  • I am excited to announce our new billing system moving forward! We will now be taking payments in the Parent Portal again, which streamlines workflow for SRDT. However, we are now connected to a new payment processing provider who can offer CC and debit card payments! AND, payments can easily be set to auto-pay should you so choose. For those of you who may be new, we did not historically have a way to pay with card so this is an awesome update, and less time-consuming than invoicing everyone with quickbooks. It seamlessly integrates with our registration software (hooray)! So, I find this to be a happy medium between our former payment processing system and quickbooks. I hope you like it!

  • Since we are using a new processing provider, everyone will need to update their preferred method of payment in the Parent Portal, by Oct 31st. SRDT prefers CC payments whenever possible, as this greatly streamlines our financial workflows. Should you want to pay in cash or check, we will still accept this, but you must enter card info or bank info into your account to have on file. 

  •  

  • Additionally, I have loved offering medical advice on various aches. pains, complaints whenever possible. I would like to continue doing this, but need to add this to the school agreements for liability sake. Additionally, we are adding new Pilates classes and exercise classes that I need waivers signed for as well.

  • You can sign all new waivers and update your payment method below.

Sincerely, Ms. Christa

SRDT Policy & Payment Updates

Historically, SRDT has not accepted card payment of any kind for payment of tuition. After collecting feedback from many of you, we will now be accepting card payments, starting this week. Due to this update in our epayment options, we ask you re-sign the payment agreement that you originally signed at the start of the semester. The only difference is the added authorization for SRDT to run your debit/ credit card on file when payments are due, if that is what you chose to pay with.


The next agreement is for medical advice and treatment. I have had the pleasure of answering some questions regariding physical health for some of you at the studio, and want to have a blanket agreement for any free advice or treatment I may offer dancers or families of dancers.


Third, all families registered with SRDT will need to update their payment preference on the Parent Portal by Oct 31, 2024, as we are switching to a new processing provider. After signing the two waivers, you will be redirected to the parent portal to update your information. This must be done by October 31st 2024, in order for your dancer to continue taking classes with us at SRDT come November. For those of you who prefer to pay cash/ check, we still require a card on file, but will not auto-charge it unless you select auto-pay. Please keep in mind that SRDT specifically prefers credit card payments, should you be impartial to which payment type you use. This allows for faster financial processing, streamlining our bookkeeping monthly. Thank you for your cooperation.

1) Updated SRDT Payment Policies Agreement:

I authorize Dance Evolution Studios Inc, DBA Santa Rosa Dance Theater, to charge my debit/credit card on file for tuition payments as they become due, including any applicable late fees or returned payment fees. If for any reason my payment is returned, a $25 returned payment fee will be assessed.


Tuition will continue to be charged to each student’s account until the office receives written notice of withdrawal at least 14 days before the 1st of the upcoming month. All tuition and fees are non-refundable.


Tuition paid after the 10th will acquire a $10 fee per week that is is late.
