The
Winter Follies
The
Dance Corner's third Holiday production and Toys
for Tots toy drive on December 15th was a great
success. We collected over 190 toys to
benefit The U.S. Marine Corps Reserves Toys for
Tots. Congratulations to all the performers. You
did a phenomenal job. Also, special thanks to all
staff and parents who helped to make the show a
wonderful holiday experience for
everyone. |

Dancewear
for Chilly Weather
During
these cold winter months, we understand that
students may need to wear a coverup over their
leotard at the start of class.
Please
remember that we do not allow any baggy clothing
in class. Fitted sweaters or long sleeve shirts
are fine for warm-up, as long as they don't fall
below the hips. Leg warmers are also allowed in
class.
Our
dance shop carries ballet sweaters, shrugs, and
wrap tops as well as leg warmers to keep your
dancer toasty this
winter. | |

PARENT
OBSERVATION WEEK, 1/23-1/28
During
the week of January 23rd, The Dance Corner will
invite parents into the dance studio. The end of
the year recital gives parents a chance to see
the culmination of 9 months of dance classes.
This mid-year observation week, will give
parents a chance to observe the learning process
and witness first hand the hard work that goes
on in the classroom each week.
Due
to space limitations, we can only allow one
guest per student in each class.
Waiting
area observation windows will be open as usual,
so other guests may watch from outside the
studio. Younger brothers and sisters sometimes
have trouble sitting quietly and watching for a
whole hour, and can be disruptive to the class,
so we encourage parents not to bring them.
Seating will be on the floor and in some of the
larger classes quite cramped, so observers may
want to bring a pillow or pad to sit on. Please
be prepared to REMOVE
YOUR SHOES before entering the dance
studio. No street shoes are allowed in our
studios. I encourage you all to take an hour to
come and see your child's progress.
Observers
are welcome into all classes except the Saturday
morning 9am Twinkle Babies class. Our
youngest students are very easily distracted and
won't be able to have a productive class with
observers in the room. The observation window
will be available for viewing as always.
