Helpful Information

PARKING
The front lot can get busy. For safety, please watch for children and escort young dancers to the building. Do not block the driveway to the rear business (Pat’s Pool Water – large trucks use that space). Additional parking is available on the side and in the back lot.

SNOW & BAD WEATHER POLICY
If Wolcott Public Schools are closed due to weather, typically evening classes at Velocity are also canceled.

To confirm, call or text after 2:30 PM at (860) 796-0136
Make-up classes will be scheduled before the end of the year.

Note: Sometimes weather clears in time for classes. We may update this policy accordingly and will text message dance families with this update.

MISSED CLASS MAKE-UP POLICY
If your dancer misses a class, they may make it up during the same month in a similar class. Please call or text us at (860) 796-0136 to let us know in advance when possible.

VELOCITY PERFORMANCES
All students are encouraged to participate in our annual showcase and other scheduled performances throughout the year.

If your dancer prefers to take class without performing, that’s absolutely fine — just let us know in advance.

COSTUME COSTS
Velocity typically does not use traditional recital costumes. Ballet and Contemporary classes may require special performance wear.

We aim to keep costs low by using versatile pieces that can be worn again as dance or street clothes. Students will be notified in advance of any required items. Some performance wear may be purchased independently (e.g., black jazz pants, red top), while some classes may order coordinated outfits through Velocity.

CLASS OBSERVATION
Please note: this policy may change due to health and safety guidelines.

Velocity has an open-door policy. If you'd like to observe a class, just let us know in advance.

We usually keep studio doors closed during class to avoid distractions from the lobby. If a student has a friend who’d like to watch, please inform the teacher beforehand as a courtesy.
