We miss you all, but we also hope you are finding rest and relaxation this summer break. We're very pleased to announce that our fall schedule has now been released and that we'll be returning to class in person (with safety protocols in place). Registration will begin on July 26th for returning families and August 2nd for other newsletter subscribers, so please take a look. You can also view our tuition and policy page for details (including pricing, dates, and Covid-related safety policies), and don't forget to watch your inbox for notification when registration begins.
WELCOME, NEW FACULTY!
We are thrilled to welcome Erin Coyne and Abigail Hinson to our teaching staff! Teacher Erin and Teacher Abigail are both experienced teachers as well as dancers and choreographers who will be bringing their passion for teaching and their love of dance to the studio starting this fall. You can learn more about Erin, Abigail, and all of our teachers on our "about" page (scroll down).
HOW TO SELECT A CLASS
Continuing students are invited to return to their same time slot, even if its level has increased. You may also select any other time slot of that same level.
New beginning students may register for any age-appropriate class that follows the prerequisite requirements (feel free to contact Angela if you meet the age requirements but not the prerequisites--she'll help you find the right class).
New students entering at the intermediate level or higher will have the opportunity to audition. To schedule an audition, please contact Angela.
ZOOM RECORDINGS SENT!
Spring dancers who recorded a Zoom performance last spring were sent a link to your performance recordings through Activity Hero in June. Didn't get it? Email Leila.
MOVEMENT OF THE MONTH: A.M. STRETCH!
Maintain flexibility during the summer break by encouraging your dancers to stretch every morning upon waking. Here is a five-minute stretch that's great for the whole family.
DANCE IN THE NEWS: TEACHER EMILY, RMK, & BRINGING BACK THE ARTS TO SF
Teacher Emily, pictured as our newsletter photo this month, was recently spotted downtown as part of a dance partnership between Robert Moses' Kin dance and Karen Flood of the Flood Building. The company is working in the storefront previously vacated by The Gap in a residency, "The Vital Heart of S.F.," that aims to generate new choreography and attract shoppers back to storefronts. Read more about the project--and don't forget that your dancers can study with Emily in her new one-hour contemporary class (among other opportunities; see the new schedule for details).
QUICK TIP: CROSS TRAIN!
While taking a break from dance this summer, consider engaging in other modalities that promote physical and energetic awareness like yoga, martial arts, and more.
