Happy New Year 2022!

Your dance teachers have had a busy fall, especially November and December.
October 29-31, Mr Josh, Ms Sarah, Ms Sunny, and students Becca, Rae, Walter, Hannah, and former student Jessica, attended the Dance Network of South Dakota Fall Intensive. Classes were taught in tap, modern, jazz, contemporary, hip hop, and ballet. Teachers were Bill Evans, Andrea Vazquez, Jeremy Edmonton, and Dr. Debra Knapp. This workshop was held at Barefoot Dance Studio in Rapid City. 

November 13 & 14, Mr Josh, Ms Sarah, Ms Sunny and Becca attended the Northern Plains Cecchetti Council Fall Dance Workshop in Aberdeen. Becca passed her Grade VI/Professional Intermediate Cecchetti exam with Examiner Sandra Glenn. The Aberdeen workshop also had good classes in tap, hip hop and contemporary, in addition to ballet, and were enjoyed by all who took them.

Thé Joy of Christmas showcase was well attended. Some dancers had a short rehearsal time but the students did well.

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.
