Doors open 10 min prior to dance class for students. If you need an appointment please schedule one. The Livestream is so close. We'll be using Zoom. Originally, I wanted you to he able to access it without logging into Zoom, but we're running into coding issues.

The studio is currently working on getting everything online. This includes: class memberships, transactions, and store merchandise. If you do not see your class listed under your account, that is our fault. If you can log in, you are officially registered. Classes should be up and listed within a couple days. We are so sorry about the delay. We are also working on getting live stream setup, so you can online view your child taking class. Directions of how to view this, will be posted on this online bulletin of parent updates.

Also, class attire wasn't accounted for between genres. It makes sense to have a strict dress code for Ballet, however, a large part of hip hop culture celebrates variety. Each class should look presentable and neat in order for the teacher to properly assess their movement. We want dancers to express their own individuality, while wearing genre appropriate attire. The strict dress code was originally implemented in the most simplistic way possible. It is being adapted slightly to meet the needs of each genre and age group. We will be taking pictures of students to create an easily viewable standard of appropriate dress.

Thank you all for being so patient. 

We are so excited about your registration. You should be able to see online material under "My Account". If you cannot, one of the following may be the problem: partial registration, incorrect email address, or other. Please schedule an appointment, so we can get this fixed for you.

Also, a quick reminder that it's Troll dress-up week. 

We ask that dancers use bathroom at home before they come. This is to help mitigate the spread of germs. 

Livestream is almost set up. It may not be by this week, but once it is, it can be found under "My Account" tab once you log in.

One last note, if your kids would draw a picture or write a thank you letter, I'd love to send them to the grantor Liaisons as a thank you. You can have them bring pictures/notes to class or fax them in. I would like to send them within a couple weeks.

Thank you parents/guardians for all you do.

Here are precautions we are taking to protect our community from greater spread of Covid-19.

Shortened class times (reduces exposure and allows for proper cleaning in between classes)

• Class start date is delayed to January 10th. If you are sick, stay home. we are working on getting Livestream set up.
• Face masks required for ages 5 & up (governor's mandate)
• Student Check-Ins (contactless forehead temperature checks)
• Hand Sanitizer stations (gel in/out)
• Individual shoe changing "cubbies" (limits contact with others and helps maintain social distance while changing shoes)
• Social Distance markers
• Only easy to clean props will be allowed and will be cleaned in between class uses.
• Sneeze guards in main office
• Closed lobby (students & scheduled appointments only). Exception: One parent for each PreDancer (ages 3-5).
• Longer time between classes allows for Ultraviolet C ray light and wipe down disinfectant.
• PreDance/Genre classes delayed until February (allows time for necessary Covid 19 procedural adaptations)​
• After class, students will exit from main side door. This helps with flow of traffic, preventing social distancing disturbances.

*If you plan on running errands, please be certain your child makes it inside the building before you leave.

• Enter wearing face mask and hand sanitize (Gel in)
• Grab plastic shoe holder, take off shoes and put shoes in container
• Contactless temperature check
• Follow Social Distance markers to wall/barre spot
• Set plastic shoe holder down and put on dance shoes at wall/barre spot
• Enjoy dancing!
• Hand sanitize (Gel out) and exit the side door

After long consideration, we have decided to postpone classes until January 2021. We want to keep all our dancers and their families safe. We will be offering prerecorded classes for the Fall. These will be available after school starts, and more information will be coming. We want to provide courses for ages 3-5. Though, we want to make sure students are able to socially distance and follow all COVID 19 implemented regulations. We may make adjustments and/or add to the schedule before January. We are looking for more teachers. If you know anyone who is interested in teaching please share this link with them

We hope to get things back to better than normal soon.
Registration for "current" students is available now.

Registration for Spring Semester 2021 classes will be available to new students Sept 1.

We are so deeply sorry for any disappointment. We are heart broken and miss you all! Good luck this year:)
