December 2018

We want to take the time this holiday season to thank you all for being a part of our 24/7 family. We really love having you here. Parent Observation Week was fantastic! Thanks for coming into our classrooms to see what your performers have been up to.

Thank you to all of our artists who helped decorate our walls with thoughts of gratitude on many brightly colored turkeys. Thank you also to everyone who donated food for the hungry and who made cards for our Veterans. Your generosity is greatly appreciated.

We continue to encourage hand washing and please keep your children home if they are sick. Just call the studio to let us know if your child will not be in class. Your child can make up missed classes until the end of January.

We want to wish you all the warmest of holiday wishes joy!

Gina Korrell, Artistic Director

AMBASSADOR MESSAGE

I know some of us tired and stressed out because of school, dance, and other sports. Breaks are always needed but we have a few more weeks. I challenge you to give your classes your all and just have fun. Here is a little something to remind us why we do what we do. Love you all and I can’t wait to see all your hard work at recital 😊

-Anyae’ Glover <3

I am a dancer.

I twirl, leap, and spin.

I jump, pirouette, and tap.

I am a dancer.

I feel pain and fear.

I feel defeat and failure.

Yet, I keep going.

I smile, I practice, I perform.

I have grace and beauty.

I do not dance because I am happy,

I am happy because I dance.

I hear the applause.

I perform and do my best.

Sometimes I fail.

I don't give up.

For I am a dancer.

I am brave and strong.

I dance not for fame and glory.

But for how I feel inside.

I am happiness, joy, love, and excitement.

Strife, talent, joy.

Determination and beauty.

I am a dancer.
