O’Rourke Irish Dancers, LLC Guidelines and Rules:

  1. By signing the registration form you acknowledge and accept that Irish Dance is a physical activity that involves risk of injury.  Your signature on the registration form releases O’Rourke Irish Dancers, LLC, it’s teachers and assistants from any and all liability resulting from injury that is caused by Irish Dancing.
  2. Please arrive on time for scheduled classes.  All students should enter the studio and not wait in the hall.   Allow approximately 10-15 minutes to change and be prepared to start at the scheduled time.  If you find yourself in a situation where you will be unable to make your class, please contact the teacher of your class to find out when your child can attend a make-up class.  If they cannot attend a make-up class then they are responsible for getting the missed material from another student.  Parents are not allowed to wait for students in the dance studio.  Please do not allow siblings to run in the halls. 
  3. Please adhere to the following DRESS CODE (applies to all students except adults and preschoolers): 

Students should come to class in black shorts with a white or black t-shirt or leotard top. Students in Advanced Beginner and above must wear white “poodle socks” with the appropriate shoes.  Beginners can wear ankle length to knee high white socks.  Hair must be pulled back off the face, in a ponytail or bun.  Note: Jazz sneakers and leggings are acceptable for adult dancers only.  No excessive jewelry is to be worn in class.  This includes necklaces, dangling earrings and bracelets. If there is an issue that would cause the student not to wear the appropriate shoes (e.g. blisters, bunions, corns, etc.) please make your teacher aware of the issue so an exception can be made.

 

  1. O’Rourke Irish Dancers showcases all of the students and the material they leaned throughout the year at its annual recital.  Students are expected to participate in the recital during the Spring semester, date to be announced.  If your child cannot participate in the recital please let the teachers know as early as possible in the Spring semester.  Classes’ start preparing for the recital at the beginning of the Spring semester, therefore your child’s absence at the recital could cause a disturbance in a routine if not planned for.
  2. If class is canceled due to inclement weather or you miss class you can make up your class during the same week in the class closest to your child’s level or during the following week.  E.g. if your child attends Tuesday’s Novice class they can make up a missed class during the Tuesday’s Advanced Beginner or Prize Winner class. 
  3. Please show respect for you fellow students and teachers.  Do not sit idle if the teacher is focusing attention on a particular student or students.  Use that time to practice your steps.
