Fall is here and classes are well underway. We hope that everyone is happy with their classes. Thank you to everyone who participated in Bring a Friend Week! It was a wonderful week to share our love of the arts.
With the fall season also comes the cold & flu season. We try very hard to keep the studio clean. Please, if your child is sick, don't bring them to class. We can always schedule a make-up class for them. If your child is unable to make it to class, please let us know by calling the studio at 301-846-4247.
As the weather gets colder, dancers should make sure they wear their jackets/coats when leaving the dance studio. Even though their bodies are warm, they need to cover up to prevent injury to their muscles.
Dance shoes must never be worn outside! By saving your dance shoes for studio use only, you not only protect the life of the shoe but our dance floors as well. PreDance and Combo students should replace their tap ties with plain black elastic to prevent trip factors. Ask the front desk for information on how to do this.
As always, don't hesitate to contact us if you have any
 questions, suggestions, or concerns. We are always here to help.
Sincerely,
Gina Korrell, Artistic Director

Hey, it's B,
As you may know, October is National Bullying Prevention month. Being such, I ask that you make a good effort to include people and make everyone feel comfortable and welcome, especially if they are new to the studio. Try standing next to or going across the floor with someone that you typically don't and get to know  them! You never know what you may have in common and you could even become good friends! This month I also ask that you be a bit more mindful of how you treat others than usual. You don't know how something you say or do may affect someone. If you happen to see someone being bullied, don't be a bystander. Doing nothing makes the bully think that treating people this way is okay. If you feel safe doing so, defend the person being bullied! Tell the bully that what they're doing isn't cool and that they should stop. However, If you don't feel comfortable confronting the bully yourself, go talk to someone about it! People you can talk to include your dance teacher, parent, Ms. Gina, or one of the student ambassadors like myself. Don't forget about Anti-Bully week and feel free to wear blue to show your support to stomp out bullying! Be kind and have a spooky October everybody!
