Half Term Holiday: Sunday 26 October- Sunday 2 November
I hope you've all had a wonderful summer and are feeling refreshed and ready—because we are absolutely buzzing to get back! Whether you're returning to us or stepping into Elevations for the very first time, we’re thrilled to welcome you into our dance family.
Our passionate teaching team has been working behind the scenes, full of fresh ideas and a shared drive to inspire every dancer who walks through our doors. Their excitement is infectious, and we know it's going to be a term full of creativity, growing confidence, new dance skills, exciting choreography, and lasting friendships.
New Students
The members handbook lists all FAQ such as: term dates, uniform, what to wear for your first class, venue information, how to access your hall... find it here: www.elevationsleeds.com/september
For new members (or returning students trying a new class), please don’t be alarmed when an invoice drops in your inbox – our system issues invoices automatically, and any necessary adjustments will be made once term begins and you have trialled the session/established suitability. If you wish to continue, the invoice will be due and your holding fee will be membership for the academic year 25/26. As part of membership, you will receive a Elevations t-shirt when you have settled your tuition invoice.
If the class was unsuitable- please email info@elevationsleeds.com and we'll refund your holding fee less the cost of the trial class. Please communicate with us.
We have left it as late as possible to send out invoices to ensure we managed to sort any last minute class additions/swaps. Any class cancellations at this point will be invoiced the first class to allow us reassignment of your place.
Fees should be settled the first week of term please.
How to pay?
You can settle your invoice via bank transfer (BACS). If you have our account details from last year- they've not changed- so please transfer using your childs name as reference.
If you have never paid via bank transfer and wish to obtain our account details- please request by replying to the email which the invoice is attached to. We hold a remittance list so that we know to expect your payment via BACS (should we have a unreferenced payment which happens more often than we would like).
Desk Payments
All desk payments receive a free gift. No catch- totally free- just come and pay in person. We do not have a card portal on site- it is cash payments only at the desk.

Do you have a little one at home? Do you know someone who might enjoy this session? Please help us spread the word- we would love some new little dancers and seem to be struggling to get the word out! Can you post a leaflet on your school/nursery noticeboard for us or leave some leaflets out in a suitable workplace? If so, please do let us know. We would very much appreciate your help.
Perfect for little ones under 4 who love to move and groove! Book now for September (trials available):
All exam results were sent out via email. The awards and certificates arrived yesterday. Our team will get these sorted out the first week of term ready to hand out from the second week of term during class time.
Wedding Bells
Thank you to all those who contributed to Miss Laura's wedding vouchers. She was truly touched with your messages and kindness. Didn't she look amazing? Gorgeous bride!
We have another wedding next week! Yes, Miss Nel is getting married this September to her partner, Jacob. If you would like to contribute to Miss Nel's wedding collection, please find link below... again- we plan to get vouchers for the happy couple! Like buses; the staff weddings have all come at once this year! The collection will close on 13th September. Thank you.
All returning members will receive their t-shirt during class—there’s no need to visit the desk to collect it.
New members will attend their trial session(s), and if you choose to continue, you can collect your t-shirt at the desk when settling your fees. If you prefer to pay via BACS, your child will receive their t-shirt at their next class once the BACS payment has been accounted for.
Brandwear & Uniform Update
If you ordered a hoodie/fleece (etc) before 17 August- items are ready. We will hand this to your child in class. If you placed an order after 17 August, it will go in with our September order on the 17 September. If you would like anything- please order before 17th. We will endeavour to place an order once per month going forward with a short lead time.
Please find a link below to our uniform list, and kit links to online retailers to help you with your purchase.
We are absolutely thrilled by the number of students who have recently auditioned for—and succeeded in—productions, advanced training programmes, and other exciting opportunities. Your talent, dedication, and hard work continue to inspire us, and we couldn’t be prouder!
To celebrate all of these incredible achievements, we’re putting together a ‘Hall of Fame’ this term to showcase your successes and share your news with our wider school community. Whether it’s a recent accomplishment or something from the past academic year, we’d love to hear from you!
If you’re a parent of a student who would like to be included, please complete the form below and upload a photo you’re happy for us to use. We want to ensure no one is missed, so please remind us of your achievements by the end of September even if you think 'Hayley already knows this'- please submit!
