Studio Rental and Reservation Policies
Our spaces are in high demand, and space rental is on a first come, first serve basis. All rentals must be scheduled with Joy of Motion Management Staff. Rental rates may be adjusted at Joy of Motion Management’s discretion. We reserve the right, at any time, to cancel or alter studio rental times, studio assignments, and studio locations.
Rentals are for rehearsals, private lessons (defined as no more than 2 students) or free auditions only. Classes, workshops, master classes, etc., are not allowed at any location without prior arrangement with Joy of Motion Dance Center’s Programs and Services Department.
All rentals must be scheduled via email at jjohnson@joyofmotion.org. Phone reservations are not accepted.
All renters must present rental confirmation with each rental when checking in via a print confirmation or on a smart phone.
The renter, or designated representative, must be on the premises for all requested rentals. Alternate designated representative must be approved and communicated in advance of the rental.
All rentals must sign in for each rental and will be checked out by Joy of Motion staff at the end of each rental. All rentals must leave the premises with Joy of Motion Staff, unless otherwise arranged with Joy of Motion Management.
All cancellations must be received by the Studio Manager at least 24 hours prior to rental, or if renting on the weekend, by 2:00 p.m. the preceding Friday. If the space is not cancelled with 24-hour notice, the renter will be charged the rental rate in full. Contracted rental space that has been cancelled for 3 consecutive weeks will be removed from the schedule.
Resident Arts Partners must renew and confirm rentals each semester. Joy of Motion classes and workshops have priority over all time slots on the studio schedule.
Evening and weekend renters must allow the work study staff to clean the studios by the end of their shifts. Best efforts will be made to not impede upon any rehearsal.
All renters must remove all personal items and dispose of trash in appropriate waste receptacles.
All paid rentals must be paid in full prior to the date the rental takes place. All rentals must be coordinated with Joy of Motion Management Staff.
Any renter not in compliance with these policies may result in the loss of rental privileges.
