Room Parents & Volunteers Needed! We still need quite a few room parents to help backstage at the recital, for students ages 3-10. A “Room Parent” will have the duties of staying with the children in their dressing rooms, lining them up and brining them backstage for their performance. Room Parents may watch their child from the “wings” of the stage during their performance, then walk the group back to the dressing room for the remainder of the recital. Children ages 3-4 from the creativity class may be picked up during intermission and may watch the rest of the show with Mom & Dad in the auditorium. The rest of the classes will be part of our curtain call at the end of the show. There will be TV monitors in every dressing room so students in the show can see other classes perform. Volunteers are also needed for rehearsal and the day of the show. Jobs would include: ushers/usherettes, ticket takers, selling T-shirts, flower sales and various backstage help. All volunteers will receive one complimentary ticket to give to a family member to enjoy the show. If interested in being a room parent or a volunteer, please contact Miss Amanda at 610-393-5225. Save Your Newsletters Please be reminded to save your newsletters. Each month they contain valuable information regarding the current month and looking to the future. We strongly suggest that you keep a separate file containing the newsletters. This will help in avoiding any mixed up dates etc. Attendance Attendance is imperative. As the recital date approaches quickly, please be in attendance to all classes. We understand that many students are involved with other activities that may conflict with our class schedule. However, this is not the time to miss dance, twirling and gymnastics. When students miss classes they miss new material for their routine. Then the following week the teachers have to re- teach what was missed. This is not fair to the other students who practiced all week and are ready to move on. When an illness occurs, if the student is not contagious, we still expect the student to come and watch. This will be very much appreciated by fellow students and teachers. **Themed Dance Parties ** *Anytime throughout the year we offer dance parties for your children. *There are over 25 themes for boys and girls such as: Ballerina Princess, Pop Star, and Hawaiian Luau Parties.

Adult Hip-hop Class for Exercise A new adult hip-hop class has been added to our schedule. This class will be on Mondays from 7:15-8:00p.m. It is a great way to get some exercise with out even knowing it. Join our fun Hip-hop class today! Call Miss Amanda to sign-up Attention: All 8-10 & 11-13 Combo Classes As costumes have been ordered, we noticed there was an oversight on adding the 3 row rhinestone necklaces to these classes. Some students may have them from last year and can wear them again for the recital. As for all new students we will be ordering the necklaces for picture week and the show. They will compliment the costume and add a more professional look on stage. The cost for these is $15 and you will receive them with your costume and earrings. This charge has been added to your February invoices for all 8-10 and 11-13 students who do not have them from last year. We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your cooperation. Snow days If you are unsure that there will be class due to inclement weather, call the studio at 610-393-5225. If there are no classes you will reach a voicemail that will tell you this. “I do not try to dance better than anyone else. I only try to dance better than myself” —Mihkail Baryshnikov |
