Discover Stagecoach with a Two-Week Trial<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starting a new activity is exciting and there\u2019s no better way to discover something than by jumping in and giving it a try!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Two-Week Trial gives your child the chance to experience Stagecoach for themselves, meet their teachers and classmates, make new friends and discover the joy of singing, dancing and acting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For two weeks, they\u2019ll join one of our regular classes in Guelph and experience everything that makes Stagecoach special: creativity, confidence, friendship, teamwork and lots of fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They might discover a new passion. They might surprise themselves. They might walk out of their very first class already asking, \u201cWhen can I come back?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No auditions. No previous experience needed. Just come along, join the fun and discover where Stagecoach could take your child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And once they\u2019ve found their Stagecoach family, they can continue their journey with us for the full term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Try Stagecoach for Two Weeks?<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two weeks gives them time to settle in.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Walking into a new class for the first time can feel like a big step, especially for a shy or nervous child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two weeks gives your child time to get comfortable, meet their teachers and classmates, and discover what Stagecoach is all about. They don’t have to make a decision after just one class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Experience the Real Stagecoach<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike other program trials, your child doesn’t sit on the sidelines watching a demonstration. During their first two weeks they’ll join the class and take part in the same singing, dancing and acting activities as the rest of the group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They’ll learn songs, try dance routines, explore characters, play theatre games and have fun, all while building confidence and making new friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 See the Difference for Yourself<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes the best way to know whether something is right for your child is simply to try it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You may notice them coming out of class with a little more confidence, talking about a new friend or proudly showing you something they’ve learned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And if they love it? Great! They’re already part of the Stagecoach family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What If My Child Is Shy?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s exactly why we give students two weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some children walk through the door ready to take centre stage. Others need a little time to find their confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There’s no expectation that your child will perform a solo on day one. Our teachers know how to encourage nervous students, challenge confident performers and help every child feel that they belong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They can take their time. We’ll be there to support them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do I book a Trial?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Registering for our classes is easy!

There’s no complicated application process and no audition.

Here’s how it works:

1. Choose your class
<\/strong>Pick a class in Guelph that suits your child’s age and schedule.

2. Register through our system
<\/strong>Complete the online registration for our class with your details and at the end of the registration process you’ll be offered to pay in full or to pay a deposit – pay only the deposit at this point – that will give you access to the first two weeks of class so your child can see if this is a fit for them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


3. Come and experience Stagecoach
<\/strong>Once you’ve registered – you will then receive your welcome email with all of your class details. We will welcome your child to our program where they will get to know the teachers, students and Stagecoach experience.

4. Decide if it’s right for you
<\/strong>If after the two weeks of class, your child loves Stagecoach and you’d like to continue, your deposit is put towards your term fees. If, after two weeks, you decide it’s not the right fit for them, no further commitment is required.

That’s it!

You don’t need to make a long-term decision before your child has even experienced a class. Book now, try it for two weeks, and then decide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What deposit do I need for the two-week trial<\/strong><\/strong>?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To join the two-week trial, all you need to do is pay a deposit when you book. This deposit holds your spot for the class and gives you access to the first two weeks so your child can try the program. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Early Stages: $56 deposit<\/strong>
Main Stages: $100 deposit<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you decide to continue with Stagecoach, your deposit is credited towards your term fees and we’ll send you an invoice for the balance. If, after the first two weeks of class you decide Stagecoach isn’t right for your child, no further commitment is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deposits are non-refundable. Your deposit covers your child’s two trial weeks, and if you decide not to continue, you won’t owe anything more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
