April is an exciting time at the studio! Our recital students are finishing up their recital choreography, our exam dancers are putting the finishing touches on their syllabus work and our competitive dancers are hitting the stage. As we move through this busy time at the studio we are so thankful to be sharing the experience with our incredible Footprints Family.

As we get closer to showtime, it is so important for our dancers to be in class. Please continue to alert us through your parent portal of any absences.

We can’t wait to get these dancers on the stage soon!

Monthly Intention – Bring the Heat

Each month of our dancing year will highlight one of those ‘life lessons’ that dance gives us through our monthly intentions. Our monthly intention for April is BRING THE HEAT! As we approach recital season, we plan to give our dancers extra motivation and determination to reach their dance goals this season. The hard work has to happen in the studio now, for our dancers to shine on stage in June!
