1. Open Monday, October 9th- Columbus Day

We are holding classes are usually on Monday, October 9th. If you are not able to make it to class, please call/text/email to let us know!

2. Our Waiting Area is a Quiet Lobby that opens at 3:40 pm

We love the community that builds in our waiting room! We also recognize that can cause the lobby to get a little loud at times. That noise is starting to spill into the studios and affect the concentration in our classrooms.

We are asking for your help to make our lobby a “Quiet Lobby”.  To accomplish this, anyone using a device in the lobby will either need to keep the sound off or bring headphones to use.

If you are bringing siblings into the lobby to wait during class, please make sure to bring an activity with you! In order to keep everyone safe, we need to make sure there is no running (toddlers who can’t run fast are fine!). If your child has a hard time sitting still while in the lobby, we recommend waiting in the car or leaving them at home if at all possible.

For our afternoon classes, the waiting areas will be open starting at 3:40 p.m. This will allow our front desk staff plenty of time to get the waiting areas and studios ready for the night!

3. Winter Showcase!

We are so excited to hold our 2nd annual Winter Showcase at Dover High School on Saturday, January 20th! We will be having two performances.  Show 1 will be at 2:00 pm, Show 2 will be at 4:30 pm. Each show will be under 75 minutes. Class list and other important information will be released in the next few weeks.

If you have any questions or concerns about the date or time, please email [email protected]

Dance is always more fun with friends and we want to meet your friends.  We will be sending out more information on how you can get your friend into a free class with you this week. We are looking to grow our dance family and we would love to have more amazing people like you join our dance family! So as a thank you for bringing your friends to dance with you, we are offering a SPECIAL (see below)!

7. Halloween Week! 10/23-10/28

We are excited to be celebrating our favorite Spooky Season during our Halloween costume week! From 10/23-10/28 dancers can wear their Halloween costumes to class! Please make sure that dance attire is underneath the costume and that students are able to move in the costume during class time. We always have extra dress-up costumes available for anyone who forgets!

Does your dancer have an allergy? Let us know by filling out this form –> https://forms.gle/oh6wR4DFofMh32ZA9

8. Closed for Classes on 10/30 and 10/31

Many students have trick or treat therefore the studio will be closed for classes on 10/30 and 10/31. These classes will be made up on December 18th and 19th before the holiday break.

9. Boots & Slippers

Cold and bitter weather is on the horizon whether we like it or not! Please remember to take off your mucky boots when entering the studio. We understand feet get cold in the winter so it’s a great idea to bring a pair of slippers with you while your dancer is in class. You may also choose one of the seats in the carpet area if you wish to keep your shoes on.

10. Parking

A reminder that our driveway is one way. Overflow parking is available behind the building. We ask that you do not park on the grass out front as it is an emergency zone.

11. Sensory Costume Needs

If your dancer doesn’t do well with a certain type of fabric or has an allergy to something specific, please let us know so that we can be aware and plan accordingly!
