Important Dates for students

12:30PM, 4PM OR 7:30PM? On May 17:
Many of you are asking which concert your dancer will appear. That information is posted on the lobby wall NOW! Sr. Co and Appr. Companies will appear in all three. Tickets are on sale April 14: $7 each. The evening show will feature the companies’ full repertoire, so if you dance earlier, come back to the evening show to experience this inspiring show! Come back later on this blog to get your class' times....

DRESS REHEARSALS May 13-16:
We will have dress rehearsals at the Grand Theatre on Tuesday-Friday, May 13-16. Each class will be given 15-30 minutes (sometimes more) to rehearse their dances on stage. We will have rehearsals somewhere between 3pm and 9pm for most classes (and in the morning for the morning classes), and yours should coincide, as much as possible, to your weekly class time of day. Be looking for the schedule in the coming weeks. There will be NO regularly scheduled classes that whole week (Monday-Sat.) to allow you time to get to the Grand. Companies may have called rehearsals at the studio on that Monday, May 12th, TBA.

PICTURE DAY May 10:
As you may have noticed, picture day was moved to May 10th. This was to insure all the costumes would be here in time. Some costumes are coming the first week of May, so please be patient. We took pains to make sure we had the costumes we needed, and on time! After they are sorted and labeled, you will get to take them home!
So on Saturday, May 10, we will meet HERE at SOF for professional pictures by Tonsmiere Photography. You will be able to purchase groups and individual shots of your dancer, and a percentage of all sales will go to SOF‘s ministry. We very much want EVERYONE to be in the group pictures (even if you do not intend on buying any) so that your class’ picture will be complete when I hang it on the studio wall! WE NEED ALL OF YOU! It’s so exciting to get to see your faces on our wall year after year. This schedule is already posted in the studio, and will be posted here shortly.

Dress Rehearsal schedules will be posted no later than April 7 in the lobby.
