Harmonic Policies

Covid:

  • Proof of Vaccination:  For in person lessons all eligible individuals 12 and over must provide proof of vaccination. Please contact us if you are unable to be vaccinated for medical or religious reasons.  All of our staff is vaccinated.
  • Masks: Everyone who enters harmonic will be required to wear a mask.
  • You must wear your mask correctly covering both your nose and mouth at all times. If you remove your mask during your lesson or inside harmonic you will be asked to leave immediately. Please bring your own mask.
  • Our waiting room will be closed to help with social distancing. Once it is time for your lesson you may enter. No siblings, friends, or guests will be able to attend the lessons or wait inside.

Scheduling Lessons:

  • Please contact us by phone (202) 248-8863 or email (info@harmonicmusicstudios.org) to select a day and a time that lessons will occur.
  • We will follow up after the first lesson to confirm that you would like to continue.
  • You are not committing to lessons for a certain amount of time (by the month or semester) and with more than 24 hours of notice, you can stop lessons. Otherwise, that lesson day and time is yours until you give us 24 hours of notice to stop all future lessons.
  • If you are unable to commit to a weekly lesson on the same day and time, we can schedule single lessons when they are available.  Scheduling single lessons will be dependent upon that teacher’s availability.

Cancelling or Rescheduling Lessons

  • There are no lesson cancellations. You may stop lessons entirely with 24 hours of notice, but you cannot cancel a single lesson.
    • Harmonic will be closing for Spring Break 2022 that aligns with DCPS schedule: Friday, April 8th through Sunday, April 18th 2022.  If your child’s spring break occurs at a different time, you may request a 1 time cancellation for 1 lesson.
  • You may reschedule lessons with more than 24 hours of notice. You will still be charged on your original lesson day and then have 2 weeks to reschedule based on availability with your teacher.
  • Teacher cancellations – In the event your teacher is unavailable due to illness or other circumstances, you will be notified and there will be no charge for that lesson.
  • To take a break from lessons, we require  24 hours notice.  All lessons will be cancelled  and you will give up your spot with that teacher on the chosen day and time.  When you are ready to return to lessons, we will find a new day and time with your teacher of choice if they have availability. Alternatively, you can continue to pay weekly to keep your chosen spot with your teacher until you are ready to resume lessons.
  • Lessons do not automatically stop at any time. Until we are given notice that you would like to stop lessons, they will continue through semesters, seasons, and into the summer.
  • Harmonic Closures – Harmonic will be closed for some holidays and other seasonal breaks. Please click here for a current calendar.
  • If a student is 15 minutes or more late, they are considered a no-show, and you will be charged for the missed lesson.
