Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
summer classes at our dance studio are

1 -1 hour class for 11 weeks is $149!.00
3 - 1 hour class for 11 weeks is $329!.00

Ballet slippers $13!.00-$22!.00
Tap shoes about $32!.00
Leotard $20!.00-45!.00
Tights $10!.00-20!.00
pointe shoes $70!.00-120!.00
Above prices are for adults!. Little ones could use shoes and leos from Payless or Wal-mart!.

Costumes for recitals $60!.00-120!.00
Most of ours run $80!.00

Plan on paying anywhere from $8!.00 to 15!.00 per hour per classWww@QuestionHome@Com

Yeah it is one of the more expensive SPORTS!. You should be in a dance class at least three times a week if you're serious about it (a year after you first start), so that's 50 dollars a month per class (150 dollars total) times 10 (the usual legnth of a ballet year) with is $1,500 just for class!. Then after leotards, tights and shoes, it's probably another $250!. And then you have costumes, which are really expensive!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

right i do 1 lesson a week and for just that lesson in a turm (which is 10 weeks)it comes to £52
but for clothing ballet flats about £14 leotard £13 tights £8 and skirt £13 but pointe shoes about £40 i think so yer it is quiet expensiveWww@QuestionHome@Com
