Alice Herauf invited us to perform during Slater Grade School's last assembly. They have some gals singing "Let it Go" from the movie Frozen, so we thought it would be fun to have Ballet II perform "In Summer" on  June 10th at 1:45. However the dancers need to be in costume by 1:30 before the assembly starts and bring your top hats as well. This will be a great practice before the recital. I will need all dancers to sit together so it will run more smoothly.

June 12^th Dress rehearsal

5-6 pm creative movement, pre-ballet, and ballet I

6-7 pm ballet II, and ballet III

You may stay for the entire rehearsal if you wish as this will be your child’s opportunity to watch the other dancers.

June 13^th Performance Day, please be there by 5:30 so we can warm up and be ready to start on time at 7 pm. Please bring 2 dozen cookies per family for the after show reception. If you have a Mickey Mouse ears/hat you would let me display as a decoration for the recital let me know. After the creative movement class performs parents may come get their children and have them sit with them. All other dancers need to stay in the dressing rooms. We will reserve a section for these parents toward the back so as not to disrupt the performance.

June 21^st Ballet Pool Party for all dancers. 10am to Noon. We will have a short ballet class for ballet I and up, then free swim! Snacks and drinks provided. Parents please stay if your child can not swim.

August 5-7, 3 day ballet camp. Please register soon, so I can get my class schedule set up. This is a great way to keep technique going during the summer. New this year I will be offering an additional “Beginner’s Class” during the camp. $20 5-8 $30 9-teen.

September 12^th Fall semester begins. As a courtesy, please let me know if your child does NOT plan on continuing ballet in the fall as soon as you know. I have a waiting list and I need to know how many spots I have available. I have new registration forms that I need filled out for this fall that I have distributed, so I can keep updated information on file.  I will need them each fall.

I love teaching ballet to your wonderful children!

Merci Beaucoup
