***Please only buy zills with two slots....not one single hole! ****
Bought a card? Missed a couple of classes?? What can you do now?
You can attend any regular class, use it for the field trip, workshops or private instruction!!
Each class pass slot is worth 1 hour of group instruction, or any 5 slots can equal 1 hour of private instruction.... Also I will be holding a couple of winter workshops after Thanksgiving where you can use your pass...The very last day to use your accumulated class pass: 01/15/2009 (Right before the next session begins).
STUDENT TROUPE (Hey we need a name!!)
Very exciting news! As some of you may know, I am in the process of forming a student troupe! Any Level 2 or above student is welcome...there will also be soloist auditions coming. The goal of the new troupe is to perform in community related events and shows throughout the Pittsburgh and surrounding area. We will work on a "show" which will involve group choreography, both new and old, as well as duets, trios and solos. In the coming year, the troupe will perform at least 2-4 times per year.
Time and financial commitments are in the process of being finalized, but I can tell you that any troupe member should be willing to attend 1 technique class and the troupe class per semester at a minimum...and you would be expected to purchase a costume. (Hey that's the fun part right??!!) Troupe nights will be held on Fridays, with an occasional Sunday/Saturday. Please contact me directly if you are interested!
WINTER WORKSHOP SERIES -- Dates and Times TBA
Since winter is often very quiet as we hustle around from Holiday to Holiday and the weather gets frightful, I'll be hosting a series of 2 hour workshops...
Topics include:
Hope to see everyone soon!
