• New Mirrors for the Dance Studios

  Funded Aug 3, 2023

  Thank you for your generous donation. Our new mirrors look so much better! All of our dancers in class can see themselves and it truly made a huge difference in our dance studio. The new mirrors allow all dancers to see themselves and in dance this is very important. Being able to see yourself in a mirror while dancing helps dancers make corrections to their form and technique. The new mirrors have also made the dance space look much more professional. Creating a professional environment in the dance studio encourages dancers to try their very best. Thank you so much!”

• Dance Team Tap Shoes

  Funded Jan 23, 2023

  Thank you so much for the generous donations provided. These donations allowed us to purchase a new set of Tap shoes for our dance studio. Our old tap shoes were very worn and the taps kept falling off the shoes when the dancers would use them. With these new tap shoes they were able to learn the skills necessary to perform in our Spring Show.

  The Spring Show featured a tap dance performed by our 7th and 8th grade students. It was a huge success and the dancers truly enjoyed performing in tap. They loved every minute!

  Thank you again so much for your support!”

  Thank you so very much for your support. With your donations we were able to purchase two wagons for our dance program. These wagons have made our lives much easier, especially during shows. We can now transport costumes and items needed to rehearsals and shows very easily. We have also had students help us with the wagons.

• New Mirror for the Dance Studio!

  Funded May 3, 2022

  Thank you so much for your support! With your donation we were able to purchase one large mirror to fill the entire space in the dance room. This mirror has made it possible for all students to see themselves, even if they are standing on the edge of the room. This is so helpful, especially in our large dance classes. The students have also commented on how nice the new mirror looks! It makes the dance room complete and brings me so much joy to know that all students can now see themselves. In dance it is very important to be able to see yourself in the mirror. It helps students makes necessary corrections to improve. Thank you so much!”
