Let’s get started! Hello and welcome to Colorado Movement Lab! We are thrilled to offer labs (classes) to all dancers from the age of 1 to 18. There is a movement lab for everyone and we are always changing and adding new modalities of dance and movement.
Step 1
Create a CML DanceStudio-Pro Account. Once your account is created, our CML Concierge will contact you via email or a follow up phone call to schedule a free trial placement class.
Step 3
Free Trial Placement Class! Come in and take a class with one of our amazing instructors. We will follow up with you within 48 hours to suggest eligible classes in your account. You can either sign up for classes or our concierge can help you with enrollment.
Step 2
Schedule an Assessment. Whether you are new to dance or have experience, we would love to know more about you! Please fill out a New Student Dancer Assessment Form with your personal information, contact details, dance experience (if any), and any other relevant information for placement and referrals.
Step 4
Labs/classes will be suggested in your account and we will assist you in curating your dance schedule!
Other things to know:
- Dress Code for trial classes. If you have dance attire, please wear that to class. If you don’t, no worries. Please wear a plain t-shirt, leggings and socks. No jewelry except for stud earrings. Long hair should be in a bun for ballet labs and ponytails for other styles of dance.
- For enrollment, you will be required to enroll in Auto-Pay in your DSP account. Tuition will be posted in accounts on the 25th of the month and Auto-Pay will be run on the 1st of the month. For example, November tuition will be posted on October 25th and run on November 1. To keep our monthly tuition affordable and predictable, we take 33 weeks of tuition and divide it into 10 equal payments. It’s gnarly for August/September, but it helps families for the rest of the season.
- CML will post a $40 annual registartion fee ($30 for additional family members dancing with us).
