Ballet Classes offered!

DancElation is excited to have Brittney Smith who has a strong ballet/dance and teaching background. She will be coming into some of my competition classes for 30min ballet instruction. Her family purchased a new house and so will be moving soon- but we are so pleased to have her help instruct for as long as we can have her:). We also want to welcome Jessica Groom. She has a strong passion and love for dance and would love to instruct anyone who is interested in developing ballet technique which is the core for most dance styles. She is teaching a few ballet classes on Tuesdays and would invite those who are interested in a Ballet Technique Class from 4-5:30pm and a Ballet Performance Class from 5:30-7pm. Please contact for any questions regarding classes. More classes may be made as demand grows. REMINDER: CLASSES START NEXT WEEK!!!!!! and Dance Workshop is still open for registration but yo need to act ASAP!

Dance Workshop-Awesome Opportunity/Experience!

This year we have a great opportunity to participate in a dance workshop on Saturday, September 19th. Three amazing and talented choreographers/dancers will give technique and dance instruction to all levels and ages of dancers. I strongly encourage students who love to dance and have the desire to become better to take this workshop-especially those interested in competition teams. It is $115 for the whole day per dancer which includes lunch and gift, but if I get 15 dancers registered they will give us $10 off per dancer. We can carpool down to Logan for those that want to go. I can't reiterate how much of a great opportunity this could be for your dancer. Please contact me ASAP if you are interested. The sooner we are registered, the better. Thank You!

Ready....:)

So, it is set. I have a new place to call "dance home". It is located west of Carlos and Harleys, in the same building as the Copy Center, Healing Tree etc. I have A LOT to do to get it dance ready. So....here is the official schedule. Next week, Thursday the 27th, we will have Competition Team try-outs for DancElect and DancElite. It is a half day so I will have tryouts from 2pm - 4:30pm. Tryouts will be set up to consist of warm up/stretches, across the floor/on floor technique, combo/choreograpy learning. They will be put into small groups and asked to perform dance combo and then individually called out to perform certain technique.(splits, leg holds, pirouettes, leaps etc.) Please wear appropriate dance attire and bring dance shoes-big possibility the floor will still be carpet at that time. I am looking for strong performance technique, musicality, and showmanship. I will email team placement results by Friday night. No matter what performance comp team the girls are placed on, they will receive dance instruction/choreography that will be fun and push their indivuidual abilities, so I am sure they can't go wrong no matter what team they are placed on. They will all get to compete at least once whether it is DancExcel, DancElect, or DancElite. All I require is a positive attitude, and a work hard ethic. Dance Classes will officially start the 2nd week of September- Wednesday September 9th and Thursday September 10th. Please come the scheduled dance time with Dance Enrollment forms, Registration Fee $30, and September Tuition. That will still get us 4 dance weeks in for September and give me an extra week to get things ready:) I am still hoping to get some ballet classes set for Tuesdays so make sure you subscribe to my blog so you can keep updated on all my new posts. Let's GO!!!!!

Class time/days posted

 1)   $30 Registration Fee per student due
 2)    Registration forms filled out and signed. Forms will be available at studio or print off and fill out beforehand.
 3)    1st months tuition due

I will be doing -$5  sibling discount this year. For example, if you have two kids doing a one hour class each, one child will be regular price ($35) and 2nd child will get $5 off ($30) I slightly increased tuition this year because I am in the process of renting my own space.  If all goes well, my new studio will be in the old Montessori School building in Eden, west of Carlos and Harley's. :) Central location from the Junior High and Elementary schools, more parking, and safer environment but a bigger financial investment for me- I tried to minimize the hike as best I could.

Monthly tuition
1 hr - $35
1 1/2 hr - $52
2 hr- $65
3 hr- $88
4 hr- $108

Class Schedule-(this schedule is pretty set (85% :) I switched older girls class to Wednesday, tried to end it so they could make their mutual activities.   I am hoping to add other classes during the week such as ballet, but waiting to hear back :) I feel it important for any student wanting to be on a
competitive team to take a ballet class. I work with all classes on basic technique/terminology but it would greatly enhance their dancing/vocabulary to take a ballet class too. I am waiting to see if it will work out with a new ballet teacher I have been talking with. :)
