TSOD PERFORMING TEAMS 2022-23   08/22

Welcome– We are excited to begin a new year of competitive dance and are happy you have joined us!

*On Mon. Sept. 19th @7:30pm at the studio we will have a parent meeting to go over what is involved with being a member of our competitive teams. This meeting is required for parents of dancers new to performing  experienced parents are welcome if you would like to come or have questions but it is not required.             

Communication will be an important part of a successful year.  Being a member of our performing teams does involve more time, more work and more money, but is also reaps more rewards, more fun and much growth. 

This is the only paper note we will be sending out. We will do all communication by email from here on. Please make sure we have a correct and working email for you on file and make sure you check it regularly.

This note will be emailed in the next few days as well, if you do not receive it please let us know. 

Our First Performance will be the USU Homecoming Parade Sat. Oct. 8th  We are ordering new travel jackets. We will be using these jackets for a couple of years so we would like parent input on sizing. 

We have try on sizes in the office for you to try on your dancer and order the size you would like. 

 RUSH! We must get our order in by Sept. 8th in order to possibly have them by the parade so if you have not sized your dancer by Sept. 8th we will size for you. 

We are still working on the cost and will let you know once we get the design nailed down. There will also be a small pom pom/participation fee that we will added to the jacket price to cover parade expenses. This will all be due Oct. 1st.

Attendance:We have a fun year and exciting numbers planned and are beginning right away.  Please make every effort to attend classes and be prompt. This is a crucial time of year as we are learning new choreography and setting the numbers, we need dancers in attendance.  We did not require try-outs but we do require commitment! You are a member of a team and we are counting on each and every member to do their part. 

Performing Costumes: We are busy making decisions and will be ordering soon. $$ will be due in Oct. amounts TBA 

WORKSHOPS: We bring professional, experienced and exciting teachers to our studio to enhance your dancers education at a fraction of the cost of attending conventions. These workshops are MANDATORY for ALL PERFORMERS as specified by age.
