How does pricing work?
A Breakdown of costs...

There are four different dance class tracks you can register for. You can enroll in 3 regular classes each day for all 3 days, for a total of (9) classes per dance track. Unlike the past four years, Boogiezone 5 is now OPEN LEVEL, similar to our weekly community classes, each class is structured to be taught as an Intermediate/Advanced level, but is open to anyone with the determination to learn -- you can be an aspiring beginner or a professional. It doesn't matter! Now, you can choose which track of classes to take based on which style or teacher you want to take from. There are (2) Hip Hop tracks and (2) Contemporary ones. This is considered our Regular Class Package. The cost of just these 9 Classes is $150.

Each day, after a short dinner break, we resume with our Specialty Classes: Foundation based Styles like Lockin', Robot, Poppin', How to Freestyle + more! The cost of ADDING these 6 classes to your regular class package will be an additional $50. So for a total of 15 classes the cost of BZU 5 is $200. Note: If you do not want to register for regular classes, but want to enroll in the Specialty ones only, you can for a cost of $75. You will eventually have to choose which 6 of the 12 Specialty classes offered you want to take.

GO FULLOUT WITH THE ALL ACCESS PASS!

This is the coolest thing you could ever take advantage of! Can't decide on which class to take because they are all so good? Purchase the All Access "flex" pass which allows you to take any class of any style, level, and from any teacher you wish! All you do is add an additional $50 for a total of $250! Compared to other weekend dance conventions, and intensives, this is a great deal! Are you ready for this?

(NEW) SPECIAL INCENTIVE FOR GROUPS

Do you have a group of 5 or more that want to attend BZU? Register (5) Students for the ALL ACCESS PASS at once, or order them consecutively (being sure to note which organization you are representing) and the group will receive the 6th package for FREE!
