So you signed up your 3 or 4 year for class and you are wondering how he or she will do. Here’s the most important tip to help ensure their enjoyment:

Be early to class! Especially for the first class!

The number one cause of anxiety for brand new students is missing the get acquainted time before class starts. By arriving 10 minutes early, your child has a chance to see the other children in class and acclimate to the new people and environment. The teacher will come out and introduce herself and explain the entry procedure and what will happen in class. She will point out to the children where the parents will be and how they will get a sticker at the end of class for following directions. Then students will be guided into the dance room. If anyone needs extra reassurance at that time, the teacher will ask the parent(s) to come in the dance room as well. Sometimes, a young dancer may need the presence of a parent in the room for the first few minutes of the first class or two. Once they get the hang of things, children do just fine. But being a little early to that first class is critical!

Did you know that Sugar Land Dance Center has a performing company? Company members are selected by audition and perform throughout the year. The next audition will be in early fall and is open to dancers in level 7 and above. Ask Ms. Brandy for details if you are interested. Audition times will be posted soon.

Summer classes will get underway Monday, June 21 and go through July 31, 2010. It’s not too late to register! Many classes still have openings. Call the front desk (281-491-7530) for the availability. Hone your dance skills or start a new hobby this summer; all in the comfort of an air-conditioned studio.

If you have never been to one of our summer princess camps, you are missing out! Campers spend their time at the studio dancing, playing games, decorating crowns and microphones, and having a great time. It’s too late to join for this summer, but they’ll be back again in 2011. In the meantime, stay cool and keep dancing!

Recital 2010 has come and gone and by all accounts, it was our best recital ever!

Tired of seeing all the destruction on TV? Help us DO something about it!

It’s simple. You don’t have to be an incredible dancer, you don’t even have to know how to dance! It’s 3 hours of boogie’n to awesome music. Don’t worry; you’ll get a 10 minute break each hour for refreshments and the restroom. Think you can handle that? All you need to do is ask for pledges for each hour that you dance. Tell your friends; tell your neighbors! They can get pledges and dance too. The more people dancing, the more fun it will be! Sign up at the front desk if you would like to help less fortunate people in our community.

Can’t make it Friday, but you still want to help? Paws too tender to dance? Pledge someone or help us by providing some refreshments for the dancers. Snacks and drinks would be greatly appreciated.

We have done 2 Dance-A-Thons in the past. One was for 9/11 and the other after Katrina. We were able to raise more than $1000 and $1300 respectively! Our goal this time is to raise at least $2000. With everyone’s help, we can do it!
