Terms of Service for 5678 Dance Life

Last Updated: October 19, 2025

Welcome to 5678 Dance Life ("Company," "we," "us," or "our"). We provide a nationwide online platform that connects individuals seeking dance instruction ("Students") with independent professional dance instructors ("Instructors").

By creating an account, booking a lesson, or otherwise using our website, services, and platform (collectively, the "Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. Please read them carefully.

THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS A MANDATORY ARBITRATION PROVISION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER THAT REQUIRES THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES.

1. The 5678 Dance Life Service

Our Service is a neutral marketplace. We are a technology platform that facilitates the connection between Students and Instructors for private dance lessons, which may occur in-person at a location agreed upon by the Student and Instructor, or online.

We are not a dance studio and do not directly employ the Instructors. Instructors are independent contractors who have agreed to use our platform to market and sell their services. We are not a party to the agreement formed between a Student and an Instructor.

2. Instructor Relationship

All Instructors on our platform are independent contractors, not employees, partners, agents, or joint venturers of 5678 Dance Life. Each Instructor operates an independent business. As such:

  • We do not control the manner or method of instruction.

  • Instructors are responsible for their own taxes, insurance, and business expenses.

  • Instructors set their own availability and may determine the content of their lessons.

  • While we facilitate background checks as part of our vetting process, we do not guarantee the conduct of any Instructor and are not responsible for their actions or omissions.

3. Account Registration and User Conduct

To use our Service, you must register for an account and provide accurate and complete information. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials.

You agree to use our Service in compliance with all applicable local, state, and national laws. You agree not to:

  • Misrepresent your identity or qualifications.

  • Contact other users for any purpose other than arranging, conducting, or receiving dance lessons through the Service.

  • Use the service for any unlawful, harassing, or fraudulent purpose.

  • Disrupt or interfere with the security or use of the Service.

4. Booking, Payments, and Cancellations

Booking: Students can book private lessons with Instructors through the Service at the rates listed. When you book a lesson, you are entering into a direct contract with the Instructor.

Payments: All payments for lessons must be processed through our secure payment gateway. You authorize us to charge your selected payment method for the total amount of any booking request.

Cancellations and Refunds: We understand that plans change. Our cancellation policy is as follows:

  • Cancellation by Student: Lessons cancelled more than 24 hours in advance will be fully refunded or credited. Lessons cancelled with less than 24 hours' notice are non-refundable, as this time has been reserved for you by the Instructor.

  • Cancellation by Instructor: If an Instructor cancels a lesson at any time, the Student will receive a full refund or credit.

  • No-Shows: If a Student fails to attend a scheduled lesson without prior notice, no refund or credit will be issued.

We reserve the right to modify this policy and will provide notice of any material changes.

5. Health, Safety, Assumption of Risk, and Liability Waiver

Dance is a strenuous physical activity that carries inherent risks of injury, including but not limited to muscle strains, sprains, fractures, and other serious injuries. By booking a lesson and participating in any dance instruction facilitated through our Service, you acknowledge and agree to the following:

A. Assumption of Risk: You voluntarily assume all risks, known and unknown, associated with dance activities, including the risk of physical or psychological injury, pain, suffering, disability, temporary or permanent death, and property damage. You understand that these injuries or outcomes may arise from your own or others' negligence, the condition of the lesson location, or other causes.

B. Health and Safety Acknowledgment: You represent that you are in good physical condition and have no medical condition that would prevent your full participation. You are responsible for consulting with a physician prior to and regarding your participation. You agree to disclose any medical conditions or physical limitations to your Instructor before the lesson begins.

C. Release and Waiver of Liability: In consideration for being permitted to participate in dance lessons, you, for yourself and on behalf of your heirs, assigns, personal representatives, and next of kin, hereby release, indemnify, and hold harmless 5678 Dance Life, its officers, agents, employees, and affiliates (the "Releasees") from any and all claims, liabilities, demands, actions, or causes of action whatsoever arising out of or related to any loss, damage, or injury, including death, that may be sustained by you, whether caused by the negligence of the Releasees or otherwise.

D. In-Person Lesson Locations: For in-person lessons, you are responsible for ensuring the safety and suitability of the lesson location. 5678 Dance Life does not inspect, own, or control lesson locations and is not responsible for any injuries or damages that occur at these locations.

6. Intellectual Property

The 5678 Dance Life platform, including our website, logos, text, graphics, and software, is the property of 5678 Dance Life and is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws.

Original choreography taught by Instructors remains the intellectual property of the Instructor. You may not record, reproduce, or publicly distribute choreography without the explicit written permission of the Instructor.

7. Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability

Disclaimer of Warranties: The Service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We expressly disclaim all warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to the warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We make no warranty that the service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free.

Limitation of Liability: To the fullest extent permitted by law, in no event shall 5678 Dance Life, its affiliates, directors, or employees, be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including without limitation, personal injury, loss of profits, data, or other intangible losses, resulting from:

  • Your use of or inability to use the Service.

  • The conduct or content of any third party, including any Instructor or Student.

  • Any services provided by an Instructor.

  • Unauthorized access to or alteration of your transmissions or data.

Our total liability to you for any and all claims arising out of your use of the Service is limited to the amount you have paid to us in the 12 months preceding the claim.

8. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless 5678 Dance Life and its affiliates, officers, directors, and employees from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs or debt, and expenses (including but not limited to attorney's fees) arising from your use of the Service, your violation of these Terms, or your interaction with any other user.

9. Governing Law, Dispute Resolution, and Arbitration

Governing Law: These Terms shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

Mandatory Arbitration: You and 5678 Dance Life agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof, shall be resolved by binding, individual arbitration and not in a class, representative or consolidated action or proceeding. This arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted in San Antonio, Texas, unless you and we agree otherwise.

Class Action Waiver: You and 5678 Dance Life agree that each may bring claims against the other only in your or its individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding.
