February News

February Notes
We have some important news this month so PLEASE read through this note carefully.
It is very important that your dancers bring all their shoes to class each week. We are trying to set new choreography and it is very difficult to do when not everyone has their tap shoes. We will be placing an order for shoes this month. If your dancer is in need of any new shoes, please let us know so we can get them sized and place the order. The deadline is February 15th.
We would like to have Dance Technica perform at Lagoon this year. We did this 2 years ago and it was a lot of fun. All classes (except Tiny Tots) will perform in an exhibition show. This will be Saturday, June 12th. We will need at least 4 dancers from each class to commit in order for that class to go. The cost is $17 per dancer per routine. We will do this instead of the competition here in Price and instead do our Peace Gardens show that weekend. (The last weekend in April.) But anyone who would like to still compete in the solo/duet/trio competition is more than welcome to. I need to have your answer about Lagoon by the 19th of this month. Please email me telling me if you can attend or not. Dancers and Parents receive a discounted pass to get into Lagoon, or you can pay to see the performance only. We had a great time at Lagoon when we did this last time and you can make it into a fun family day. We will have more information about the Lagoon performance next month. Don’t forget to email me with your answer.
We are still waiting to hear back from CEU about performing at a basket ball game. If they can fit us in, it will be in March.
Recital dates have been set! The dance recital will be MAY 17TH at 6:30 pm. This is a Monday evening. Dress rehearsal will be the Saturday before, the 15th, starting at 1 pm for class rehearsal time and then full run through at 3 pm. I hope this works for everyone. If it doesn’t, please let me know.
Important February Performance dates:
Feb. 15th – NO CLASS
Feb. 17th – Parkdale – 6:30 pm Tiny Tots, Angels, Diamonds/Divas
Feb. 24th – Parkdale – 6:30 pm Super Minis, Minis, Stars & Jr. Elites
There WILL be class on each performance day. We will send home detailed performance notes with each dancer the class prior to each performance.
Don’t forget class pictures are on March 27th, Peace Gardens show will be April 24th and recital is May 17th.
Congratulations to those that have made the Splits Club and Donut Club already. And to everyone else – keep stretching, you have two months left.

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!
