As you already know, we are doing things a little differently this year for the holiday. In years past, we have held an informal Christmas concert at a local church. Due to the facility no longer being available, and many other financial factors, we have decided not to have the Christmas concert, but to have in-studio performances instead this year. This is for all classes NOT participating in the Nativity (more on that below).
You and your family are invited to come and watch a short performance by your dancer in the classroom, and then be part of a “class party”, complete with cake, drinks, snacks, and Christmas music! These performances will be at the same time as your regularly scheduled class. Dates for specific classes are:
Monday, Dec. 15 for Mon3 and Mon4 w/Christina classes
Tuesday, Dec. 16 for Tues1130 w/ Julie, Tues1230 w/ Julie, Tues 2:15 w/Anna, Tues3 w/Anna, Tuesday7 w/Rachel (formerly Dominique*) and Tues8 w/Rachel (formerly Dominique*), Wednesday, Dec. 17 for Wed3, Wed430, Wed530, Wed615, Wed7 all w/Ashley, and MomNMe w/Christina
Thursday, Dec. 18 for Thur330 w/Christina, and Thurs430 w/Rachel
Friday, Dec. 12 (NOT 19) for Friday tap classes and Teen ballet class
All classes participating in the Nativity will not have the in-studio performances, due to their participation in the Nativity. Also, these classes will have several dress rehearsals at the Grand between Tuesday Dec. 16 and Friday Dec. 19 (2-3 rehearsals for non-company classes, 3-5 for company levels). We will have those times for you by the first of November.
We do ask that you have your correct class leotard as soon as possible, no later than the in-studio performances, so that the children look uniform for all the candid picture taking you all will be doing!!! If you would like to assist in these parties, please let Ms. Tonya know.
As we do every year, we will be taking orders for Steps of Faith Dance Bags, and sweatshirts in the coming weeks. They make excellent Christmas presents for your dancer!! Calendars that feature our company dancers will also be for sale soon too (see back for more details).
Thank you all for your participation and dedication to our studio and ministry here. We appreciate all of you! Please contact me or Ms. Tonya with any questions…. sof@bellsouth.net or 770-606-0506.
*Ms. Dominique was no longer able to come each week to teach on Tuesdays due to the drive from Lithonia. Ms. Rachel, our Thursday HipHop teacher, has graciously taken over her classes. We plan to have Dominique come back to teach Master classes and choreography!
