By registering for, booking, attending, purchasing, or otherwise using any of our services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms, as amended from time to time. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use our services.

If you are using our services on behalf of a minor, organization, or another person, you represent and warrant that you have the legal authority to accept these Terms on that person’s behalf.

2. Scope of Services

• Ballet classes for children, teens, and adults;
• Jazz and contemporary dance training;
• Hip-hop choreography and performance classes;
• Private dance coaching and audition preparation;
• Wedding first-dance choreography;
• Kids beginner dance programs; and
• Studio rental for rehearsals and small events.

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any service, program, instructor, schedule, or studio availability at any time, subject to applicable law and any pre-existing written booking terms.

Schedules, class descriptions, age guidelines, skill levels, pricing, availability, and instructor assignments are subject to change without notice.

3. User Obligations and Responsibilities

By using our services, you agree that you will:

• Provide accurate, complete, and current information when registering, booking, or communicating with us;
• Comply with all studio rules, safety instructions, posted notices, and directions from our staff and instructors;
• Ensure that you or your child/ward is physically fit and medically able to participate in dance, movement, and related activities;
• Immediately inform us of any injury, medical condition, allergy, disability-related accommodation need, or other matter that may affect safe participation;
• Wear appropriate clothing and footwear for the relevant class or activity;
• Conduct yourself respectfully toward staff, instructors, other students, parents, guests, and property;
• Supervise minors as required by our policies and ensure timely drop-off and pick-up; and
• Refrain from any unlawful, disruptive, abusive, harassing, threatening, or unsafe behavior.

You are responsible for the actions of any minor participant for whom you register or consent to participation.

We reserve the right to remove, suspend, or refuse service to any person whose conduct we reasonably determine to be unsafe, disruptive, or inconsistent with these Terms, studio policies, or the rights of others, without a refund where permitted by law.

4. Payment Terms and Conditions

All fees, including class fees, package fees, private coaching fees, choreography fees, rental fees, deposits, administrative charges, late fees, and applicable taxes, must be paid in accordance with the pricing and payment instructions provided at the time of booking or registration.

• Prices are listed in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated.
• Payment may be required in advance to secure a booking, class spot, rental time, or service appointment.
• We may require a non-refundable deposit for private lessons, choreography work, events, or studio rentals.
• Late or declined payments may result in suspension of access to services, cancellation of bookings, or additional administrative charges, to the extent permitted by law.
• You are responsible for any fees charged by your financial institution, including NSF charges, chargeback-related fees, or currency conversion costs.

Unless expressly stated otherwise in writing, all sales are final and all fees become due at the time of purchase or booking.

We may change our prices, packages, and payment policies at any time, but such changes will not affect services already paid for unless required by law or otherwise agreed in writing.

5. Cancellation and Refund Policy

Our cancellation and refund rules may vary depending on the type of service booked. The following general policy applies unless a separate written policy, booking agreement, or statutory consumer right provides otherwise:

• Regular classes and programs: Missed classes due to illness, travel, scheduling conflicts, personal reasons, or lateness are generally not refundable or transferable.
• Private coaching and choreography: Cancellations made with less than 24 hours’ notice may be charged in full. Deposits are generally non-refundable once work has commenced or time has been reserved.
• Wedding first-dance choreography: Due to the customized nature of the service, fees paid for completed work, consultations, planning, and reserved time are generally non-refundable.
• Studio rental: Rental cancellations may be subject to minimum notice requirements, cancellation fees, and forfeiture of deposits, as set out in the rental booking terms.
• Studio cancellations: If we cancel a class, lesson, or rental due to scheduling conflicts, safety concerns, instructor unavailability, weather, or other operational reasons, we may offer a rescheduled session, account credit, or refund at our discretion, subject to applicable law.

Refunds, if approved, will be processed using the original payment method where reasonably possible and within a reasonable time.

Nothing in these Terms limits any non-waivable rights you may have under applicable consumer protection law in Ontario or Canada.

6. Liability Limitations

Participation in dance and movement activities involves inherent risks, including but not limited to slips, falls, collisions, overexertion, sprains, strains, bruises, fractures, and other injuries. By using our services, you voluntarily assume all risks reasonably associated with participation, except to the extent caused by our gross negligence or wilful misconduct, or as otherwise prohibited by law.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Maple Motion Dance Studio Ltd., its directors, officers, employees, contractors, instructors, agents, affiliates, and representatives shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, loss of opportunity, loss of data, or business interruption arising out of or relating to your use of the services.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim arising from or relating to the services shall not exceed the amount you paid to us for the specific service giving rise to the claim in the three (3) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, unless applicable law requires otherwise.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where such exclusion or limitation is prohibited by law, including liability for gross negligence, wilful misconduct, or any mandatory statutory liability.

You are responsible for your personal property brought onto the premises. We are not responsible for lost, stolen, or damaged personal items, except as required by law.

We may collect personal information such as names, contact details, emergency contacts, payment information, attendance records, health or accommodation information you voluntarily provide, and images or video captured during studio activities where consent has been obtained or otherwise permitted by law.

9. Force Majeure

We shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performance caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, fire, flood, severe weather, pandemic, epidemic, public health restrictions, labour disputes, power outages, equipment failures, government actions, civil unrest, transportation disruptions, or third-party service interruptions.

In the event of force majeure, we may reschedule, modify, suspend, or cancel affected services without liability beyond any remedies required by applicable law or expressly agreed in writing.

10. Changes to Terms

We may update or revise these Terms at any time. The revised Terms will become effective when posted on our website, shared by email, or otherwise communicated to you, unless a later effective date is stated.

Your continued use of our services after the effective date of any revised Terms constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you must stop using our services.
