Happy April, Dance Families!


Happy April, and happy spring, dance families! We hope everyone had a wonderful spring break. Classes resume this week as regularly scheduled.

April is a jam-packed month, with our elite team returning to the competition stage at Candance, dance picture week, the start of our spring session, and our hard working superstars getting ready for their annual in-class testing and recital performances.

Check out the rest of the enews for all your need-to-know details for April.

Dance Pictures

 

Dance pictures will be held during regular class time during the week of April 22-27. Dancers are asked to come to class in costume with their hair and makeup done according to the hair and makeup slip attached to each costume.

Regular classes will not run during picture week. Once dancers have completed their photos, they will be dismissed to go home.

Photo proofs will be shared with dance families 2 weeks after the completion of picture week, along with all ordering information - there is no need to pre-order photos before proofs are shared.

Register For Spring Dance

 

Age 2-3: Our 6-week Tiny Tiptoes Parent and Tot program is a fun and energetic class for toddler dancers to take with their grown up dance partner. Learning the foundations of dance, creative exploration, and musicality, all while building confidence and having fun, are key elements to this program.

 

Age 4-12: Our 8-week spring program is a great way to experience all the fun and excitement of being a Maples Academy of Dance Superstar. The combo class offers dancers an opportunity to learn a variety of dance styles in a fun and exciting dance environment.


New this year: Dancers in our spring session will have the opportunity to perform in our annual dance recital, SHINE on June 15th.

Costumes & Recital

Dress Code Reminder

 

As the warm weather comes in and seasonal fashion trends change, we want to remind all of our dancers about the importance of following our dress code.

Adherence to the dress code is an important component for safe and productive participation in dance class, by allowing for proper body alignment, proper flow of movement, overall safety, and injury prevention.
