  • Class prices will be listed in the registration portal once registration opens on August 17th. Each class is a monthly tuition and price is based on the duration of the class (30 min, 45min, 60min, etc).  Our pricing model for general recreational classes is as follows:

    30 min class = $59.00 per month

    45 min class = $69.00 per month

    60 min class = $79.00 per month

    For our specialty classes, technique classes are $79.00 per month and the Radiate Academy classes are $85.00 per month as these are smaller classes that focus on different topics each month. The nice thing about these classes is that you can choose if you want to attend every month (continuous enrollment) or if you only want to attend a certain month for a specific topic. 

    All prices were based on extensive market research for the Bismarck-Mandan community with consideration of quality of instruction as well as affordability for families. Our prices fall on the low-mid range of prices and for that reason we do not offer discounts at this time.

    Aligning with our mission, we want classes to accessible to everyone. If finances are a concern, please reach out as we are very willing to work with you and payment plans can be available on a case by case basis.

A chart detailing dress code examples for recreational dance classes. The top section shows children in suitable dance clothing, such as leotards, tights, and form-fitting outfits. The bottom section displays children in attire, including casual or revealing clothing, not approved for class.

Studio Policy Overview

At Radiate Studio, we believe that every student should feel confident, comfortable, and respected in their training environment. Our dress code reflects our commitment to professionalism, safety, modesty, and age-appropriate presentation while allowing students the freedom to move and perform at their best.

All students are expected to wear attire that provides adequate coverage during classes, rehearsals, performances, competitions, and any studio-sponsored events or appearances.

The following standards apply to all students:

  • Midriffs must remain mostly covered while standing, stretching, tumbling, dancing, and performing.

    • Crop tops may be allowed if 90% of the torso is covered and shorts are high-rise covering the belly button

  • Tops must provide full coverage of the chest and torso and should not resemble undergarments. Bra tops are not allowed.

  • Shorts, leggings, skirts, and other bottoms must provide appropriate coverage and fit securely during movement to avoid potential injury.

  • Clothing should be clean, well-fitting, and suitable for athletic activity.

  • Attire displaying inappropriate language, graphics, or messages is not permitted.

Radiate Studio reserves the right to determine whether attire meets studio standards and may require a student to modify or change clothing that does not comply with this policy.

As a studio founded on Christian values, we strive to promote confidence, dignity, and respect in how our students present themselves. Our goal is for every dancer and athlete to be recognized for their character, effort, and talent rather than their appearance.

Recreational Program Specific Dress Code

Students enrolled in recreational classes should wear comfortable athletic attire that allows for safe movement and proper instruction. Leotards, fitted athletic tops, dancewear, leggings, athletic shorts, joggers, and dance-specific attire are all acceptable.

To maintain a family-friendly and age-appropriate environment, midriffs should remain covered at all times. Short crop tops, bra-style tops, and other garments that expose more than 10% of the stomach are not permitted for recreational classes.

Hair should be secured away from the face, and students should wear the footwear specified for their class.

Please see specific dressing requirements for each program below:

Preschool Programs

Our Dress Code

  • Appropriate options to wear to class:

    • Any color leotard with or without an attached skirt

    • Detached slip on skirt or fitted shorts

    • Pink footed ballet tights or no tights if wearing shorts

    • Hair pulled back and out of the face

    • Pink (girls) or Black (boys) Leather full sole ballet slipper

      • We recommend the Daisy from Capezio. We recommend leather because they are much more durable, last longer, and stretch/form to your dancers foot when dancing in them.

      • We require full sole shoes for small children because the resistance of the sole helps the child to build the foot intrinsic muscles needed for proper safe progression in dance.

      • Do not cut the elastic strings from the shoes once you tighten them on your childs foot. These can be untied later to make the shoe bigger as your child grows throughout the season, increasing the longevity of your childs shoe.
