Enrollment Information
How is class tuition charged?
Classes at Action Arts are ongoing with no end date. Your first month is charged upon enrolling and may be a prorated rate, depending on how many weeks are left in the month you start. Going forward, tuition is billed on the first of every month until you drop the class. All families are required to be on auto-pay for monthly tuition billing and you must notify us in advance to drop your student, see how below. ​
​​
Prices
Parkour, Gymnastics, and Preschooler once per week classes are $140/month. 2nd classes for the same student are $10 off.
Performance classes are $200/month.
Siblings: For additional children in the same family, once per week classes are $130/month.
We have no annual registration fees.
How do I drop/cancel a class?
If you need to stop classes or cannot attend the same time anymore, a cancellation request is required to drop your student from their class at least 15 days before the end of the month.
You may notify us by cancelling in the online portal, giving a written drop notice to our office or emailing us to drop your student before the 16th day of the current month, which will cancel them starting the following month.
​
Please note: All fees are nonrefundable and WE DO NOT DROP STUDENTS BASED ON ATTENDANCE in order to hold that student's spot in the class. Therefore, we recommend submitting a request in advance, if you know when you'd like to drop a class.
Are prices the same for months with 3 classes and months with 5 classes?
Yes, Action Arts enrolls as an ongoing program with an equal monthly payment structure. Though some months will have fewer days for your class, some months will have more, resulting in approximately 47 classes for each day through the year. You can find our year calendar below, subject to change without notification.​​
Do you offer drop-in options?
Adult classes have drop-in offerings, however, children's classes require enrollment.
To drop-in for adults: make an account in our portal, add yourself as the student, and purchase a Class Pass. Once you have a pass, in your student profile select the pass, then select the class you'd like to register for.
Do you offer make-up classes?
Yes! Action Arts offers one make up class per month. The make up must be in the same class type which your student is enrolled AND must be scheduled online or with our front desk. This ensures that we do not exceed student to teacher ratios.
​​​
Missed classes will not result in refunds. Make up tokens must be used within 1 month of the missed class.
Do you offer trials?
While Action Arts doesn't offer single trial classes, we also don't charge a registration fee, so there are no fees on top of the class tuition.
The minimum length for enrollment is 1 month, so that we give the student a fair chance to experience everything the class has to offer, and then from there, you can make an educated decision about if they like it and want to continue or are not as interested in it as they thought.
Reason being is that sometimes, perhaps a class has been working on a skill for a while, and has finally put the individual moves together into one big move - and then one day there would be a new student for single trial class and the student sees what the class has been working on the past 3 weeks and thinks, "that's too hard" and decides they don't want to do the class - when that might not have been the case 3 weeks earlier, or even one week later, etc. So we like for our new students to try out 1 month of class to really get to see the range of things we do in classes and then make an informed decision from there.
If you would like to try class for 1 month, you may enroll your student and right after enrolling, submit a cancellation request to drop your student from the class at the end of one month.
Please note: This is a regular enrollment, therefore a cancellation request is REQUIRED to drop your student from their class. We highly recommend submitting the drop request along with your enrollment so that you are not charged for additional months of class.
What ages are your classes for?
All ages from walking toddlers to adults! Classes for kiddos participating without their parents on the gym floor start as young as 3 years old.
​
Kids 10 years or older automatically start in Level 2 classes regardless of experience level, as starting in Level 1 would have them mixed with too young of kids. With the coaches help, they will learn beginner skills quickly and tend to enjoy being with kids closer to their age. 8 and 9 years olds that are advancing through Level 1 skills quickly can move up to Level 2 classes.
​
Teen classes start from 14 years old, although there are multiple class offerings in the 11 year to 16 year old window that are not age based like the younger classes. If you have a preteen or teenager who doesn't know which class to join, please reach out to us to help assess which class they might enjoy most.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between Gymnastics and Parkour class?
Our Gymnastics classes are your traditional gymnastics skills - Cartwheels, Handstands, Handsprings, Balance Beam, Bars, etc. Parkour is similar, but it removes the Pointed Toes, "Sticking" a landing, and has students performing moves for efficiency and landing to continue running into another skill. For example - Gymnastics will use the Bars to learn Pullover, Back Hip Circle, and Cast to Handstand. Parkour will use the bars to swing through, release and pass over an obstacle, then land and continue running. Gymnastics will use the Balance Beams to learn to do a cartwheel on the beam. Parkour will use the beams to practice jumping and landing on a narrow surface - called "precision jumping".
Both classes have their benefits, and are enjoyable for all ages. If you aren't sure which your child will enjoy, try out both!
Where is Action Arts within the building complex?
​We suggest entering from Marina Bay Parkway if you have never been here before. You will see suite 31 directly from this entrance.
If entering from Meeker Avenue: turn Left. Make the 2nd Right turn and you will arrive at suite 31. There is abundant parking available at the back of the building.
Can guardians stay to watch the classes?
Absolutely! There is a seating area for parents! The downside is that it doesn't have open viewing of the gym floor due to the location of the bathroom, but we have a TV that streams a wide-angle of the whole gym.
...Now what's the difference between Parkour and Ninja?
"Ninja" typically refers to the obstacle course-style challenges seen on the namesake television show. The skills favor upper body strength, grip strength, and using mainly arms to swing & releasing between various obstacles, which can sometimes be unconventional in their design in order to present very unique and specific challenges.
Parkour favors running, jumping, leg strength and body flair to pass over common shape obstacles. Running along vertical walls to one-handed vault a high block, then land on the floor on the other side & shoulder roll to keep running. There are of course shared aspects between the two sports, and they can be similar at times and vary greatly at others.
If we're enrolled, Can we try a different class type?
Yes! If you are actively enrolled and your student has interest in parkour instead of gymnastics or vice versa, we can register them in a single class in addition to their current enrollment to help them decide which class they'd like to be in. This additional class will be charged at a drop in rate. If the other class your student is interested in is full, your student would have to join the waitlist and then do this trial when it is their turn to join the class.
When does my student move up to the next level?
When your student is ready for the next class level, their coach will let you know via an email or in person. You may also inquire with the front desk if they can be moved to the next level and their coach may approve or deny the request.
