Picture Week

March 2nd-5th, and March 8th at Fusion Dance! Students will take their picture in a studio and then move into another studio to run their dance and/or tumbling routine. Click below for the picture week schedule. The schedule is FINAL and students MUST be present at their scheduled picture time. Please note, these may not be scheduled at your regularly scheduled time, or even on your regularly scheduled day of the week. Competition groups will take pictures only. We will run those dances in Ballet Technique classes this week. Ballet Technique, Turns Leaps & Jumps, AND Flexibility Extensions & Conditioning may also be scheduled on a different day and time than it is usually. Read through the schedule carefully. More information on how this week will be ran and do's and don'ts to ensure efficiency and keeping on schedule will come as the week approaches.
