Frequently Asked Questions

Yes — we offer a 15% discount for active duty service members, veterans, and military spouses. Simply show a valid military ID at the time of enrollment and the discount will be applied to your monthly tuition.

We completely understand that military life is unpredictable. Because we operate month-to-month with no contracts, you can cancel at any time with no fees or penalties. Just let us know and we’ll handle everything — no stress added to an already busy time.

Welcome to El Paso! We’d love to be part of your family’s transition. Reach out through our Inquiries page or call us at (915) 255-6072 and we’ll walk you through everything — programs, schedule, pricing, and your military discount — so you can get your dancer on the floor as quickly as possible.

Adagio Academy of Dance serves as the dance and movement partner for Texas Sports Academy, a K–8 school built around athletics. TSA students complete their core academics in the morning, which frees their afternoons for athletic training — and dance is now part of that training. You can read more on our Texas Sports Academy page.

Dance develops the exact qualities athletes rely on: balance, mobility, core strength, coordination, and body awareness. It also builds discipline, focus, and the composure to perform under pressure. Athletes at every level — from professional football to Olympic sport — have long used dance training to sharpen their fundamentals and reduce injury risk.

Not at all. The program is built for beginners and taught at an age-appropriate, progressive pace. Students who have never taken a dance class before are exactly who this training is designed for, and our instructors are experienced at meeting each student where they are.

You can enroll by visiting the studio during class hours, calling us at (915) 255-6072, or sending a message through our Inquiries page. We use GoStudioPro for online enrollment — our team will send you a direct link once we identify the right program for your dancer.

Absolutely! We offer trial classes for prospective students. Contact us to schedule a trial in the class that best fits your child’s age and experience level. There’s no obligation to enroll.

No contracts — ever. We operate on a month-to-month basis. We believe we should earn your continued enrollment through the quality of our programs, not lock you into an agreement. A courtesy notice is appreciated if you plan to discontinue, but it’s not required.

We welcome dancers starting at age 3 in our Preschool program. Classes are structured by age group so your child will always be in an appropriate, developmentally matched environment.

Our team will help you find the perfect fit! During enrollment, we assess your child’s age, experience level, and interests to recommend the most appropriate class. A trial class is also a great way to discover what they enjoy most.

Classes start at $90/month. Exact tuition depends on your program selection and is discussed in person. Contact us for a full quote.

Tuition is due monthly. Our team will provide payment details and instructions during enrollment. We accept payment through our GoStudioPro platform.

Recital costs are determined as we approach the recital date, as they depend on auditorium availability and pricing at the time. Unlike many other studios, we do not charge admission. We operate on a cost-sharing model — families contribute only to cover the auditorium and costume costs, nothing more.

We offer flexible makeup classes — your child can make up a missed class in any other class on our schedule at no extra charge. Simply let us know you’ll be attending a different class that week.

Attire varies by class. Ballet classes require ballet shoes and appropriate dancewear (leotard and tights). Hip-Hop classes allow comfortable athletic wear and clean sneakers. Acro classes require form-fitting clothing. We’ll give you full details upon enrollment and can help with uniform needs.

We have a designated observation area for parents. For younger children especially, we find that limited observation helps students focus and build independence. We’ll designate special parent observation days throughout the season.

Yes! We offer summer camps in June and July for children who want to keep dancing over the summer. Camp details are announced in spring each year. Contact us to get on the notification list.

The Elite program is for advanced dancers who are passionate about competing. Placement is based on skill level, dedication, and instructor recommendation. If you believe your dancer is ready, contact us to schedule an evaluation.

Our Elite team competes at regional competitions in the El Paso area and surrounding regions. Specific events vary by season — our coaches will communicate all competition details well in advance.
