Dear Parents and Dancers,

I’d like to personally welcome you to Dance Warehouse and to our 2015-2016 dance season! Our faculty and staff are prepared and ready to bring your child the best dance education we possibly can. Our goal is to provide a valuable service for your child, one that is professional, one that teaches quality dance, one that encourages self-esteem, and one that helps your child develop a love for the art of dance.  

As you read in your dance packet, Dance Warehouse will be expanding this year! I realize you may have questions about this addition.  This space is a temporary studio space.  We do have plans for a bigger space (under one roof) in the future.  

Unfortunately, the new space will not be ready when dance begins on August 17th.  Those of you whose child has class at studio C should have been contacted by his/her teacher through an email stating the temporary change in your child’s class time.  If your child is enrolled in Strength and Stretch, Pom/Dance Team, or Contemporary class, these three classes will begin once Studio C is open.  Tuition will be adjusted for these classes.  

I understand this may have  been an unexpected change and I apologize for any inconvenience.The new space will be a great help in accommodating the additional and new classes we are offering to benefit the education of our dancers.We are looking forward to a great year of dancing!  

   Sincerely,  

   Stephanie

• It is HOT outside!  If you are coming and going dropping off in the lobby PLEASE remember to keep the outside door closed.  The Lobby will get extremely hot if that door is left open.  Thanks in advance.  
• Parking can be crazy at times!  Please be aware of your surroundings when parking at the studio. Older students are instructed to remain on the porch until they see their parent.  Younger students will remain in the classroom until the teacher sees their parent.   CARPOOLING   is always a good idea!
• LABEL ALL SHOES! We do our best to keep the shoe-changing organized, but occasionally some get left behind.  There is a lost and found in each room.  Be sure to label all shoes so you don't end up having to buy a new pair.
• TUESDAY STUDIO A classes have been pushed back 15 minutes.  Please check the schedule on the website to make sure you are coming to class at the correct time.  

 

 

Please welcome Trisa McLaughlin and Brianne (Bri) Montgomery Sanford to our DW Staff!
