INCLEMENT WEATHER

In the case of inclement weather we will look at Tigard-Tualatin and Sherwood School Districts to help determine if we should close for weather. If instructors can safely make it in we will generally hold classes for those who can safely make it to the studio. Make-ups are accepted, but there are no refunds for missed classes due to inclement weather. We will always try to communicate ahead of time through social media channels and email. No news is generally good news, meaning if you don’t hear from us and we haven’t posted anything classes are happening!
