Think Spring,

Wow! It's hard to believe that spring and our April show are just around the corner. Costumes have begun to arrive without any problem due to address change. Praise the Lord!

Costumes will be given out at class time in April as soon as they are here. A couple of orders may not arrive until the 2nd week of April.

PLEASE NOTE: Run Through Rehearsals have been moved from Monday nights to the first two Friday nights in April in the multi-purpose room from 5:30-8 p.m. Pre Ballet does not need to come until 6 p.m. All other dancers will need to be there for warm-up at 5:30 p.m.

The reason for the change of plans is that the YMCA has scheduled a class after our 5:30 p.mm. class on Mondays and Friday night was the only night where we had a two hour time slot reserved for classes. Thank you for your understanding.

We continue to progress with choreography. There are still some special dance numbers to teach, a finale dance, a second jazz dance, a trio, a couple of duets and battle dance. AND WE PRESS ON TOWARD THE MARK.

It is our plan to do this show again in December on the weekend of the 15th. And yes, we have reserved the dates already. We have other dance numbers we would like to add to the show.

Sarah and Josh Easter and I have been to the studio storage unit to do a search for props and costume accessories for this show and God is just so amazing. You would have to see the small space, crammed to the top, to understand but i was able to put my hands on everything we needed.

Josh and Sarah Easter, Abbey Nold, Emily Plumage and Ms. Sunny danced In Christ Alone and Shekinah for St. John's Catholic Church the last week of December.

Several of us are looking at the summer intensives in Kansas City, MO, and Jackson, MS.

Student Examinations

If you or your student are interested in getting started with Cecchetti student examinations let us know.

Ballet III and up are eligible to start working on Grade 1. Examinations take a lot of preparation, study, and commitment.
(Normally 1-2 years is spent studying per grade. More as you progress through the grades.)

Our studio is affiliated with the Cecchetti Council of America. All teachers hold certificates in the Cecchetti Method.
