Silver Anniversary Year!

I can't believe summer has come to an end already but we are so excited to begin a new dance and school year! We will be celebrating our 25th anniversary this year and couldn't be more excited to share in this amazing accomplishment with all of  you! Please note the following information:

Danceline

Danceline placements have been given out and classes are in full swing. Our Danceline program is a wonderful way for dancers progress quickly and is usually their first entrance into the competitive side of dance. Our instructors' creative wheels have been turning and they have some wonderful routines planned. I can't wait to see the final results.

Showteam

 
Showteam fall schedule began last night. Please look to the schedule for class times. We have been working hard all summer on technique. I'm sure your muscles can feel it! Your hard work this summer has not gone unnoticed and we LOVE to see the progression in each of our hard working dancers. Keep up the great work. On Monday evenings we offer a Turns and Leaps class that is a wonderful addition to any dancer's technique. Dancers who enroll in this class progress quickly and it shows in their dance.

 

For all of our competitive teams please remember that we are beginning ChOrEoGrApHy and it is imperative that you are in class. We understand there are situations that can't be avoided however if at all possible don't skip class. We miss you when you aren't here!

Boot camp will be the evening of Friday, August 21st and all day Saturday, August 22nd. We will be doing a TON of technique and choreography as well as team building and a LOT of fun. I know you are all looking forward to this weekend as much as I am. We always have a crazy, fun time!

Recreation Dance

Recreation classes as well as Preschool will begin August 31st. We have two more open houses scheduled on August 17th and 18th. This is a great time to come in, meet the teachers, get required dancewear, and fill out registration forms. You may also register online at shawdance.com for any of these classes. Our teachers have been taking workshops all summer and have some fun and creative ideas to implement in their classes this year.

Preschool

For those who are unfamiliar with our preschool program CHECK IT OUT! We have a top notch academic preschool that focuses on Kindergarten readiness. Our curriculum focuses on letters, numbers, colors, shapes, and basic sight words. The transition into Kindergarten for Shaw Preschool graduates has been a breeze and we are very proud of their accomplishments.  Check out our program. You will be glad that you did.

From the bottom of my heart THANK YOU for your patronage, friendship, and loyalty. We have been able to continue operating as a strong studio for so many years because of YOU! I look forward to celebrating a wonderful "silver" anniversary year together!

Love,

Jana Shaw
