COMPANY CHRISTMAS PERFORMANCES
We have our Christmas show complete and are ready to perform for any holiday parties that might want a little entertainment! If you are interested, please let us know!
We will also be filming our Christmas Performance video on December 16th at 7pm. If you are interested in watching the process, swing by the studio and become our studio audience. 😉
CINNAMON ROLL FUNDRAISER
The cinnamon rolls are on their way & will arrive by next week. We know these are a highlight for many families & we are just as excited to deliver them to you. If you ordered from a company dancer, they will be reaching out to plan delivery. If you ordered through the studio link, I will be reaching out next week but plan to pick them up during your scheduled class time. Thanks again to all that ordered! We hope you love them & that they warm your bellies over the holidays!
DECEMBER SPIRIT WEEK & OBSERVATION WEEK
Our monthly spirit week is coming up NEXT WEEK – December 12th-16th. We are going with an ELF ON THE SHELF theme so feel free to wear your favorite Christmas gear whether that be an elf costume or Christmas pj’s or an ugly sweater…anything goes. Please be sure to follow basic dress code rules: midriff & bottoms covered, hair pulled back & appropriate shoes. NEW THIS YEAR – we are inviting up to 2 people per student to watch the last 10min of class! Please click on the attachment below for rules & guidelines. We will surely be dancing to Christmas tunes & we may even have a dance to show.

JINGLE HOP
It’s time for the Jingle Hop again!! We are loving this annual tradition! This year the theme is OH SNAP, IT’S CHRISTMAS!! It most certainly requires a prop so they will get that next week! They will learn the Jingle Hop in class & our hope is that at least one family member will also learn it (there will be a partner section). The family partner can Zoom in to class or learn from the instructional video we will send out. Don’t be shy…please learn the dance, film it with your dancer & either tag us on your favorite platform or send us the video so we can include you in our video montage!! The sillier you get, the BETTER!! We would love to blow up social media with our dance & spread some FUN holiday cheer!!! The silliest video – choreography must be included – will win a prize!!
WINTER BREAK
Winter Break is right around the corner!! The studio will be closed from December 19th-January 8th. We hope this break gives you plenty of time for celebration, R&R, and a week to get back into the swing of things before dance begins again. Enjoy & we will be oh so ready to see you in the New Year!
LATE PAYMENTS
We understand that automatic payments don’t always go through. We will however be assessing a $30 NSF fee if account balances aren’t paid by the 5th business day of the month. We will continue to communicate any issues from our end & appreciate you taking care of them as soon as possible.
