August Newsletter- Show Up Show Courage

Our theme for August is to show up and show courage.  It can be hard to start a new school year and we all feel a little less sure in the world right now.  How are we asking dancers to show up and show courage this month?

  1. Get our of your comfort zone when it comes to meeting new people at DC.  It’s going to be a little harder with everyone in masks – that’s why we need YOU to reach out, introduce yourself, and make some new friends.
  2. Try movement in class that feels uncomfortable.  Go for it!  If this is your first ever hip hop class, you might feel silly in the beginning.  If you just dive in and get over your fears you’ll progress so much faster.  
  3. SHOW UP for class.  All the way.  On time, in dress code, with your best attitude and a commitment to yourself that you are going to do your best.

COVID Procedures

We will be continuing to require masks inside the studio.  We’ll also be temperature checking all dancers as they come in.  Anyone with a temperature over 100 degrees will not be allowed in the studio.

You can help us keep our numbers of people inside the studio down by dropping your dancer off and then running an errand or hanging out in your car.  Especially over the first month of classes, if your dancer is already comfortable at DC, leave the waiting room area for parents of new dancers.

Dress Code

Our theme for August is to “Show up and show courage.”  Showing up is so much more than just coming to class.  When you really show up in life, you come prepared and with your best effort.  Part of that means coming in dress code.  You can find the dress code here.  Competition team dancers can get their class’s specific dress code on their team web site through the Parent Portal.  If you have any questions, feel free to shoot us an email.

Office Hours Next Week

Do you need new shoes or a leotard?  Don’t wait until the first day of class!  We’ll be open to do shoe fittings:
