Please bring payment ($35 for a 30 minute session) at the start of each rehearsal.  There is no option to have this charge added to your FootNotes account.  All dancers must pay the instructor directly by either check, Venmo, or cash.
  • If your dancer is unable to attend your booked rehearsal session, you must notify FootNotes at footnotesdance@comcast.net, at least 24 hours ahead of your scheduled time.   If you ‘miss’/forget a rehearsal that you have signed up for, you are still responsible for the payment to the instructor.
  • As always, dancers are always free to book an empty room to practice on their own.

Studio Booking Process

We will be using Calendly to book rooms for practices and/or to log your required rehearsals for solo, duo or trios. Click here to access the FootNotes booking page on Calendly.

  • Solos, duos or trios must log 1 hour each month in the studio on your own. 
  • These bookings are for rehearsing/practicing, not playtime. 
  • These bookings are dancers only. No parents are allowed in the studios unless the dancer is under the age of 11. 
  • Dancers are not allowed to share the room with any other dancer while logging your required rehearsal time (except in a duo or trio). It is on your own. 
  • Dancers 5th grade or younger are not allowed to share the room with other dancers at any time. You may have a parent present if needed. 
  • Bookings are done in 15 minute time slots. You may book for up to 2 slots a day. We will see how this goes before placing any other restrictions. 
  • You will get a confirmation email once the booking is confirmed.
  • You will be charged at the end of each month with a fee of $5.00 per 15 minute slot.  
  • Your booking is subject to cancellation due to changes in room availability. At which time you will receive a cancellation notice via email.
