We are located at 1155 Redway Drive in the Solar Suites Building, in Redway, downstairs in the room with the double glass doors. Class levels start with pre-ballet, and go through training for teens. Classes for the youngest students incorporate creative movement, spatial awareness and an introduction to classical ballet steps; older dancers study classical ballet, character dance, contemporary dance, and pilates. All students can participate in two dance productions a year.

Fall schedule ideas

Hi, I hope summer is going well for you! I wanted to touch base with you about a few fall schedule plans.
 
The most important change is that Nina’s class might be Tuesdays at 3:30. The next level, Dance to Your own Tune, would be Thursday at 3:30.
 
Mondays and Wednesdays, at 3:30, would be for the next levels, pre-primary and primary, as a once or twice a week option.
 
Mondays and Wednesdays, from 4:15-5:30 would be for a grade 1 and 2 level class, mostly for grade school aged students, depending on the enrollment.
 
Tuesdays and Thursdays 4:15-6:15, will be for the teens.
 
Saturdays are reserved for working on exam syllabus, each level meeting at a different time starting at 9am.
 
Monday and Wednesday at 5:30 are still undecided. I heard a little birdie whisper that there might be an adult jazz class on Mondays……..
 
**I would like to start a barre workout class soon, I may have found the right program. It will include some pilates mat work for a warm-up and some stretching at the end.
At this time, I plan on teaching it Tuesday and Thursday mornings. I am thinking 9am after kids are dropped off at school.
What do you think?
 
So, nothing is solidified, this schedule is a rough draft version until we have a teacher meeting early August, but I wanted to get my thoughts out to everyone.

Fair mishap!

 

Fair info for moms of Nina’s students!!! I realized last night that a misunderstanding had developed around the fair schedule. The Ewoks are only dancing Sunday, as was always planned. Saturday is act 1, Sunday acts 2 and 3. Check in at the tent behind the main stage at 11, ready to dance at 11:45, show starts at noon. I will call everyone also…..
