"Let us first teach little
children to breathe, to
vibrate, to feel, and to become
one with the general harmony
and movement of nature. Let
us first produce a beautiful
human being, a dancing
child.."

We will have a Spring Recital on Saturday, June 5, 2010 at 6:00pm at the BJCC Children's Theater.  
We have a mandatory Dress Rehearsal on Friday, June 4, 2010 at 1:00.

Participation in the Recital is not mandatory - however, we strongly recommend that every student
participates.  The Recital gives dancers the opportunity to perform on stage for an audience and to
showcase what they have learned.  It is the culmination of the year's A Recital Fee will be charged for
participating students to cover the costs of the recital venue, awards, recital t-shirts and admission.  
Recital costumes will be ordered for all students over Christmas Break.

custom-made and may not be returned or exchanged
.  Our instructors will measure every student
to verify proper fitting.  Costume costs will be divided into 3 payments.  The first payment will be due

We have "Watch Me!" days the first full week of every month as
an opportunity for parents to see the progress their dancers are
making in class.  We will pull the curtains back on the windows
in each dance room for viewing.  Please be considerate of the
instructors and dancers and do not wave at your child or tap on
the glass.  Please also discourage younger siblings from drawing
attention to the windows.  This can be very distracting and is
considered rude to the instructor and dancers.

The windows will not open during the months of April & May in
preparation for the Recital.
