Celebrating our Dancers 

 

• Our Movement & Choreography dancers are just finishing up their first 12 week session and will be presenting an original piece of choreography as well as sharing a movement workshop on Friday, December 1st at 5:00 pm at the Auburn Public Library. This free event is open to all ages! Movement & Choreography class is an improvisational-based class that helps dancers to develop creative thinking and build confidence while learning the art of choreography. It is part if our creating space program

 

• Our dance team is busy preparing for their competition season that begins in February! They’ve just completed a popcorn fundraiser and will be offering concessions at the December 9th show. They have a busy season planned with at least 3 competitions, monthly team building workshops, and continuing education workshops 

 

• I want to recognize & celebrate all of our dancers for coming to class each week, and giving their best, especially as we’re quickly preparing for a show. It’s been just a short time since we’ve started classes together and already kiddos are growing so much. Thank you all for your hard work! I'm so excited to watch you shine on the 9th 

 

Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns. We are happy to help! 

 

Sincerely,

Miss Jen
