Class procedures
-
We have ongoing enrollment, meaning you can start mid-month and tuition will be prorated accordingly.
-
Parents are only allowed on the floor during Fundamental Open Gym and with children enrolled in Tuff Tumblers. We ask the parents to respect our rules and ask for assistance if they need to contact their child in class.
-
We have a few options for viewing classes. We have a second-level mezzanine for parent viewing— access is outside to the right of our entrance; we also have to view windows inside the facility for parents and spectators.

For Aerials Arts, tight-fitting leotard with leggings. For safety: nothing baggy, no bare skin showing, trimmed nails, and no metal jewelry.

Bare feet (for better traction on beams and trampolines.)
Long hair pulled back.

Billing and payment questions
-
There is no membership fee.
-
Our group classes tuition is paid monthly, and private lessons or other special events are paid per event. See our schedule for the tuition for each class and special events. Note: Tuition rates are set to increase every fall.
-
Tuition is due on the first of the month; credit cards will be charged on the first.
We operate on a perpetual enrollment basis. Perpetual enrollment means that your child’s spot in class is automatically reserved upon timely receipt of your monthly tuition payment. Tuition statements are sent via email in advance; please ensure that we have your preferred email address.
All tuition billing at Los Gatos Elite is set up as automatic billing. Upon registering for a class, you will be asked to provide bank account information for electronic check transfer or credit card information for automatic credit card billing. Your payment will be automatically charged on the 1st of each month.
Unfortunately, the students with an unpaid account after 48 hours will be automatically removed from the class, and another student may take their place. If your credit card is either expired or declined, we will first reach out with an email, so please ensure that we have your preferred email address.
-
No, we do not prorate for missed classes. We understand that unforeseen events may prevent you from attending a scheduled class. As a courtesy to our currently enrolled students, we offer makeup classes for any missed classes.
However, please note that missed classes do not have a cash value, and refunds are not provided. We value your understanding and continued enrollment in our program. Please schedule a makeup for missed classes.
