I hope everyone had a Happy Holiday and Happy New Year! The Holiday break went by very fast and the winter season came quickly. I hope it doesn't last too long because everyone would rather stay home wrapped up in their snuggie! Many new faces have come to the studio and I am so happy they made some resolutions for the new year! We must focus on staying motivated to move our bodies and exercise! Sweating in the winter is still good for you and keeping in shape comes in handy when we have to shovel all the snow!
We all indulged a little more over the holidays but the best resolution is to move your body and get fit with dance!!!
Costume deposits will be due in January for our performance that is scheduled for June. More details will be handed out at the studio.
The studio is busy with a lot of energetic students. We are having a great time learning technique in a fun way. My ballet classes are classically structured but they are also incorporated with some contemporary choreography. This is were the movement of dance is headed.
We have many non-competitive classes that I encourage pre-school- adult to join.
Our Adult classes geared from 16 and up have really been busy and I am so happy about that because my younger days of dancing when I was 19, I remember very big adult classes! You are never too old and if it was ever your passion you have to try it out! Dance Fitness has also been so much fun and the work-out is great.
****Special sign up for 5 Walk-in classes (40.00) and recieve 1 Free*****

We also offer Latin Classes that have been very popular. I very much enjoy teaching this dance workout that works every inch of the body. I choreogragh many steps right through and many people who have never danced come in and have a really fun time. It is for the beginner-adv. and I welcome all ages from teens -adult.
This is an open class that is only 8.00.
