Thank you for registering for classes for Ballet in the City's 2021 Saratoga Residency, which is the organization's Fifth Year Anniversary of presenting programming in wonderful Saratoga Springs, New York, the summer home of the New York City Ballet, and a city that loves ballet and the arts!

**PLEASE READ PRIOR TO REGISTERING**

Please indicate for EACH CLASS if you would like to register (YES, I would like to attend) or if you do not (NO, thank you). This allows us to ensure each class option has been seen and choices have been made, which streamlines registration.

All payments for all classes are DUE IN FULL NO LATER than Tuesday, July 6, 2021. Outstanding Invoices past Tuesday, July 6, 2021 will be assessed a 15% late fee. All Invoices not paid as of 11:59pm on July 9, 2021 will be canceled and places in classes and activities will be lost. Invoices will be issued as soon as possible following registration.

ALL ACTIVITIES AND PROGRAMMING PAYMENTS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE. Additionally, classes may NOT be "exchanged" one for another. Once you have registered for a class, you have committed to it and cannot use funds remitted toward one class in payment for another. If you are unable to attend a class for which you have registered, those funds are not refundable or transferrable to another class.

PLEASE NOTE: Space for this programming is extremely limited and is available on a first come, first serve basis. Registration/ places in classes are held ONLY after payment in-full is made. Classes at capacity will be noted on the form as "CLOSED". Once you register (registration form completed in full and invoice paid) for programming, you will be added to Ballet in the City's 2021 Saratoga Springs Programming Email List. All additional "pop up" classes added to the schedule will be emailed to those registered and availability will open to those on the list only.*

NOTE REGARDING CLASS LEVELS: Please note that classes for which you register are completely at your discretion. Teachers will teach in accordance to the level they assess best for the class, and will suggest accommodations appropriately if needed. Please feel free to register for any class you feel is appropriate for you/ your dancer. There are no age or ability requirements or restrictions.

Please direct any questions to Ballet in the City Administrative Assistant Angelina Rutherford at angelina@balletinthecity.org. Thank you!
