Happy New Year & Wellness Precautions

We look forward to welcoming everyone back to dance when the studio reopens on Sunday, January 8th! We continue to be a mask-friendly environment and encourage mask wearing in our facility, especially while in the lobby. Mask wearing is not mandatory.

Feeling unwell? Cold symptoms? Stay home & join your class over Zoom instead 😀 We are pleased to offer the option of joining remotely to help students keep up with their class while keeping germs out of the building. Send us an email before your class & we will turn the virtual studio on for any class. Virtual links for students to join from home are available under your classes in the student & parent portal.

Santa Claus Parade

What a day we had for the Hyde Park Santa Claus Parade at the end of November! The warmest and sunniest weather we have had for a parade day. These children danced along Gainsborough Road, spreading Christmas cheer from start to finish.

Congratulations to all the performers. We are so proud of you.
