Schedule a Placement Class

NEW STUDENTS TO GULFSHORE BALLET

We welcome all interested ballet/dance students to our school and enrollment is open year round.

All NEW students will need to sign up for a Placement Class to determine the appropriate Level for the Student before registering and signing up for classes.

Gulfshore Ballet Faculty will assess each incoming student to determine the correct level at which the child should be placed by offering a placement class, held during our Fall or Spring Season in a currently running class.

Creative Dance (Mommy/Daddy & Me) and Adult students are excluded from Placement Classes.

Please fill out this form completely and a Gulfshore Ballet staff member will contact you by email or phone within 3 days after submitting this form to schedule a class that seems appropriate for your student based on the information you’ve given.

Placement classes are $20 per class and must be paid at the time that you schedule the class online in the Parent Portal or when the student comes in for the placement class by cash or credit card and are non refundable even if you decide not to enroll your child in classes.

Placement Classes taken during Summer Sessions or Open Classes are charged the going rate for those classes.

After you have submitted the Placement Class Request Form and we have gotten back to you with the correct Class to try please create an online account here

Then click on the correct Level and Class and then on “Trial Lesson” where you will be prompted to pay for the class.

Alternatively, you can go to the Main Menu in the GSB Dance Studio Pro Portal and select Placement Class from the Studio Store menu under Classes & Registration.

When you arrive for your placement class, please come to the office and let us know you are here.

If you haven’t scheduled and paid for the Trial Class online you may pay the $20.00 at this time by cash or credit card.

We will then introduce you to the instructor who will evaluate your student.

After the class, the instructor will talk to you about the proper level for your student.

Then the Office Manager will either speak to you, call or email you and enroll your student in the appropriate level.

New Student Registration fee is a $50 per family non refundable fee, due at time of enrollment.

Placement Class Attire:

For female students please have hair in a neat bun with bangs clipped away from their face.

New Students for Levels 1 through Pre Pro can wear a black leotard, pink tights and pink ballet slippers for their Placement Class.
