Autumn Term News 2024
What a wonderful first Term of classes for 2024.
It was wonderful to meet so many new dancers and amazing to have all our dancers back in the studio and keen to dance their hearts out in 2024.
Please rest assured all dancers have been transferred to our Autumn Term and booked into the same program. Please email the office if you would like to make any variation to your enrolment.
Our Monday afternoon Tap/Jazz and Hip Hop programs are at capacity and can not accept any new enrolments at this time. If you are looking for additional classes for your 5/6 year old dancer - please consider our Thursday, Friday or Saturday class offerings.
MID YEAR RECITAL
This Term will see us commence our routines for the Mid Year Recital. A few classes have learnt small movement phrases at the end of the Summer Term as they were so excited to start working on their routines. Technique work will continue each week, along with learning our routines and costume fittings.
In the lead up to our Mid Year Recital we ask that students try not to miss any classes. This will give them the best chance of feeling confident when they are on stage. Dancers are welcome to bring iPads or phones to record themselves so they can practice at home. We do, however request that you don't watch them practice as we like to give you a little surprise on the day.
Mid Year Recital information will be in your mailbox and minute and can also be downloaded at the bottom of this newsletter.
