Ballet, Jazz
Hello! My name is Courtney Biagi.
I am 19 years old. I recently graduated from Borah High School and will be attending Boise State University. I started dancing when I was 13 yrs old. I trained at Dance Unlimited, taking ballet and jazz. During my senior year, I was on Borah Lionettes Dance Team. It was the first year Borah had had a dance team in quite a few years. We did very well considering! I'm currently taking ballet classes at Backstage Dance Center.
I love dancing with all my heart and I love helping children learn new things. Currently, I work at Creative Children's Center in Boise and have been there for almost a year! I love it! I am very excited to be a part of Inspired Dance and to have the opportunity to get to know even more children and help them learn and grow.

Jazz, Lyrical, Hip Hop
Hi y'all! My name is Courtney Burrow.
I was born and raised here in Boise, ID. At the young age of 3, my parents enrolled me at the Kennedy School of Dance in Nampa for my first ballet class. Even at a young age, my passion for dance was strong. From there I went on to Centre Stage Dance Academy and competed on their company team for 14 years. I was trained in just about every genre of dance there is including tap, ballet, lyrical, hip hop, jazz, contemporary, and more. I was able to travel to many different states to compete against dancers from all across the country. Though competing was fun, I want to spread the message to my students that getting 1st place or competing to be the best isn't what matters. It's about enjoying the experiences we get to have throughout life.
Currently I am attending Boise State University as a Music Business major, and enjoy teaching dance in my spare time.

Payment Policy
1. Payment Made to Inspired Dance (non parks and rec classes): Payment is due ON or BEFORE the first day of class each month, for month to month classes. Classes set up as 2 payments during a 10-12 week session must make the First payment on day 1 and the Second payment on the 5th or 6th class day. A reminder email/message will be sent for all classes. However, if payment is not made within 5 business days of the email reminder, a $12 late fee will be due in addition to the monthly fee.
*I have read the payment guidelines and general policies. I agree to uphold the payment process and policies of Inspired Dance. I acknowledge that failure to uphold policies will result in my child not being able to participate. I also acknowledge that failure to pay by or before the 15th of the month will result in a $12 late fee.
2. Payment Made to Meridian Parks and Rec: Parks and Recreation requires that payment be made on or before the first day of class each month. Online payment cannot be made after 7am on the first day of class. Payment must then be made over the phone. If payment still has not been made, a reminder email/message will be sent. However, if payment is not made by or before the 15th of the month, you risk having to pay both Meridian parks and rec and Inspired Dance the required monthly tuition. Why? Because after the 15th, parks and rec pulls class rosters. If you pay after the 15th, and class rosters have been pulled, Inspired Dance will not get their payment portion from parks and recreation, therefore you will also have to pay Inspired Dance.
*I have read the payment guidelines and general policies. I agree to uphold the payment process and policies of Inspired Dance. I acknowledge that failure to uphold policies will result in my child not being able to participate. I also acknowledge that failure to pay by or before the 15th of the month will put me at risk of paying double tuition to parks and rec and inspired dance.
