April 12 Show Run

We’re excited about our first show run of the season! These rehearsals give students the chance to build stamina, rehearse their costume changes, and feel confident heading into showtime. Show runs will take place on April 12, April 26, May 3, and May 10 from 6:00–7:30 p.m. at the studio. These sessions are open to all students in Level 1 and up. While attendance is optional for the first three dates, the final rehearsal on Saturday, May 10 is mandatory for all students.

Each student must bring a laundry basket labeled with their name to keep their personal items organized during quick changes.

Due to limited space and the need for dancers to move efficiently between routines, parents are not permitted to stay during these rehearsals. Thank you for helping us create a focused, supportive environment for our dancers!

We ask that TAs stay behind for an extra 15 minutes to help us put everything back in order after the run.

Spring Break April 13-27

Spring Break is Sunday, April 13 to Sunday, April 27, 2025. Apologies for the typo in the last newsletter. There will be no classes during this time, and regular programming will resume on Monday, April 28.

Please check the Lost & Found on Saturday for any personal items that might have been left behind. We will be clearing it out over the break.

Please note that there is a show run on Saturday, April 26, but no regular classes.
