  • Until when can I register for a class?

    Dependant on course and age group it’s possible to join monthly or at the start of the semester. However, the latest month to join is  January to allow enough time to learn the choreographies for the recital. (At the discretion of the teacher you may be able to join later but you might not be able to participate in all choreographies.)

  • I registered online. What’s next?

    After successful registration our registration system will send you an email confirming the selected courses or workshops. If you did not receive an email, please check your spam folder or contact us directly at office@broadwayconnection.at

    In the email you find a link to a pre-filled PDF registration form. Have it signed by your parents/legal guardian and bring it to our reception before your first lesson. (For auditions and the “Ferienspiel” we do not require a PDF registration form.)

    For registration forms not signed in our studio, a cancellation period of 14 calendar days applies (§11 Abs. 1 Fern- und Auswärtsgeschäftegesetz, FAGG). You can withdraw from the contract within this period without giving reasons.

  • Can I also visit your courses one lesson at a time?

    No, that’s not possible. However, for a chance to test our courses you can book one trial lesson for each class for only € 10. For organisational reasons we ask you to register online.

    Our Adult & Professional courses can be booked one lesson at a time. A single dance lesson is € 18. A DanceCard (10 lessons) costs € 165 and is valid for 4 months.

  • Do I need to register for trial lessons?

    At the beginning of the school year we ask you to register online for organisational reasons. Later in the year you can just come to our studio and take a trial lesson for € 10. If you liked the class, you can sign up right afterwards!

  • For which period is my course registration?

    The course registration is for the whole school year (September – June)!

  • I cannot come to dance in the 2nd semester

    You can cancel your class for the 2nd semester easily. Please send your written (i.e. email or letter; no WhatsApp, SMS, etc.!) cancellation until December 8.

  • Do you have dress recommendations for the different courses?

    Girls: Tricots in the colours black, grey or purple; ballet tights

  • I am sweaty after dance class. Do you have showers?

    Yes, we have showers in our dressing rooms for boys and girls.

  • Can I buy something to drink there?

    No, please bring a non-spillable, unbreakable drinking bottle. You can refill it between the classes at the water-tap in the entrance area.

  • I would like to spend some time in the studio before/after dance class. Is this possible?

    Yes, certainly. You are allowed to stay at the Broadway Connection as long as you desire. Only condition is that you are wellbehaved and that you are not disturbing other visitors.

    Attention: The supervision obligation of Broadway Connection starts when the teacher welcomes the students for the class and terminates when the class ends.

  • How can I pay?

    Either in cash or with debit card (bankomat/ATM) at the reception or via bank transfer:
    IBAN: AT742011128137045300
    BIC: GIBAATWW (Erste Bank)
