Terms & Conditions
General
MaxStudios employs certified teachers and teachers in training. MaxStudios offers interns the opportunity to gain teaching experience. Courses will only take place if there are sufficient participants. It is not permitted to use the teaching material of the teachers or choreographers for performances elsewhere without permission. No images/film material may be placed on the internet (for example social media such as YouTube and Facebook) without permission from MaxStudios.
Trial lesson
It is possible to take a trial lesson. The participant must actually participate in the lesson. Only watching is not possible. Parents/guardians of participants up to 17 years of age may come and watch the last ten minutes of the trial lesson. If no trial lesson is taken, but the lessons are registered immediately, the parents/guardians of participants up to 17 years of age may come and watch the last ten minutes of the first lesson.
Registration
By submitting a fully completed and signed registration form, you register for the dance lessons. Only then can you participate in the lessons. You can get this registration form from the dance teacher in the lesson or download it via www.maxstudios.nl. By signing this form, you declare that you agree with the general terms and conditions. The registration form must be signed by the person liable for payment. This is an adult from 18 years of age; or is the father and/or mother, guardian and/or custodian, one of the carers or legal representatives of a minor. If you join later in a payment period, the contribution due will be adjusted pro rata: i.e. the lessons prior to the registration will be deducted from the tuition fee of the current payment period. If you want to switch to another lesson day or lesson time during a payment period, this is only possible after consultation with Mr Max Odarty, the owner of the dance school. Without cancellation, the membership of the lessons will be automatically extended.
Payment method
You pay the tuition fee via an authorisation for direct debit. The tuition fee is collected once per payment term. It is important that there is sufficient balance on your bank account and that you provide an IBAN number without a direct debit block. For direct debit, it applies that you must ensure a problem-free payment of the contribution. If it is not possible for us to collect the amount due, we reserve the right to charge a cancellation fee of € 10, - and to deny access until the amount due has been paid. The collection of the tuition fee starts the next lesson, after a (possible) trial lesson. In the case of a new registration, a one-off registration fee of € 15, - is paid on top of the tuition fee. Absence of a student during lessons does not release the student from the obligation to pay. Failure to attend one or more lessons does not entitle the student to a partial or full refund of the tuition fee. Subscriptions cannot be suspended. Automatic collection of a Passe-Partout membership (unlimited lessons) takes place monthly.
You can read the current rates of the lessons on www.maxstudios.nl. You can also read here when there are no lessons due to holidays and how many lessons fall within each payment period.
MaxStudios uses three payment terms per year:
The automatic collection of tuition fees takes place at the beginning of September, January and April. The current rates can be found at www.maxstudios.nl
Cancellation
Cancellations can only be made at the end of a payment period. With a notice period of 1 month. Cancellations can only take effect on (for example):
- January 1 (send cancellation letter before December 1)
- April 1 (send cancellation letter before March 1)
- September 1 (send cancellation letter before August 1)
You can send the cancellation, with the signature of the person liable for payment, to: MaxStudios, Parelmoerwolk 9, 6846 DP Arnhem or by e-mail to info@maxstudios.nl with a scan of the signature of the person liable for payment in the attachment. The date of receipt of the cancellation is decisive for the handling of this. If you do not cancel in time, you remain liable for payment, even if you do not use the facilities within the dance school. No refund will be given for subscriptions that are taken out with a discount for the entire dance season in the event of early termination.
Changes
It is in the interest of the student of MaxStudios that changes in personal data (such as address, telephone number, name of the student, person liable for payment, etc.) are communicated to MaxStudios in writing as soon as possible. The personal data provided by the student are included in the automated student administration. This is necessary for the responsible execution of the administration of MaxStudios. These data will under no circumstances be provided to third parties.
Cancellation of lessons
In the event of a student being unable to attend, no refund will be made and missed lessons cannot be made up. In the event of a teacher being unable to attend, lessons can be made up at another time, in mutual consultation.
Right of MaxStudios
The management of MaxStudios can decide to deny a student access to the lessons, for example in case of serious payment arrears or due to misconduct. The obligation to pay the tuition fee then remains. Unforeseen circumstances can lead to changes in the lesson schedule. MaxStudios reserves the right to deviate from the information provided, such as names of teachers, times and prices. In cases not provided for in these general terms and conditions, MaxStudios decides.
Liability
Members are responsible for consulting a general practitioner in the event of health complaints and/or injuries. MaxStudios cannot be held liable for any physical injury, damage or loss of property suffered during lessons and/or demo team training. This also applies to the outward and return journey from lessons, workshops, performances and competitions.

Membership via GelrePas, Jeugdfonds Cultuur or Stichting Leergeld If you want to pay for dance lessons via GelrePas, Jeugdfonds Cultuur or Stichting Leergeld, membership will be issued for a period of one year. Any remaining amount, the amount that is not reimbursed by the organization, will be collected from the IBAN number stated on the registration form. Without timely cancellation, an extension of the membership will be requested, and any remaining amount will be collected based on the applicable rates at that time. If you want to have membership via GelrePas, you must attach a copy of the GelrePas to the registration form. In the case of membership via Stichting Leergeld, MaxStudios will draw up an invoice that the applicant can forward to Stichting Leergeld together with a recent payslip.
Dancecrew
Dance crew subscriptions are concluded for an entire dance season. A dance crew contract is drawn up for each member. It is in the interest of the entire crew that the members participate in every training. This is to be able to create a perfect choreography with the associated movements together, and to participate in performances and national competitions. If a dance crew member is unexpectedly unable to participate in a training, he or she must report this to MaxStudios by telephone or e-mail. The tuition fee for the dance crew trainings is collected monthly. If a dance crew member decides in the meantime to no longer participate in the crew, the payment obligation remains.
