Happy New Year! Winter is finally her, but the dance studio always feels warm and bright. It’s been so fun to see the new leotards everyone got for Christmas!
Upcoming Holidays
We are OPEN on MLK day and Presidents day. We don’t want our Monday classes to be shorted, so we’ll be holding classes.
It’s especially important for our competition team members to be in classes as we gear up for the competition season so please plan accordingly.
Costume Fees
Spring Costume fees will be charged on January 15th. Costumes for all First Steps, Petite Performers, Rising Stars and our 4-7 year old Hip Hop classes are $75. All other classes are $85. These costumes are yours to keep after the show and the ones you’ll wear for your class pictures!
TNT
Our next TNT clinic is January 24th 11:00-1:00. Come get two hours of makeup credit with Miss Blakelee and a surprise guest teacher! Register in your Parent Portal or at the front desk.
Word of the Month: Reliable
Knowing that you are reliable, to yourself and others is a huge part of developing confidence. Be reliable to your class. Be reliable to yourself.
Adult Class Schedule
If you haven’t tried out our adult class yet, you are missing out on a really good time! Plus it probably supports your New Year’s goals in some way 🙂 Come join us, Monday nights at 7:30. Drop in cost is just $15. No experience necessary, no performing, no expectations!
Student of the Month – Sophia Dame!
Sophia is a dream to teach. Love her enthusiasm, energy and effort! Team player all the way. She can always be caught being on task and putting in extra work! When she gets a correction she uses that as fuel to better herself. Sophia has such an amazing attitude and her cheery personality is contagious! We ALL ADORE our Sophia!!! ❤️❤️❤️
