April Easter Teaching Workshops, Party & Street Payments DUE TOMORROW xxxApril Easter Teaching Workshops, Party & Street Payments DUE TOMORROW xxx

Off to renew my HSE Compliant Emergency First Aid certificate today.

Happy ♥️ Day xx
Here are the up to date Bigs exam dances so far. I’ve got to finish off the first and choreo one more which I’ll start next week. We can film any of our routines for dancers to practise against as exams near. Fee slips will be out after half term! Have a lovely evening all xx

I’ve invested in a parachute, can’t wait to try this on the Teenys tomorrow! (It may debut this evening for a practise first class and also come out for warm ups during school holidays when the classes aren’t as full!)

PAYMENT FOR EASTER EVENTS is due by this weekend. Please pay in classes this week for the events you have booked.
CLASSES CONTINUE IN HALF TERM with the exception of TEENY SMALLS which will have one week off. Please let us know if you are away so we can mark it off and you won’t be charged.
Our sensational Katie has just choreographed this latest Street number. We are looking for just a few (3-4) dancers (older Middles to Bigs) who feel they could take on the challenge to le...arn this in just an hour in the Easter break. It will be fast paced and hard work! 😁😍
Monday 8th April 2019 (following Katie’s current Monday class) at 7-8.15 and hopefully we can then film it to include on our website. Let us know if your dancer is up for the challenge 💪 £5 to participate xx

Well this entry has brightened up a dreary Sunday! Love this. From a very talented poet and a very talented dancer, Emily x

In our first two younger classes today I wanted to recognise each individual for something specific.
We regularly give out stars during the classes for trying super hard at specific warm ups or moves, for answering questions or winning games etc and we work through our register to award ‘Dancer of the days’ but I wanted everyone to go away knowing today they did something really well (We think they all do, all the time, but children need to hear it as much as possible & in a... full class, although we strive too, its hard to recognise this individually as often as we’d like!)
So today my army of helpers took a specific dance skill, exercise, or just a great quality like listening or smiling super well and awarded individuals with their chosen achievement. They all seemed to enjoy being picked out for something and we will aim to do it with our other classes too over the next week or so!
Thank you to all our helpers for working so hard to achieve this xx

They’ve started coming back 👏

What a beautiful early birthday present from one of my super talented Middles Daisy xxx

Just under £800 of clothes orders have gone off today 😱 Thank you for getting them in. Once the order has been booked and checked it takes approximately 2 weeks for them to be delivered. I’ll then package and bring to classes asap x

All 22 spaces for our first teaching workshops in the Easter Holidays are now gone 🤩
Over 80 places have been booked in total for our Easter events with just 1 Street space available for Tues 16th April and due to moving to a bigger venue in Thrapston to accommodate, another 5 for our Easter Party on Tues 9th April.
Clothes orders will be sent off first thing tomorrow morning. We will not be accepting anymore after tonight!
... Please can I remind everyone that we ask, out of courtesy, that you let us know in advance if your pupil cannot attend a class otherwise you’ll be expected to pay for the session. There are many ways, via text, email, through this page, that are quick to do so. This is really important to us so we know our numbers & in school holidays etc we are then able to combine classes if needs be.
Many thanks xx
