To Participate in this fun event, there is a $45.00 Recital/Costume Fee per dancer, per class, this must be received no later than Saturday, Oct. 1^st.  This Fee covers the cost of the theater rental, tech & stage crew, stage props, printing for programs & tickets, purchasing, recording & editing music, and your dancer’s performance shirt or leotard with accessories.  This Holiday Show is NOT our annual recital, it’s an opportunity for your dancer to perform on stage, learn the in’s and out’s of performance life, experience applause, and to reap the rewards of hard work and dedication.

 How do I get to Nicholas J. Horn Theater?  (CSN Performing Arts Theater)

The theater is located at 3200 E. Cheyenne Ave, between Pecos and Civic Center Dr., on the campus of the College of Southern Nevada.  Access to the theater is through the northwest entrance.

TUITION: Tuition is due the first week of each month.  Tuition remains the same regardless of absences or the length of the month (3-week/5-week).  No statement will be sent unless your account is overdue.  There is a 15% late fee if tuition is past due and a $20 return check fee.  Tuition may be hand delivered or mailed directly to Kids in Motion.  If you decide to withdraw your child, you must notify us in writing tow weeks prior to the last class your dancer attends or you will be charged for the classes your dancer is registered for.  We will continue billing every month and guarantee to reserve your dancers place in the class until we are notified in writing by you.
