Wednesday What's-Up

Hello Dancers and Families:

I hope this message finds everyone well,

The studio is extremely busy this week so please read this message carefully. I know it is a lot, but email is the best way I can communicate with all of our families, so always read our messages to find out the news for all our dancers, and you can also check the boards in the studio.

Don't forget tuition is due by the 10th. The venmo link is attached to this message, or feel free to pay in the the or through the portal.

On a side note: Thank you parents and student drivers, for your continued co-operation with our parking lot and parking on the side of the building.  I know it is not always convenient to take the extra minute to walk your child in, but for the purpose of our neighbors and your child's safety, I appreciate you taking the time to walk your dancer in to the studio.

And now the news...

Ballet and Winter Recital commitment forms for our January 28th team and Little Mermaid  themed ballet, are attached to this message and available in the studio.  THIS IS THE BALLET RECITAL FOR THE YEAR. BALLET DANCERS DO NOT PERFORM IN JUNE. (If every class performed a piece we would have a 4 hour recital). The recital is optional, and if your dancer is unable to join us, kindly return the form and check the box, not dancing.  Dancers will be measured at the studio for costumes and costumes will only be ordered for dancers who return the form on time with payment. The supply issue is still a problem, I can not guarantee any costume after the due date. If you have any issues or problems just let me know.  Dancers in ballet classes: combo- Ballet IV, will be learning their piece during class time.  Recital information including dress rehearsal, tickets and studio picture day will be out soon.
